PW Members & Piaggio Owners Invited to RAVI Piaggio Factory In Lahore

[vickytulla]

I am really into the Mud Bike (trail) I dont see it in market though!

I cannot Vouch for the performance of this bike but with the experiance I have had on other mud bikes and keeping in view the repo of QINGQI in our market I can risk to say it shall be an experiance one has not had in Pakistan for a long time now.

I have to say that masha ALLAH he is one of the true riders... had his headlight on in the daytime.... now thats a tough thing to do coz everybody keeps telling you that ur headlight is on...... anyways...

We were warmly received by Mr. Umer Khayyam who heads the Quality and Mr. Nauman who is the manager of production and assembly. We were taken to the training room that had a tiny door to it. There were three Piaggios and a Moped parked there along with a couple of 70cc Ravi bikes. The Vespa Moped was a 125cc and looked very nice. It was an automatic stylish looking scooter with a digital watch in the speedometer.

Bro, you are very true! I usually keep the Headlight of my Motorcycle (mine is GS150) ON in daytime too, but people pointing with their hands and flashing fingers, become so irritating. As if I am a fool and have forgotten to turn it Off. lolz..

Infact, not many people know here that motorcycle headlight MUST be kept ON in all traffic literate countries.

I always turn on headlight in day time on long tours but people always waving hands and giving indications "OO Bhai Light JAL Raha Hay" "Yaar Tumhara Bati JAL Raha hay" thats all they can do. They aren't aware of Traffic Rules and Regulations!

Two major scientific research studies into the causes of motorcycle accidents have been conducted in North America and Europe: the Hurt Report and the MAIDS report.

Hurt Report (Extract)
The failure of motorists to detect and recognize motorcycles in traffic is the predominating cause of motorcycle accidents... Conspicuty of the motorcycle is a critical factor in the multiple vehicle accidents, and accident involvement is significantly reduced by the use of motorcycle headlamps-on In daylight."

A New Zealand study supported the Hurt Report's call for increased rider conspicuity, daytime headlights may reduce motorcycle injuries and death. The study found that riding with headlights on reduced the risk of a crash injury by 27%.

On most new motorcycles in USA, the headlights turn on as soon as the bike is started as a legal requirement.

Increase your chances of being seen on roads and at intersections, Ride with your headlight on !

The best way to help others see your motorcycle is to always keep the headlight on.
Studies show that during the day, a motorcycle with its light on is twice as likely to be noticed.
Using your beam during the day increases the chances that oncoming drivers will see you.
When it is foggy, use the low beam.

RIDE SAFE to Stay ALIVE !
