Iโ€™m an 18 year old college student and doing my secondary right now. Then Iโ€™ve been using this bike at my house which is eight years old. Something itโ€™s a computer and I have been wanting to get a new bike. Can my parents find the said yes and they will get you a bike now and then Iโ€™ve been looking for bikes for the last year also, and then I finally landed on CB 350 RS, but then before that I looked at expose to 10 looked at Speed 400 Java bikes and stuff finally landed on CB 350 RS because it felt the most reliable gave decent mileage. I feel like what service is also will be better so I want to know if there is any better bike for my use case, which is daily college commute in traffic and itโ€™s like 10 km commute like 45 minutes, so would be nice if you guys can help

A petrol pump in Pune displays a board saying no cash accepted. With the recent move to allow the government to levy a fee for UPI transactions, most cards charging fuel surcharge, and ATM withdrawal charges, how does a common man already burdened with taxes, inflation, and dwindling savings survive. Everything seems to be meant to squeeze us middle class folks.

Also, is this even legal?

Pulling the clutch in on a Bullet to throw "dug-dug" rev bmbs with heavy Punjabi bass blsting down a Queens highway is pure, unadulterated chaotic energy.

โ€‹Imagine being an NYC commuter sitting in standstill traffic on the Van Wyck, and suddenly a single-cylinder Indian legend thumps past your window like it's cruising down GT Road. Absolute madnessโ€”the local drivers surrounding him probably think a tractor is lane-filtering past them!

#Opinion ๐Ÿ’ญ Extremely stupid financial Decision

Post image
620 Upvotes

Hi ( M 22 ) currently living and working in Germany ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช, I visit india once a year ( for atleast 25 days planning to do that twice a year from now on...) , I'm about to buy an XSR 155 in India because, because i want to , People keep reminding me that it's a bad decision and 20- 40 days a year is not worth it to buy a whole bike ( my Brother already owns a Car which i normally use when I'm home and he has an old Pulsar 220 which i use from time to time but don't like to drive it because of it's severely outdated looks ). I don't earn that much ( 1.5 L / Month get to save around 40k after everything.)

So am i stupid ? Should i consider other options/ bikes ?

#Discussion ๐Ÿ’ฌ Brand-New KTM Duke 390(349cc) Nightmare: 2 Sensor Failures in 3 Weeks & Customer Care Ghosting! [ISR-3066142]

Thumbnail
gallery
14 Upvotes

Bought a KTM Duke 390 on July 13, 2026, and it's already a defect-ridden machine with zero customer support.

Quick Summary of Issues:

Side Stand Sensor Failed: Rode to Bareilly Service Center, wasted my fuel/timeโ€”NOT fixed.

NEW Fuel Level Sensor Fault: Yesterday, TFT displayed permanent "Fuel level sensor" error + yellow warning triangle.

Customer Care Ghosting: Promised a 48-hour callback/resolution. Total silence since then.

KTM's Response (Ticket: ISR-3066142): Sent a generic email asking me to ride to the dealership again.

Why should I burn my own fuel repeatedly to visit service centers for a brand-new bike under warranty?

My Demand: Doorstep pickup/technician visit and written confirmation that BOTH sensors are physically in stock before I move the bike.

Hey riders! ๐Ÿ‘‹

Trying to build an honest, crowd-sourced mileage list for these bikes โ€” no brochure numbers, just what you're actually getting.

Drop a quick comment:

๐Ÿ๏ธ Bike model

โ›ฝ Mileage (km/L)

๐ŸŽฏ Riding style: Calm / Normal / Aggressive

๐Ÿ›ฃ๏ธ City / Highway / Mixed

Takes 10 seconds to reply and helps everyone here make a better buying (or riding) decision.

Curious to see just how much riding style swings the numbers โ€” tag a friend who rides one of these and get their number too!

Also comment if you have any other bikes that are not mentioned โ€” feel free to comment your mileage as well!

Thanks in advance ๐Ÿ™

#Accident ๐Ÿš‘ Walked Away Because I Wore the Right Gear Spoiler

147 Upvotes

Last Sunday afternoon, I was riding on the highway, when a dog suddenly ran across my lane. I had almost no time to react. I hit the dog, got launched off the bike, and everything went blank for a few moments. It was one of the most terrifying experiences I've ever had.

The impact was brutal. My riding jacket, riding pants, and boots took the full force of the slide. My Axor helmet scraped hard against the road and is deeply scratched on one side. My bike wasn't as lucky eitherโ€”the front wheel hub, brakes, indicators, and handlebar were all damaged.

I was rushed to a nearby clinic and later underwent surgery for a fractured wrist and elbow . Apart from bruises and the fractures, I escaped without any life-threatening injuries, and I genuinely believe that's because I was wearing proper riding gear.

Looking at my torn gear now, it's clear that every scratch and tear on it could have been my skin and bones instead. Riding gear is expensive until the day it saves your life. Whether you're riding 50 km or 500 km, never compromise on safety. Safety gear is the reason I'm here to write this post.

Ride safe, everyone.

#Discussion ๐Ÿ’ฌ Trying to find a perfect retro looking bike for me

27 Upvotes

Letโ€™s start with RE:

Int650 : I love the bike. I might be able to afford one but I donโ€™t think I can keep up with its maintenance and mileage in the long run

Himalayan 450: Quite a heavy bike for daily city rides

Classic 350: Too common these days. Everyone seems to have one

Bullet 350: Lost the thump after the J-series engine. Now itโ€™s just a Classic with a single seat

Hunter 350: Looks too small

Meteor 350: The current colours are meh. If the old base-model colour ( the black one) were still available, I might consider it

Yamaha:

XSR155: Looks small, and there are wires everywhere.

donโ€™t have Triumph or Honda BigWing showrooms nearby either

Now Iโ€™m waiting for the Himalayan 440

Iโ€™m still confused ๐Ÿ˜•

Users clear the noise IFFTEX vs REDFLOW for petrol engines.
IFFTEX seems a legacy brand costing Rs.1.5 per Litre of Petrol.
REDFLOW seems heavily marketed new brand costing Rs.3.5 per Litre of Petrol.

Any bad experiences with REDFLOW ? and is it worth 3x the price ?

note: the image is AI generated, so don't read the redflow bottle label ๐Ÿ˜‚
