Any place in Bangalore when I can get my bike modified? [Wind 125]

All I want is the front changed from Drums to Disks. This would mean changing the complete front including handle bars. I would probably go for a solid looking set.
Also planning to change the exhaust with a growlier note.

Appreciate your help guys.
Thanks

It think you should ditch steel rims for alloys. will look much better

wow! that is one awesome RE!

IMO: lose the stickers (front shocks and battery box) and the 350 painted on the rear swing arm - it will give the bike a clean look.

Sure will. Actually, in the process of doing that. Problem is those arent stickers on the swing-arm, its painted, so, getting that off is also going to take some weight off my wallet. Working on an exhaust pipe for the bike as of now.

So, here are the pictures again.

here are some more pictures ..

My designs on the Pulsar 200, 180 Yamaha R15 as well as some helmets.

I have been associated with bikes since a very long time. After working for automobile magazines, this interest became a passion as I got to ride a variety of bikes. Even after leaving this profession, I am still attached to my present bike (Pulsar 200).

The problem with me is, neither can I sit idle nor do I let my bike sit idle. There is always something going on and I keep changing the look of my bike. The outcome is not always good but then, that's how it is. Even if I do not ride my bike extensively (terrified of parking it on Pune's streets), I keep on working on her in some way or the other. Then, there are always some friends who want to have their bikes' looks enhanced and I am only too pleased to help!

I have also been custom painting helmets for some time and in the past, I have designed helmets for Adil Darukhanawala (Editor - Zigwheels, Former editor - Bike / Car India, Overdrive, Car & Bike) as well as my friends. My wife, who is a qualified artist has hand painted one of my own helmet taking inspiration from Rossi's many helmets.

I have uploaded a few of my recent creations here -

Excellent man!! I like the Pulsar 200 except for the handle bar.
But, everything is a neat job.

AmarPaithankar · 12th May 2011, 10:11

Me. Boss, thank you. I have changed my bike's handlebar with that of a Bajaj Avenger is order to get a slightly upright riding stance. This helps in a comfortable ride as well as the bike handles better.

Amar,

I love you mods. The helmet done by your wife, made my day. On the other note, I am changing my Avenger handelbar to that Yamaha FZ for a more comfortable ride and relaxed shoulders.

.

Also There is a PM for you.
