Ravi-Piaggio Storm-125 Euro II bike

[amjad635]

Bus Yaar why this Atlas Honda came into being :mad:
why don't Honda directly launch their bikes in pakistan :mad:
i mean why don't they take full control in their hands no pakistani :mad:

[vickytulla]

100% agreed!

I have no sympathy for Atlas Honda
But look how people treated the first time little bit big change from atlas honda
in form of deluxe and look the amount of criticism cg classic is facing for the first time
when atlas honda have introduced some changes to it.
i mean people here don't want to see anytype of change in their
years old motorcycles they want only sticker change
believe when i see and analyze peoples mindset nothing nothing gonna happen
nothing nothing gonna change we will pass away watching and riding these same years old motorcycles
and we can't expect miracles from company like atlas honda

Buddy atleast there are some among many who wants to change this trend. At the time when i was about to buy me bike, i have the option of CG125, But i never considered that. Because its like every 3rd person is having the Cg125. And people are so mentally retarded nowadays that while buying a bike the only keep in mind one thing "Market Resale" And "After Sales And Service" so HONDA has its circle to entertain and HONDA is only selling its bike because of its strong network, Nothing else.

hah ah h ahah

Even i give a damn about resale. But ravi must provide a strong network of after sales and service. Till today i never availed any of free services from ravi (company offered but i went to my mechanics)

you did the right thing i appreciate your decision
but now its the company ravi leaving you alone
and is not taking care of you so this is my point
what ever problem or hindrances ravi facing
they must improve their customer after sales service

and yes resale value even crore pati people look for resale
when comes to purchase and choose a bike
lets suppose if Atlas Honda introduces cbr125r
will it have resale???? ofcourse not so just because of that you don't purchase good bike

[wasif111]

i like new CG 125

[vickytulla]

Yes I will look at specs visit show room, and if it bangs my head I will be the customer, I am already planning to buy a Qinqi 150 Trail .... I am on the booking list for it ... but the dealer says company is not feeling comfortable with launch for God know I believe the same resale, spare parts reasons e.t.c...

wesay frankly resale sirf CD70 ki he sahi hoti hai wo bhi if you buy in used or kisi bike ko bhi lay lo it will go down insanely

Buddy.. why are u keeping ur hopes high to see miracles from the likes of the blood sucking monopolists in our country.. this will not change till we ourselves change our mindset... miracles dont just happen.. dude u gota make them happen... Iv kept a pretty decent number of motorbikes, n im proud of my decision to go for the RP Storm. at least for the price i paid, i got my hearts content... I feel cheeeky and proud whenever i stop at a signal or go to buy something, and people pull up to me and inquire asto what brand is this, and start taking alot of interest. I doubt that happens for any Honda/Suzuki owner... For me my friend.. thats all my money's worth right there.
As for resale.. dude my bike is around 15mths old.. n i just recently got an offer of 85k... now if this is not good resale.. then what is.. (but not many people including me look at the resale now.. ) as per the law of diminishing value of any item.. resale should just be = scrap value.. however, since wer still a technologically backward country, the TERM resale will haunt us for a few more decades

[amjad635]

the excatly what you are saying
exactly what i have said in my post
i am not expecting any miracles
but i don't see change looking at people mindset
people are still crazy about old 70cc & 125 model shapes

Hi everyone, thanks a lot Viper_995 for your lead. Just came back visiting the dealer from tariq Road.

After seeing my self now I can 100% agree with everyone in favor of Ravi Piaggio Storm 125. Seeing is believing, the quality is outstanding as compared to all branded bikes here (not chinese) and thay have completely rectified the Fuel Guage + Chain Cover problem.

One thing that do bother me is if I buy this which I am really looking forward too is maintanance coz without proper 2S dealers network here it will be very difficult if parts are not readily available here, I have to wait every time for parts to arrive from Lahore as told by the dealer.

The dealer assured me that because of fullfilling units requirment of forces parts will be available easily but there is a doubt.

[vickytulla]

aa... Freshy in lahore now the situation is some thing like, spare parts are available but the dealers are trying to loot every peenyy from you, I visited three dealer weeks back when I came to know that bike is back in market....

and guess what every spare part dealer had his own exagrated rate for the spare parts the see you and try to judge if you are rich or what and then give you the price and say "ap humaray apnay customer hain is liye sirf ap ky liye.."

I hope once the spare parts follow gets stream lined this hipe will end.. lets see and keep the fingers crossed!

Buddy.. now that youve seen the bike ur self.. use ur own decision making skills and decide for your self..
I sold my 2009 GS 150 (on which i had to put on aftermarket disc brakes, visor and mudflaps, not to mention a beefier tyre, on top of payin a price of 85k)/ But for the RP, i paid only 80k with all the goodies and the sexy body in the price,
I went bonkers over this baby.. so u can judge if it was worth the change..
U will have to take certain risks buddy, else if u r worried abt parts, then i suggest go for a CHONDA, as u wud get its parts even at a PANWALA.... cuz even Suzuki parts are DAMM expensive and not always readily available..although the suzuki is stil a better bike out of the two (current HONDA vs SUZUKI) IMO.

lolxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You are in wrong thread.. Kindly make your way to above mentioned thread

[Silver_Knife]

@ Viper.. Same is the case.. Whenever i go to karachi or any other place, even in Quetta. People start staring the bike like there's a girl in bikini on my bike. .. People inqure about the price, brand whenever i stop on signals etc. And that feeling is priceless. Hun HONDA aliyan nu is shey di ki khabar..

[N0m1]

Asslam Alikum @ All.
Its good to see Piaggio back in a lil action again.Hope for the best.
Personally,I wanna see this bike on roads with happy riders riding them but its not possible until company gives complete after sale services.
