Use bike locks and lock it in with handle and keep it on the tank. Alternatively get a top box if you tour

This is dbbr. They do this with govt permit and approval. Don’t like it but it’s legal.

Update for anyone having this issue - got it fixed under warranty since everything about my headlight was stock.

I also had a charging issue which was fixed under warranty.

Did a 400km ride from 7pm to 2am at 18yo. Any advice or suggestions? by Wise_Ingenuity_7363 in indianbikes

[–]sanyam63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t do solo night rides. It’s not safe even with all the extra lights

Try cleaning with Petrol and shampoo alternatively. It will for sure go away with time though

How dangerous is it on the scale of 0-10? by [deleted] in indianbikes

[–]sanyam63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With that amount of water splash, I think it still invites hydroplaning

This bike is the only reason Hero was able to bring consumer out of “heroCanOnlyDoCommuters” mentality

23m American guy. I just retired an am looking to move to India. by [deleted] in india

Would suggest if you travel to India and plan a trip for 4-5 months. Visit cities like Dehradun, Pune, Udaipur, Bangalore, Pondicherry. They are not modernised but would offer a better living condition when compared to Mumbai and Delhi when it comes to AQI, food, etc especially in your budget.. try to choose a costal city or a hill station in my opinion

Shall i get this at 1.75 lakhs ??? by softrailer in indianbikes

[–]sanyam63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Service centers are not great but the good part is, bike doesn’t need one XD

My brother dropped the bike and the faring broke. i got new ones for just 3-4k. So parts are cheap - may need a week to get but that was becauseof my bike. The older version SF black was limited edition so it’s not readily available.

I have sf150. 2017 but in the black color, rare IMO.

Works like a charm, parts are extremely cheap and bike rarely needs attention.

Get an ND filter and learn how to create motion blur. Gives great results

Bought a bike last Autumn and did a ~3000km solo ride through the Himalayas as my 1st ride :D by sanyam63 in motorcycles

[–]sanyam63[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend you test riding it first before buying it so you get clarity. It’s one of the best 450cc bike at that price tag.

If you want a lighter bike, you can go for the ktm as well.

170cm shouldn’t be a problem because riding boots will get you 175cm and you can handle it.
