BAJAJ BOXER " A GOOD MILEAGE BIKE ".

Bajaj Boxer CT(India): I got this bike 6 years ago when i was in 11th std.Till date it hasn’t encountered any serious engine problem.I’m getting a mileage of around 65 kms/litre.As petrol is very costly in India Boxer CT proves to be very fuel efficient bike.At the time of purchase my father was insisting for Hero Honda CD100 but i found Boxer CT as more attractive and cheaper as compared to CD 100.In India Hero Honda brand in motorcycle segment is like Nokia in mobile phone.I don’t understand why people blindly rush for Hero Honda bikes when cheaper ones with excellent performance and good looks,like Boxer CT are available in market.I’m not saying that it is a perfect bike,but i believe that it is a value for money bike.It is a very good option for middle class families who are interested in low initial cost as well as low operating cost.Boxer CT has a good pickup and gives the biker a pleasurable experience. I would like to mention some of the problems that i faced in this long run of 6 years.The maintenance of this very less but the kick gets detached after every few months usage.

Heck, there i was lambasting kinetice for their combative naming strategy but what about bajaj auto with it boxer moniker ? boggles the mind but i have no time for it because there comes an undercut which aim is at the biker opposition jaw in the formof the ct followed by another one aim at the solar plexus inthe form of the ct delux and yet another expexted in the form .......

TESTER NOTES :- BAJAJ BOXER

They say try ,try and keep trying till you succed. bajaj auto had to keep on this vein for a long time but since the last two or three year the boxer is the class act in the econo - clast minifield. a good reason for among the trio of bike here in this slug fest she is stylish and packaged well ,unlike the other where style takes aback seat or is non -existent.

THE YAMAHA LIBERO G5 .

The Yamaha Libero G5 is a 106 cc, single cylinder 4 stroke motorcycle from Yamaha Motors India. Its predecessor was known as just Yamaha Libero. Unlike Libero G5, Libero had round head lights, and taco meter but lacked fuel gauge. However, Libero G5 came with a sporty head light and fuel gauge, but lacked the tachometer (RPM Meter). A new set of air scoops with a honeycomb grille do dual duty; directing airflow over the engine block and also neatly covering the gap between the engine and the fuel tank.The Yamaha G5 is a revamped version . The G5 comes with a broad, V-shaped headlamp reflector encased in clear-lens glass and a cowl that imparts a more aerodynamic feel to the bike. The headlamp houses a 35W halogen bulb and the twin-pod instrument cluster includes a circular speedometer, the fuel gauge and warning lights.

The Yamaha G5 is powered by a single cylinder, four-stroke, two-valve, air-cooled 106cc engine develops a peak power of 7.6 PS at 7,500 rpm and generates a maximum torque of 7.85 Nm at 6,000 rpm. An improved air induction system ensures a better breathing engine that burns fuel fully and so boosts performance and simultaneously reduces exhaust emissions.

The G5's frame continues to be the tubular dual cradle type and it uses the tubular swing arm though other bikes in the 100 cc segment feature box section swing arms for improved stability. A longer wheelbase than the competitors gives the bike a slight edge in the handling and stability parameters.

YAMAHA CRUX " A STYLISH BIKE ".

Here comes the review of the classical 100c segment bike – The Yamaha Crux. To sum it up, I am extremely satisfied with this bike. I can boldly say that this is the best bike in this category. The price of Crux comes around Rs.30,000 on-road.

The bike has the biggest engine in its category compared to the engines of Hero Honda CD Dawn and Bajaj Platina. The bike is smooth even at high speeds, thanks to Yamaha’s engineers!
Users have reported that there had not been any starting problem with the engine so far even in cold conditions. Yamaha Crux bike gives a mileage of 65kmpl in cities and up to 75 – 80 kmpl in highway riding conditions.

The new Crux S will be available at a price of Rs 33,152 (ex-showroom Delhi , the company said in a release.

"Crux S will provide our patrons a dependable bike option that makes an excellent value for money propositions," said H Yanagi, CEO and managing director, Yamaha Motor India.

Equipped with a 106 cc engine, the company has claimed a mileage of 91 km per litre under standard test conditions.

The quality of the seats and other parts are excellent. This bike is not advertised enough and it has not been considered as a choice by many people. Given its low price, I agree that Yamaha cannot spend huge amounts advertising Crux, but you need to look at this gem and should be definitely in the choice list if you want a bike with low cost, good mileage and descent looks.

