                  Buying in the Harley Davidson
                  Buying in the Harley Davidson Sportster S was one of those life - checklist moments. The showroom experience was premium - smooth paperwork, helpful staff and they make you fell like your joining a legacy. The moment I saw the bike in person matte finish, fat tires and that signature LED headlamp - it felt like a modern day muscle cruiser straight out of a comic book. Performance wise, the Revolutionary Max 1250 T is a monster. It doesnā€™t feel like a traditional Harley - itā€™s faster, sportier and more aggressive. Twist the throttle and it takes off like a sports bike. In Bengaluruā€™s NICE road, itā€™s an absolute blast! In a city traffic the engine heat is noticeable. Overall the Sportster S isnā€™t just a bike. Itā€™s a statement. No regrets - just miles of smiles.

                  Bike has good appearance and dynamic road presentation but you will face heating issue while riding the bike around your feet. Mileage is good according to the engine power and this bike is a gem a perfect combination of power, looks, style and a complete package of performance electronics, engine, suspension and design wise.

                  The BMW F 900 XR
                  The BMW F 900 XR is an impressive sports-touring motorcycle that offers a compelling blend of performance, practicality, and value. The 895cc parallel-twin engine delivers smooth, linear power with excellent tractability across the rev range. It's flexible enough for easy city riding, yet has enough punch for spirited highway cruising. The engine's efficiency is also noteworthy, returning up to 28 km/l on the highway.

                  Forks are unadjustable, while the rear shock has rebound and remote preload. Itā€™s not glitzy kit, but the shortage of adjusters and gold bits doesnā€™t mean ā€˜budgetā€™ ā€“ action is good, and the mix of control and comfort is almost cock-on. Chassis balance is a highlight: the F900XR can be flicked about easily regardless of speed or surface, yet always with total composure and confidence-boosting manners. ESA is optional (rear shock only), but while it allows a sportier set-up the XR feels nicest on the regular settings. Thereā€™s no shortage of real-road braking power and feel from the four-pot Brembos.
