I don't understand the obsession of Indian reviewers with EDM music in a good review that spoils the sound of the bike !
Every damn Indian automotive review

[trevorzzealley]

I bought a new 450 Ducati scrambler in 1970 . The Italian style design is just pure beauty . The mechanical/ electrical things can be perplexing at times . 50 years later I`m getting around on a Piaggio MP3 .I just don`t learn but I do have fun.Most of my riding is done not in a city but the Australian bush .

[supertony]

The engine still hot as hell even with light ride. Ride this in Asia and you will know HELL!

[SPSINGH-yblv]

I am not alone irritated with this cacophonous guitar sound....

Newbies need to learn how to ride, not rely on technology.


Excellent review.

[kabisayago]

Am just curious about this thing and probably no idea
Does this motorcycle has CLUTCH?

[joybanerjee]

Please suggest can somebody jump from a scooter to a ducati monster / scrambler or triumph street twin

[tpv]

STUPID HORRIBLE HORRIBLE noise (music).
SPOILT it. WHY???
Thanks anytway.

Nice bike, but the Desert Sled is too heavy.

[dhavalrohit]

does any one help me with the brand of the racing jacket he is wearing...???

[akki]

What's with the shitty music you guys. Nobody wants to hear that, just make us listen the exhaust note and the narrator's voice. That's it.

[nihley]

Fell in love with the Icon, it does everything you want it to.

[mwalters]

Turn down the music - can't hear the vocals

[ravkmr]

Hate those wires over the instrument dial!

[stormbytes]

Damn that racket is just painful on the ears

[rahulmotha]

rich guy: I need this bike for my birthday
middle class: i need to get a good job to buy this
poor guy: a picture is enough for me with this bike
Indian moms to seller: give this bike for 1 lakh, or i'll go

[MrSam]

why the engine is painted black with gloss it looks bad. looks cheap

[AravindMadhav]

are we supposed to listen to the shitty music or pay attention to the review?

[anthonyjifkins]

No better way to make a crap review than talking the entire video with annoying music in between. I want to hear the bike not your voice.

[snlsp]

that was a very bad breaking and corner!!..
