Davide Brivio: Jorge Lorenzo is more ‘dangerous’ than Dani Pedrosa

TVS Flame: Oh no, what happened?
2008-06-06 04:36:50
Finally, I got to ride the TVS Flame, and I must say, that it is as much a 'triumph' of marketing as it is a blip on the otherwise unblemished radar of TVS R&D. Everytime I look at the bike, I find that the looks are the best part of the bike. Which, as you can imagine, is a dangerous place for a new product in a highly competitive market to be in. Handling is good and all that, but that engin

Well, no, actually, I'd love to listen, but I cannot handle the utterly banal chatter that the RJs seem to specialise in. Add the inane callers and the amout of time they take away from music (not to mention the Bollywood-jhankar beat fixation) and radio, basicall

Ducati comes to India
2008-06-06 04:35:01
Ducati has landed in India . So should we, really, be celebrating?This is a question I've faced in the recent days from a number of people. And why not. A product range, spanning the stratospheric Rs 15-50 lakh price range, is nothing to be scoffed at. Even as a motorcycle enthusiast, you have to wonder if you should be investing Rs 50 lakh in a depreciating, if gorgeous asset or in property/stocks

They are one of the very few companies left that still make motorcycles for the love of it. (Well, that's what we like to think anyway...)The latest in the line

Maybe you're a traditionalist. When you look at a motorcycle, you want to see lines that evoke memories of past classics. You love the feel and cadence and sound of an air-cooled V-twin. Of course you demand shaft drive and... Oh, sorry. Did you think I was talking about Harley-Davidson?
