When you are out on a long ride, you go through a lot of emotions - it starts with cheerfulness, and after a long day in the saddle, it can easily turn into gloomy. Here's a cranky me, judging everything that I encountered on the road en route Manali on my Delhi-Ladakh road trip with my friends.
I will be doing multiple videos on this trip, and in a sequence. Here's the video before this one for context: • How To Pack For 12-Day...
You can follow the full playlist here: • Delhi-Ladakh Ride 2021
If you want faster updates on this trip or want to see my work on my motorcycles and my 4x4, you can check out my Instagram here: / abhinavbhatt19
Thank you so much for giving me your time. I hope you have a great day.
Cheers

@SanjitNagi 3 года назад

I can see that Yudhvir is dragging the rear brake when in traffic, he stays so stable at low speeds with both his feet on the bike. I'm not sure but in the same scene, I think Tushar wasn't dragging the rear brake, he had to constantly put his feet down. This is a great technique, I use it often, dragging rear brake settles the bike and makes everything much more stable, doing low speed maneuvers become a breeze. It was cool to see that. Great video as always, eagerly waiting for upcoming parts.

@abhinavbhatt 3 года назад

He never even lets go of the throttle. He brakes with the revs high, is always on the gas. Never uses the clutch to upshift or downshift. His riding style is very different from most others.

@SanjitNagi 3 года назад

@@abhinavbhatt yes I've heard, clutch less downshifting, that's something I have seen no one do on the street, atleast when I ride. Please, if you could ask him if it takes him time to adjust his technique while clutchless downshifting on different bikes and how much, does he do it everytime and everywhere or not? Thanks

@abhinavbhatt 3 года назад

He does it all the time. He doesn't take time to adjust much because he only rides his own bikes.

That's the same thought i have,they could have given xsr155 to Indian market rather than giving something like fzx.Yeah it may make sense to the companies sales but not to the customers who have waited around a year for the xsr155 since its launch in thailand.This is actually with all japanese bike manufacturers in India except kawasaki and to an extent Suzuki too. Honda only introduces activas to our country they aren't even planning to bring 500cc lineup to the Indian market and same case with the yamaha.Yamaha should have brought the tenere700 to Indian market .Suzuki should have brought the SV650 to our market.But they don't do that.What a shame! 🥴

Hi Abhinav, am 52 years old, during my college days, 1988 - 1992 - Rx100 ruled the roost in terms of performance in the 100cc category. Performance was associated with Yamaha. But with the PUC norms, shift from 2 stroke to 4 stroke, Yamaha lost out in the game. They are yet to give us consumers a firecracker 4 stroker like the Rx. I had a lot of hope in them, but am really disappointed how mediocre they have become

Why did you sell the KTM? I had an RC390, and the bike just felt crude for the lack of a better word. No refinement. I'm a little confused between the Himalayan and new classic 350. Not into offloading per say. Just mainly city and mountain touring.

@abhinavbhatt 3 года назад

I wanted to do a little bit of hard enduro. KTM is not the bike for it. My XPulse build suits that kind of riding better. I think the Classic may be a smart choice for you, but test ride both and decide.

@aniljayakar 3 года назад

Really love the facts you stated about the FZX a disgrace of a bike they launched in India, funny how they started a redesign campaign on their social media and most of submitted designs have structural changes which lean more towards a XSR 155 look which is what they should've launched in the first place. Shitty decision makers I guess. Loving the Ladakh ride series! No BS quality content as always! Happy Riding!

@hariharanc3306 2 года назад

go see the bike in a showroom and get a test drive. get your mind blown. these idiots out there are comparing a 1.2 Lakh bike(FZX) to an almost 4.5 Lakhs bike (XSR) lol. xsr is not worth for 4.5 lakhs trust me. any RE bikes beat XSR and its not worth 4.5 lakhs.
