Title: Need to buy a good dirt bike after I get my licence. Please help.
Post by: Malolan Venkataraghavan on April 07, 2016, 09:20:15 PM
I need your help to buy a off road bike of 125cc or above. Please help me choose the right one. My budget is a maximum of 2 lakh.

you want to do motocross ?

although not a dirt bike - have you looked at the Royal Enfield Himalayan ?

Go for an imported used Yamaha YZ125/250cc. You better search for one at pune.

Thanks but I don't want a used one. And as for RE Himalayan, I don't wan't that kind. I want a dirt bike like KTM MX series ( which is not available in India).

Perhaps your question will be better answered on a forum geared towards Motorcross.

 I'm not the OP :P BTW most RC enthusiasts like cars/bikes. So both of these hobbies have a big overlap. I see no harm in posting about cars/bikes. I will not hijack the thread any more..
Cheers

If the company is still in production this your best bet!

[Admin Note] OP banned temporarily for a week for starting duplicate threads on the same topic. Duplicate topic removed.

The topic was OT for this forum, but the thought was that it would be of general interest. This has gone too far.

I am sorry anwar. I thought I had put the topic in the wrong section. That's why I made a new topic in the wanted section.

@malolan sir,
Hope you have realised the REAL issue.
Not a ques of which board you post on. Are you an aeromodeller or a biker?
Most welcome if you are an aeromodeller.
If not, please do not get around a one week ban by starting a new ID.
There must be other forums meeting your dirt bike needs.
Regards.

I would suggest to search on team-bhp.....one of the largest automobiles forum in India....


RESPECT THE FORUM RULES...

Post by: Malolan on April 13, 2016, 10:34:48 PM
Mr. K.K. Iyer, I am sorry. But I love RC too.

@malolan sir,
In that case
Welcome to RCI.
Once you are known as an aeromodeller/rc enthusiast on the forum, posts about unrelated subjects would be acceptable in say 'ChatterZone'
For example, of my 2000+ posts, i doubt if more than 10 have mentioned things like my 1955 fiat restoration, 1956 Royal Enfield Ensign, etc.

So please do not start with dirt bikes etc, that are normally outside the scope of this forum.
Start with your rc/aeromodelling experiences.
Members would then be happy to hear of your activities in other fields.

Did you see my spoof on your posts?
Hope you didn't mind too much ;)

Looking forward to your next post in 'What r/c activity did you do last weekend'
Regards

Mr. K.K. Iyer, I'm sorry to tell that I won't be able to do much of interesting RC stuff for a few months because I am entering college this year. I would be getting my licence this year and hence wanted to buy a dirt bike. I did try posting in two bike forums but they rejected my posts.

Anyways, I am planning to make a model rocket in mid or end of may. I hope I am able to do the project. I will definitely post a video of the rocket, if I really do it.

Post by: Cycloned on April 14, 2016, 11:52:23 PM
Wait did you make a new account because your original one got banned? Is this allowed?
