Curse Of The Finals

 92012
India's curse of the Finals continues to haunt them with yet another flop performance in a final .In the last 22 final matches since 1999 India have lost 18 finals and just won 2 while it shared the title 2 times .This final belonged to Mendis who with his unique bowling action(with the flick of the middle finger ,carrom ball its called!!!!!) bowled superbly for his 8-1-13-6 .Wonder what has to be done to end the curse.

Tvs Apache RTR 160 Efi Err 2008

Few weeks back I got a call from my friend saying that Apache Rtr Efi is out.Few hours later I was at the Tvs showroom and this is what I saw at the entrance

the first thing that caught my eye was the new side air scoops ."Yes this is it, this is the Rtr Efi displayed at the Delhi Auto expo earlier this year," I thought.

A closer look revealed this :

The new side air scoops

Same sporty engine guard

Same Digital console

Same metallic bars.

Same petal disc,same grab rail etc.

And Same Name:

Wait a sec where is the name Efi ?

can't find it anywhere !!!!

and

Wasn't that supposed to have the strips instead of the one shown below

Unable to control my excitement went in to enquire the tech specs , to my disappointment the personal at the showroom informed that this not the Efi but RTR 2008.

Though the fact that there is still no Efi is a bit saddening but this Apache RTR 2008 is good ,the side air scoops add to the already good looking apache RTR giving the bike a bulky look from front. Mileage and other specs remain same.

Another change though (nothing to do with the look) is the new data logging feature which includes lap timer, 0-60 kmp time, and top speed(good one).

Riding experience soon!!!!!!!!!!!.