Honda CBF Stunner "A STYLISH BIKE ".

Oh, my GOD!”, these were the words that I screamed when I entered the Honda showroom today. Anyone would have done the same thing when they see more than 20 Honda CBF Stunner bikes packed into a small showroom. I thought that these guys were really confident in selling off these 125cc machines, that they bought out a bulk of it from the manufacturer. If there are already 20 bikes in the showroom, think of how much they have stacked up in the godown!.

Honda’s new motorcycle CBF Stunner is a mean little 11 bhp, 124 cc machine

The CBF Stunner is here. Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India has unveiled its new 125 cc sports bike, the CBF Stunner, for the Indian market.

CBF Stunner motorcycles will be available in three vresions – Self Disc Alloy (Price Rs 51,655), Self Drum Alloy (Price: Rs 49,820) and Kick Drum Alloy (Price: Rs 47,070). At this point, Honda will offer the Stunner CBF in red, black, metallic silver and yellow colours.

CBF Stunner’s Styling: Honda says that many people thought that it was a 180cc bike in the first look. And some thought it was a 250cc one. The bike is quite large for its engine size. The big flaring in front definitely adds a super cool status to the bike. Major part of the Stunner story is its looks.

CBF Stunner’s Performance: No one can tell that the CBF is the twin brother of Honda Shine, Unless they look into the specifications. I would say that the bike is better suited for city riding than highway cruising. With jump start pickups at lower speeds, the college guy will definitely look like a cool dude on this bike, compared to the guy who drives a Passion Plus, struggling to catch up with Stunner.

TVS Star Sport 100cc Bike .

TVS brand has become quite popular during the last couple of years and obviously the company wanted to leverage on the popularity ride. Almost 75% of the company’s bike sales come from the star brand. Yet another star that’s born recently is the TVS Star Sports that comes in 2 versions. The base version Sport comes in two colors; Carbon black and jet red, and alloy wheels. The deluxe version comes with fuel gauge and double-toned sporty chrome graphics in about 3 colors; black, blue and silver.If you want me to review the performance of TVS Star, let me tell you that the Sport bike comes with 99.7cc engine and it gives a peak power of 7.5bhp. Similar to its older brother Star City the Sport comes with one down-tubed chassis and a four-speed gearbox. The suspension has the same looks as that of the Star City, but the rear one comes with 5 steps adjustable stroke that is just a little longer than the Start City. Sport comes with alloy wheels and what makes it different from City is that a new face-lifted silencer (a matte silencer and a chrome heat shield with dual pod cluster).

This new technology would offer better performance, excellent pickups and the same high mileage. The pricing is very low for this new bike based on other competitor bikes which is around 32000[ex-showroom price] and comes with a five-year warranty.

Star sport comes with a dual tone alloy graphics, alloy wheels and excellent speedometer design. The Star Sport is a 100cc bike good for average users who are looking for a bike which offers good features at a better mileage and not for real sport bikers. Comes with different colours and contemporary design with a sporty look and currently available in three colours – Silver, Red and Black with 2 variations in models.

Star Sport basically is an economy bike targeted at the middle class masses. The price for either of the versions fall below the 40k mark. Additionally, TVS is offering a 5-year warranty on some parts of the bike. If you ask me a two-word verdict on my review, I would say that the TVS Star Sport is a style and sensible bike worth all money for the first-time bike buyers.

HONDA SHINE 125 CC.

Equipped with a host of advanced technologies, Honda Shine offers impressive performance. Having some really phenomenal features, Shine is a value for money. State-of-the-art technological inputs make it a dream machine. With neat looks and switches, the bike works well for its owners.

I am really in love with Honda’s cute starter segment bike, the Honda Shine. With 125cc engine, I feel that this bike does a very good job in giving you comfort, mileage and descent looks. Here’s a review of the various aspects of Honda Shine.

Styling: The looks of the bike is not sporty like the Glamour, the competitor from Hero Honda. But I feel that the bike has a different focus than the latter. The bike has been designed for the ‘office commuter’ in mind who needs plain and neat looks. If you are a college student, choose to buy the Honda CBF Stunner which has the same 125cc engine but a sporty and trendy outfit.

A cleverly chiselled fuel tank comes with well-designed knee recesses and a chrome filler-cap. The bike is available in the color variants of Black, Geny grey metallic, Alpha red metallic, Champion blue metallic, and Wild purple metallic.

