xbhp magazine helped me a lot in learning about motorcycles. twist the throttle from keith code is also good along with his DVD.

update: I have decided i won't buy a KTM :( With so many issues people are reporting, it doesn't feel like it will serve me well for next 8 years or so. I will stick to honda and yamaha. I will try to increase my budget for R3/BN300

I will think about it once CBR300 is launched. Will see if new buyers of ktm 390 series are reporting any issues. The only reason i am considering CBR is because of its reliability, which might not be the best, but its far better than ktm from what i see. I don't even like for anything else, its...

Hey guys, i am in the last semester of B.B.A. I have to apply for admission in MBA course now but i am confused what specialisation should i choose. I like logistics and supply chain management but everyone i talked to, says there are very less job opportunities with it and engineering degree is...

RC200 lacks ABS :( Can you give some examples of ktm parts that are ridiculously priced? Almost all honda parts are expensive, 1800 for front brake pad and 1200 for rear :mad: and they don't even last more than 8000km (my friend's experience) Servicing has to be done at ASC at proper schedule...

The only reason i am not test riding KTM 390 series is because i won't be able to resist myself from buying it. Power corrupts :D People say honda's service is terrible. And KTM's is a lot better. But Its the reliability i am concerned about. Not their quality of service. Visited dealership of...

I am aware of issues in early batches of CBR250R. One guy from fb cbr250r group (2011 purchase) had his engine gasket replaced 7 times in 9 months and cone set replaced twice. And CBR250R was the only bike that seized its engine during xbhp's grand indian roadtrip. Duke 200 survived that trip...

KTMs have 140 or 150 days service interval. That i can manage. Do you mean service centre visits due to issues like oil/coolant leak, fork leaks, heating issues etc.? Is there any chance of these issues getting rectified on new batches by oct-nov? Only thing that got me worried about honda is...

I am using a 3.5 years old FZ16 and clocked 14,000KM til date. Its excellent for daily use in city traffic but on open roads, or when overtaking another vehicle, it feels severly underpowered I am 5 ft 10 with around 90KG +/-5KG weight. I haven't ridden any other motorcycle except my current...

Thanks a lot guys :D i'll go for SBI acc.

I already have a Bank of baroda savings bank account which i use for bill payment, e-commerce sites etc. I want to open a new Savings account which will be used only to save money. I talked to Bank of baroda people at local branch and they said opening another account in the same bank isn't...

its highly unlikely that there are too many evdo users in my area. even people at bsnl head office told me that only 2 evdo connection were sold in last 3 years. will changing data card help getting stable speeds?

hi guys, i have a strange problem with my evdo, everytime my speed goes down [~15-40KBps], i have to move my data card around my pc and try to find a spot and position where i get maximum speed [110-180KBps]. And fix it in that position using plastic clips. After a few hrs [or days] when it...
