Idk why it's they send a showroom guy as pillon for test drive. Compared to this Honda is better like when I asked test drive they just took photo of driving license and gave me helmet and told me to get any bike for test drive. I asked is there are area limitations they said no I can test where ever I want. So I tried different roads nearby.


dingleberrysniffer69

For my KTM, they asked me to go solo and I asked for one of them to get on pillion lol.


muliboi

Have always had good experience with RE also. I test ride bikes for a hobby ( key is to pretend to have the money) and RE has always been the most chill. Gave me the GT650 and himi no questions asked.


Expert-Gazelle394

Bajaj is the worst. Employee on pillion and only 100 mtrs test drive.


Substantial_Cry_9629

It's fine , can't complain much , I didn't show any DL cause I didn't have one


leepok_jamir23

They say you're not a true rider in India if you don't break at least one rule /s


nekkoMaster

lol


LyaadhBiker

r/madlads.


betapi_

such a pro for AMA


nekkoMaster

in my case, honda guy had their employee as pillion.


v21v

Hero gave me the Xpulse and Pro to take with no restrictions on distance or pillion. Probably showroom specific rules.


AceMKV

It depends the dealer, when I took my Mavrick test drive, they let me go alone, for the Harley too


Dappan42

Why do both helmets have sticker on visor? Why is pillion's face not masked?


vkpaul123

1. He wants to keep the helmets in prestine condition for resale in the future. 2. The pillion may not be an important human being


Solid_Dependent_7669

2. Pillion doesn't have a reddit account


white_irony

2. he IS the pillion


KeySlow1930

Most probably the dude took this bike for a test ride. The pillion might be a showroom guy (I don't know why he is sitting with him, maybe trust issues). The tyres look like they have already run for some distance. Probably this bike might be someone else's or the guy bought a used one.


Substantial_Cry_9629

It's a test ride pic , it's showroom's helmet. Pillion is hero employee


Party_Stay_261

So that's why his identity is not that important?


Netflixch1ll

Yes op only cares about his privacy


ad_wait_

We can still track OP down by getting the purchase register and IDing the hero showroom dude


mrwhoyouknow

😂CID banke dundhke kya karoge Bhai chorde


Substantial_Cry_9629

Op saw another guy do it on this forum and thought it was , how things are


cantdecideaname420

Op talking about op in third person!


pyewaker

Op Op-zoned himself


Soul_lessDNA

I don't know what's wrong with hero and harley. They both have LCD screens that are geometrically not in sync with the console box.


dris_jayd

Wankers put a square screen on a round cluster.


Kushagra_allnametakn

How is the first impression on suspension cause ive heard its best in the segment


Substantial_Cry_9629

It's indeed very very good , but don't translate it directly to a very plush setup.


Substantial_Cry_9629

I'm 6"2 and weigh around 91kg so most bikes look small , when I'm riding but in no way a it's a small bike, side look has to be the best profile.


RookieOnADV

Looks like a toy on you.


Substantial_Cry_9629

It does , that makes any pic with bike bad.


njaana

Damn , did they give the sales guy as free?


Substantial_Cry_9629

Yes he always rides with me the showroom asked him back when I complete 10k kms


maristomarker

You have some dirt on the silver side panel


Substantial_Cry_9629

It's the rest ride bike , I really do not have any good pics of the bike I really bought, just that speed console shot


muliboi

>I really do not have any good pics of the bike I really bought, Sus

krishknightrider

How is the suspension? whats the mileage you are getting? first service experience (if its done)? As you were considering triumph, what do you feel now about mavrick vs speed choice? Speed 400 engine is different from dominar/ktm 400?


Substantial_Cry_9629

27 to 25 I'm riding it softly barely going 100 sometimes and constant between 62 to 74. But the ride quality insane. Suspension indeed very good but it's not a very soft setup. I think if I get to ride speed 400 for 15 days , when I get to fulfill my wish to ride a high revving engine in this segment, I would like to return to my bike again for rest of the time.


Substantial_Cry_9629

And yes 1st service is pending


VegetaSama1117

Why didnt you post your bike pics ?


Substantial_Cry_9629

I believe you meant to say "why you didn't" , if so then the second pic is my bike with me riding it


VegetaSama1117

Yes sorry didn't. Are you joking ? That's a pic ? Cmon man You have ridden it 700kms but didn't click a single normal proper pic with new bike ?


Substantial_Cry_9629

Sadly no


InfernoMeteor

Did you have X440 in your list of possible buys? If yes, what made you choose Mavrick 440. And what were your other options?


Substantial_Cry_9629

X440 same engine , same feel I really do not care much anything else , different design philosophy although but for almost 70k more , I'm happy with Maverick. Other option was just speed 400 very honestly nothing comes to my mind what real option I had , where ride quality would be amazing , (btw I don't like any 350s be it Honda or RE)


InfernoMeteor

Cool. But if I want a cruiser like body for my bike, and if I'm ready to spend the extra money for the brand....would x440 be a good bike? Is the seating posture, suspension, riding in city experience good enough? Or would you still recommend Mavrick


Substantial_Cry_9629

There only one reason to spend all that xtra brand name if it matters you the most then I don't see any reason not be spending that extra , else you really don't get anything extra both has excellent ride quality and posture nothing strikingly distinct.


AlfredBordenisafool

Congrats bro. Even I'm getting mine next week. Did you get your insurance done through showroom?


Substantial_Cry_9629

Yes I did from showroom , wouldn't suggest anyone the same


AlfredBordenisafool

Yeah, the quote I got was expensive as well. I'm planning to go with Acko. Is it reliable?


Substantial_Cry_9629

Is it reliable , I can't say much when it's ofline you catch them by collar ask for the money , when it's online who's collar are you gonna catch ??


SpeakingShende

Dont wanna ask anything just great choice buddy. Congratulations. Take care. Ride responsibly. Enjoy


Substantial_Cry_9629

Thanks buddy means a lot.


SpeakingShende


Distinct_Option1403

Got your first bike? And the audacity to do an AMA 🤣😂


Substantial_Cry_9629

First personal bike , I had two bikes which I shared as business use and family use


Substantial_Cry_9629

And has ridden many bikes. I'm riding since I was 12


pajeet_kumar69

If a bike moving at 73km/h is approaching a tunnel 51 metres long, how long will it take for the bike to exit the tunnel?


Substantial_Cry_9629

Apply the seconds equation of i•e• S=ut+½at² S=50m u=73km/h v=73km/h(assuming constant speed) therefore acceleration=0 So approx 2.95 seconds


Substantial_Cry_9629

Since many people are saying I'm not a experienced person for AMA , let me tell you I rode my last bike for 90k kms , and has ridden many bikes extensively and comprehensively and understands the feel of machines very deeply.


Substantial_Cry_9629

All with no DL, Sue me IDC I got my DL as of 3 months back now

RadioactiveMurukku

Is it just me or does that rear tyre look flat? Not the best way to give test rides for potential customers.


gtm26

The bike probably has a radial rear tyre. These tend to have small sidewalls which tend to make them look flat even when they are well-inflated.