Control and Comfort
Double suspension system ensures superior absorption of shocks and vibrations, and, at the same time, provides excellent ride comfort and stability. The bike carries the features such as multi mapping CDI, tumble flow combustion chamber, long intake pipe and connecting tube, CV carburettor, two-way Air Jacket and pulse exhaust system.

Performance: Many users have told me that the bike vibrates when it is taken above 60 km/hr. But one has to remember that this is a 125cc bike and not a 150cc one. But at low speeds, the acceleration is fantastic. The bike gives a mileage of more than 50kmpl for sure but it can give higher number if you maintain the right air pressure in the tires and get your bike serviced regularly.

Honda Unicorn 150cc Review

Honda set foot on the Indian bike market with the legendary Honda Unicorn. With 150cc engine and mono-suspension, it was the first of its kind in India. In one word, it can be summed up as ‘The Smart 150cc Bike.

I went to the Honda showroom to test drive the Unicorn, but I was disappointed as they told me that there are no bikes for test drive and if booked, it will take another 6 months to arrive! Wow! This is a great pointer to the fact that the bike is selling like crazy in India.

I called up one of my friend who I remembered to have owned a Unicorn and asked him whether he still uses it and if possible come to my place so that I can take some pictures and test the bike for a review on Bike Advice. He gladly accepted and the bike arrived around 5 in the evening.The bike is fantastic both in performance as well as aesthetic value. It is a perfect fusion of sporty and macho design. With features like swift acceleration, superior mileage, international styling, riding comfort and convenience, the bike has made some benchmarks in Indian automotive industry. Ex-showroom price of bike in Delhi is approximate Rs 51000.

Looks and Styling
Its aerodynamic body lining, sleek design, appealing tail lamp and excellent body graphics add style statement to it. It has macho design blended with style.
Control and Comfort
The bike has telescopic front suspension while the rear part is equipped with advanced technology mono suspension. As for the brakes, it has disc brakes on the front and drum brakes on the rear. Mono suspension system prevents discomfort while driving on unhelpful roads.

TVS APACHE RTR 160 .

TVS has seriously re-branded itself with the latest racing bike, the Apache RTR Fi 160 cc. This bike is the flagship model of TVS. I am basically not a fan of TVS, but this bike has definitely got my attention.TVS Apache is an exciting offer from TVS. A powerful blend of contemporary design and engineering, TVS Apache is superbly styled with fantastic finish. The mighty machine has sleek finish with lines that flow smoothly and seamlessly. Having a muscular design theme, TVS Apache has arrow shaped headlamp and fairing combo. OverDrive, BS Motoring and Autocar named it Bike of the Year 2006.

How does it look?

TVS Engineers have worked hard in designing the Apache RTR to make sure that it can compete with Pulsar and CBZ. But however the design is ‘good’ but not head turning in my opinion. The lines along the length of the bike is good and the tank is sculpted well to accomodate the knees.

Looks and Styling
The specially designed headlamp along with triangular front mudguard impart it an aerodynamic look. The large 16-litre fuel tank imparts TVS Apache's front a heavy look. Due to the elongated tank design and the lower height, the centre of gravity is closer to the ground.

The tail lights are not as good as in other bikes of the same category. The grip bars for the pillion rider is adopted from CBZ. But however Apache beats its competitors in the design of the handle bar.

The most impressive part of the bike is its handling. The bike feels heavy enough and you feel really confident when you drive it. The brakes are excellent! It comes with a 270 mm front disc break and an optional rear disc break.

How does it stand out?

Personally, I wouldn’t want to buy TVS Apache just because I am not a great fan of TVS. But this bike makes a good choice for people who are bored with CBZs and Pulsars. Apache comes in 3 models…

Control and Comfort
Salient features regarding control and comfort in the bike are Light weighted and sporty rearset foot pegs, Racing GT stripe which epitomizes the RTR FI 160 racing pedigree, Forged brake lever which is lighter in construction and having great looks, Split grab rails that ensures optimum mix of design and functionality, Silencer designed with details and sound engineering, Engine fairing that saves the RTR engine from elements and harsh riding conditions, Black alloys which are Light weight and can cope up with the tough surfaces, and Aerodynamic air scoops directs air towards the engine unit to help better cooling efficiency.
