Suggest all terain tyres for Versys 650Torque Block is pretty good. Fortunately, the place where I'm going for servicing (xTorque Bangalore) gave me their reference. Had a detailed discussion and based on my requirement of upcoming MA, he suggested me newly introduced Ceat Gripp RAD.
Costed 18k for pair including 14% GST (could have saved if there was an offline market, but anyways...)
Going to get it fitted tomorrow and will provide feedback after 500kms.

Where to get female Riding boots?@raaghave if something comes up, will let you know.

Where to get female Riding boots?I've been using Liberty warrior series - Jungle King Boots and Warrior Combat since past 4 years.
Jungle kings is a combo of canvas and solid toe and heel protection. Good for short rides as it does not have ankle protection.
Warrior combat is the one i wear for long rides. Never cracked, no wear, stiching intact as day 1.
Both are officially used by India army. Jungle king for training and Warrior for combat traning. so you can bet on the quality.
There is also a new warrior model called Platoon which has a side zipper. Its a bit softer that combat but i haven't seen it as its a new model.

New Himalayan 452 user experienceGot to know that few Himalayan had front chasis crack which which RE is trying to pass on the blame on aftermarket crash guards fitting. Rather than accepting their own quality they are trying to deviate somehow.

Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 - A New Urban ThrillRoyal Enfield has once again stirred up the motorcycle world with its latest offering, the Guerrilla 450. This new roadster is a bold departure from the classic Enfield image, aiming squarely at the urban rider seeking a blend of style, performance, and affordability.
Image credit - MotoplaneteA Fresh Platform
Built on the foundation of the acclaimed Himalayan 450, the Guerrilla 450 undergoes a significant transformation to fit the urban jungle. A reworked chassis lends it a more road-focused character, promising a nimble and agile ride. The weight reduction of 15kgs compared to its adventure sibling is a clear indication of Royal Enfield's intent to create a lighter, quicker motorcycle.
Key Specifications
- Price: Expect to shell out approximately ₹2.39 lakh in India for the base model. International pricing is set at £4,850 in the UK and €5,290 in Germany.
- Engine: The heart of the Guerrilla is the liquid-cooled Sherpa 450 engine, borrowed from the Himalayan. This unit, equipped with ride-by-wire throttle and double overhead camshafts, is expected to deliver a punchy performance.
- Weight and Dimensions: Tipping the scales at 185 kg, the Guerrilla 450 is notably lighter than its adventure sibling. A shorter wheelbase and lower seat height of 780 mm make it more accessible and maneuverable in city traffic.
Customization and Variants
Royal Enfield has a knack for offering plenty of options, and the Guerrilla 450 is no exception. A range of factory accessories, including sump guards, flyscreens, and different seat options, allows riders to personalize their bikes.
There are currently three variants available:
- Analogue: The base model comes with a semi-digital instrument cluster and a single-tone Smoke Silver paint scheme.
- Dash: Stepping up from the base model, the Dash variant offers additional features and comes in Playa Black and Gold Dip color options.
- Other Variants: Royal Enfield might introduce more variants or special editions in the future, keeping enthusiasts on their toes.
Urban-Focused Roadster
The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 is clearly aimed at the urban rider. With its sharp styling, agile handling, and a focus on comfort, it promises to be a fun and practical choice for navigating city streets. While we eagerly await the opportunity to throw a leg over one, the initial specs suggest a compelling package for those looking for a modern twist on the classic Royal Enfield appeal.

Looking for Motorcycle Fuel Bladder BagsMy locally hosted LLM (Ollama2 with Mistral) told me this with valid references
Storing petrol in plastic bag
Storing petrol in a plastic bag is strongly discouraged and potentially hazardous. The search results highlight the risks associated with this practice:Officials warn against pouring gasoline into plastic bags amid panic over gas shortages, citing the danger of fires and explosions (CBS News, May 14, 2021).
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission advises against carrying gasoline in plastic bags or any other non-approved containers (CBS News, May 14, 2021).
Experts emphasize that general-purpose plastic drums, totes, and containers are not suitable for storing gasoline, as they can react with the fuel and break down its chemical bonds (The Cary Company, Trusted Since 1895).
Storing gasoline in plastic bags can lead to degradation, oxidation, and evaporation, reducing its combustibility and increasing the risk of fires and explosions (The Cary Company, Trusted Since 1895).
Plastic bags are not designed to withstand the chemical properties of gasoline, which can cause them to deteriorate and potentially ignite (ITP Packaging, May 27, 2022).
Safe Storage OptionsInstead, use containers specifically manufactured for gasoline storage, such as:
Type I Safety Cans and Type II Safety Cans (The Cary Company, Trusted Since 1895)
Steel drums (ITP Packaging, May 27, 2022)
These containers are designed to withstand the chemical properties of gasoline and provide a safe and secure storage solution.Conclusion
Storing petrol in a plastic bag is a dangerous practice that can lead to fires, explosions, and other hazards. It is essential to use approved containers specifically designed for gasoline storage to ensure safe handling and storage of this flammable liquid.
