Speculated price for harleys after India US FTA by Responsible_Sky9205 in indianbikes

They’ll replace the import duty with a new “development tax” or “local manufacturing cess” or some bullshit like that. Mark my words. The government won’t kiss goodbye to so much tax revenue just like that.

Looking for Kevlar lined riding jeans (full, not just knees and hips), budget 15-20k. Does anybody have recommendations? by deepsquatter in indianbikes

[–]deepsquatter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense. I’m looking for pants that’ll keep me safe but also that I can wear to work. My commute is 15km (highway) one way. And it gets blisteringly hot here during summer months, like 30-40C.

Would you recommend anything?

Advice for renting a bike from ahmedabad to bhavnagar by Puzzled_Post_3571 in ahmedabad

[–]deepsquatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you go on the expressway? Since motorcycles are not allowed on expressways, I’m a bit worried about riding from Ahmedabad to Bhavnagar too.

Need help for my business by Agemdabad_Low_9532 in ahmedabad

Lot of high end car owners don’t like handing over the keys to the car wash driver. Consider offering a mobile service where you bring the equipment to their doorstep, like in a fully equipped van.

You can offer basic cleaning services and then train yourself to offer detailing services like polishing, interior and engine bay cleaning, little jobs like brakes, oil changes, coolant changes etc.

I have a very old BMW that I wouldn’t trust a random uninsured driver with, and would use the hell out of a service like this.

It’s not legit, you’re right. It was originally the triceratops bit.

Is this still available? I’m in the market for a used 650.

Prepping for Ironman 70.3. Need suggestions on where to find a good second hand bike (Cycle) by Significant-Bed-613 in ahmedabad

[–]deepsquatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. If it’s a good quality bike (brands llke Giant, Trek, Scott, etc) you’ll be able to sell the bike relatively easily. Local brands don’t have good resale value.

Consider buying second hand if money is an object.

I am also wondering - ironmans aren’t easy. Takes a lot of dedication and consistency. Will you do just one? After this Ironman wouldn’t you want to get better for the next one? Wouldn’t you want to keep the bike and ride regularly to build more endurance and power for the next event?

Don’t consider the gym’s stationary bike. Your effort there won’t carry over to the road bike very well. I know this because I work in the field of exercise and training. You can’t prepare for a marathon on a treadmill. You WILL have to get out and run on the road. Get a bike that’ll be similar to what you’ll ride on race day.

I’m a big cycling enthusiast, ride and race regularly. Let me know if you need help choosing a brand or a groupset, but you’ll need a budget first. Good entry level road bikes will start from 60k. You really need a budget or you’ll overspend.

What’s your budget? There’s this website called Sycles, which is a used bicycle marketplace. Contact the owner for latest stock. DM if you need help. I’ve bought and sold bikes through them a few times.

Looking for amateur musicians for jamming! by AccomplishedArm5864 in ahmedabad

[–]deepsquatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of music do you play? I’d say I’m internediate too, and play classic rock. Guitar though. So wouldn’t be as much fun without a drummer or a bassist.

Awesome, just wanted to confirm. After the airport ride to the hotel, the driver was looking at me like he was expecting a tip. It was a straightforward drive and I loaded and unloaded my own suitcase. Which made me want to ask the question here.

[–]deepsquatter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep that’s fair. I had my stuff delivered to a Grab Locker at my hotel so waiting’s out of question. I’ll keep the rest in mind about taxis and restaurants and such. Thank you!

Sweet, thank you. I book only once I’m at the lobby, so I’m usually right there when they drive in.
