R3DS!X
Whatever that means
So occasionally I go to different parts of the world in google maps and will look around at restaurants and parks and stuff and I got to thinking about my trip to Thailand and all the neat little bikes they had there and to make a short story long I started thinking about India's motorcycles that we don't get here and if there were any hidden gems.
So to set expectations, India's needs are for cheap transportation so expect small displacement and small price tags.
Here are 3 cool bikes we don't get in no particular order.
1. Hero xPulse 200
This widdle dual sport is fuel injected and pumps out 18 tiny widdle horses. Styling will make you look like you go on more adventures that you probably do but it has enough ground clearance to actually take you somewhere. weighing in at 340 with all the fluids this wont fool you into thinking its a dirt bike but it should be a competent adventure bike. Also it has smartphone integration for nav and calls and stuff. pretty cool OH AND IT'S $1500!!!!
2. Bajaj Dominare 400
At about 400 pounds it's a bit on the heavy side for 40hp but that is with all the fluids. This little sporty fighter reminds me a little of the z400 they got in European land. Maybe it's just the green. You get some USD forks compared to the Z and again bluetooth connectivity. Ya know what? It's all yours for the low low price of $2400. Hell i'll take two!
3. TVS Apache RR
Okay this thing is propper cool. If Ducati made this thing for this price (about $3000), yall would be losing your minds. This is so much cool wrapped into this bike. Throttle by wire, EFI, USD forks, KYB shock, Ram air, and a fucking slipper clutch!?!? This thing would be an awesome track machine/canyon carver!
Also in red, and with some heavy squinting it kinda looks a little like a Ducati.
I think you can get all three of these for the price of a new SV650
Oh and I would be shamed if I didn't add this cool commercial to this thread:
