What is the best exhaust upgrade for the FZ1 Fazer?
10 January 2025 07:47
Whatever you get, don’t forget to get a Power Commander or something similar to control your fuel. Almost all aftermarket exhausts need a remap to run properly.
How does the FZ1 Fazer stack up against modern naked Bikes such as the MT-10?
10 January 2025 07:47
The power delivery of the MT-10’s crossplane engine is much more exciting, and it sounds way better, too. The FZ1 feels a little bland by comparison.
What would you like to see if KTM brought back the 690 Duke in 2026?
10 January 2025 07:45
I think it would be nice to see a bit of aero elements added, like small winglets. It will make it look more aggressive and modern and help high-speed stability.
What is the most ridiculous mod you have seen on a KTM Duke 690?
10 January 2025 07:45
I've seen a 690 converted to electric power, and that was the craziest mod I've seen. That thumper engine lost all the charm, but it was a cool engineering project.
Is the KTM Duke 690 a bike worth buying in 2025?
10 January 2025 07:45
That depends on what you need. As visceral a riding experience as you'll find, the 690 is still hard to beat if you're after something really raw. Also, they are a good value these days, used.
If Yamaha made a 300cc version of the BW's, what would you want to see?
10 January 2025 07:37
Let’s forget off road pretensions and make it a high performance urban scooter. Tune that 300cc engine for maximum smiles per gallon in the city, lower it, add sticky tires.
Which bike is better for Urban Adventures, the Yamaha BW’s 125 or the Honda ADV150?
10 January 2025 07:37
The BW's 125, I think, does a better job of capturing the urban adventure. The ADV150 feels like it’s trying too hard to be a ‘real’ adventure bike, while the ADV feels like a scrappy underdog punching above its own weight class.
What is the most ridiculous mod you've seen on a Yamaha BW's 125?
10 January 2025 07:37
I saw a BW's with a custom stretched frame, and that was the craziest mod I've seen. It looked more like a mini chopper scooter hybrid. Impractical as hell, but it’s definitely unique.
Is the Yamaha BW's 125 an 'adventure scooter' at all?
10 January 2025 07:37
I think it hits a good balance. The adventure styling isn’t just for show, but it’s not a hardcore off roader. Featuring a higher ground clearance and beefier suspension than your average scooter, it's better equipped for mixed terrain riding than most other electric scooters.
Why does BW have the 125's headlight design so funky?
10 January 2025 07:37
In fact, the dual headlight design is pretty functional. This helps you put more light on a wider spread so that you can spot obstacles at night or in low visibility conditions.
What is the XEV 9e Pack Three's "Three for Me" finance program compared to the traditional auto loans?
09 January 2025 11:16
For people that upgrade cars a lot, it is great. You can drive the car now and make the decision at a later date as to whether you want to keep it or trade it up.
Can the XEV 9e Pack Three's 175 kW DC fast charging make long road trips possible in India?
09 January 2025 11:16
Compare it to ICE cars. Yes, it’s slower to charge, but you’re still saving money and reducing emissions. Worth the extra time.
What does the XEV 9e Pack Three's rear-wheel drive setup do to change the driving dynamics from the norm of front-wheel drive EVs?
09 January 2025 11:16
It's also a concern for traction in the rain and snow. Most drivers in different conditions will find FWD more practical.
Is the XEV 9e Pack Three premium worth the premium over lower variants?
09 January 2025 11:16
It depends on your needs. If you’re a tech enthusiast who loves gadgets, Pack Three is a dream. The only problem is that for regular commuters, perhaps not.
Will the BE 6's 682 km range really hold up in real world conditions?
09 January 2025 11:10
Just remember that even if it doesn’t reach 682 km, the BE 6 still has fast charging. It’s not a deal breaker if you can charge quickly on long trips, and the real world range is just a little bit lower.
How does the BE 6’s ADAS stack up against systems in other established EV brands?
09 January 2025 11:10
It will have to be tested on Indian road conditions. This is a system tuned for our chaotic traffic and road markings (or lack thereof) and this could actually outperform the foreign systems here.
Can the BE 6’s Auto Park Assist feature actually be of use in Indian parking situations?
09 January 2025 11:10
The thing I worry about is people relying on it too much. What happens when it doesn’t detect a small obstacle such as a rock or a steep curb? In fact, it could actually create more problems than it solves.
Is the premium of the BE 6 Pack Three worth the cost over lower variants?
09 January 2025 11:10
The Pack Three is totally worth it if you can afford, disagree. The more impressive part is that 79 kWh battery, which completely eliminates range anxiety, and the premium features like ADAS and the panoramic sunroof really make the car feel like a premium product. You get what you pay for.
How does the BE 6’s in car camera feature stack up against Tesla’s cabin camera?
09 January 2025 11:10
What I’m more interested in is how this camera could develop in future updates. Could driver monitoring features be added later by Mahindra? It would make it more similar to Tesla’s implementation.
Will the Bobber 838 cut into sales of the 650 twins?
09 January 2025 11:03
In fact, it may increase 650 sales. When people see the price difference between the Bobber and the Interceptor, they will come for the Bobber and leave with an Interceptor.
