Loans Against Your Car - Keep Your Car With You

Money crises can bother anyone at any time of the month. But the date of getting the paycheck is fixed and the amount you will get is also the same. That makes us helpless but we can take help by taking a loan. There are two types of loans - one is secured and the other one is unsecured. These loans come with different rates. Secured loans are relatively cheaper than the unsecured loans. In these loans you have to provide something as collateral. But the loans against car are the unsecured types of loans even with the security.

If you are looking for some cash and you want it to be a little light on your pocket as well then you may choose to go for a loan without any collateral. Loans against car are available to help you meet all your urgent needs. These loans are issued against the car that means that the car acts as collateral. The best thing is that the loan is issued against the car but you can still keep the car with you. Actually the lender keeps the logbook of the car. This is the most important document of the car.

You can get the loan according to the value of your car. These loans can range up to 120% of the car value. The repayment plan of the loan is also very flexible the tenure and the installment amount can be fixed according to the borrowers capabilities to pay the money back. If you want to pay the money in short term than you will have to pay the installments of a larger amount. So you should always decide the installment on the bases of your next paychecks. The installment should not be a burden on your next paychecks.

These loans are also available to the people running on bad credits. These scores and other such history is not relevant for the lender. You just need a car in your name and the loan will be issued to you. Lender will keep the log book of the car till you pay the money back.

The Yamaha Fazer is one of those bikes, which in some markets has stormed a sort of futuristic design revolution. In markets like India, where bike designing or peoples liking and preference for futuristic looking or designed bikes is relatively low, Yamaha Fazer is like a breath of fresh air.

The manufacturers have given attention to each and every finer detail of driving and comfort while making the bike. The designing of the bikes tank has been done in such a way that the lines flow into knee recesses ensuring continuity and flow of designing. The Yamaha Frazer sports a two valve four stroke engine which is quite distinct in its performance when compared to other products from the Yamaha’s stable. The bike also uses a system wherein oxygen is pumped into the exhaust chamber to burn the leftover or unburnt waste deposits enabling the bike to meet one of the strictest emission norms. Apart from this a catalytic converter is also installed in the exhaust chamber to further purify the fumes which are exhausted.

The Yamaha Fazer sports a 250 CC engine and a 5 speed transmission box. Its termed as an all out performance machine, with the versatility to come to terms with the requirements of its riders. It is one of those bikes which are very easy for city drive and will comfortably cruise when taken on long weekend trips, providing the riders with utmost driving comfort.

Hero Honda Karizma Review

Karizma is the bike, the wonder bike! Karizma is introduced by the Hero Honda company in the year 2003 and it is associated with many reality shows.

The design of Hero Honda Karizma is inspired by the famous Honda VFR800. Many of the things in this bike are done by keeping this Honda VFR800 in mind, including instrument panel and tank recesses. However, the sound of the horn has been in the controversies lately because the sound is very loud and that loud enough to pierce any old man’s ears. It has been reported that many people lost their sense of hearing due to this bike’s horn. The creator of horn was booked under Indian Panel Code. However, the big people were involved, hence they withdrew the case and common man started suffering. Whatever happens, in the end, the poor man suffers, even after paying so much.

Hero Honda Karizma is not just a bike but it is machine prepared for sporting purposes. However, the seat of this bike is very uncomfortable and when a person rides this bike for far distances, then there are chances of getting pain in the back because the seats are not very good installed. The handles are good and critics have praised the handling system of the bike. They have been considered as one of the easiest handles in the world and anyone can handle that, even girls who are very weak, who cannot hold anything, can hold this handle and ride wildly. The tyres affect the handling and this may result in falling. There have been many cases where people fell from this bike due to foot pegs which affect the handling and the balance was gone.

The following are some of the features:
  • Mag wheels directly from the Hero Honda factory
  • Ample stability due to the 1355 mm long wheelbase
  • Great fuel capacity with 15 liter tank and 2 liter can be used for reserve
  • Braking is considered as excellent
  • Front brakes: 276 mm disc
  • Rear brakes: 130 mm drum
  • Acceleration is maximum
  • Very powerful bike.

Opel Astra Sports Hatch Review

The latest news on the launch of Opel Astra Sports Hatch is out. The sports car is being slated for a 2011 launch. As per the initial reports the exact design and look and feel aspects of the car will be similar to the concept model which had been showcased earlier. One of the design features of the Opel Astra Sports Hatch will be to differentiate from the 5 door version. Apart from the design element, the manufacturers have also concentrated on parameters like aerodynamics, performance and efficiency making it a truly world class sports car. The strategy of the company is to capture large chunks of the sports car market segment and each and every aspect of designing and making the car is being looked into from the drivers or customers requirements and needs point of view.

The Opel Astra Sports Hatch sports a very futuristic design and there has been logic and purpose applied to each and every aspect of the car. The front grill is designed and placed in such a manner so as to direct the air well past the wheels going into the sides of the car. There is a very common problem that most of the hatch backs face, especially when driving at higher speed levels. Hatchbacks normally tend to accumulate pool of air at the rear end, when the throttle or paddle is floored. This leads to a feeling of the car getting dragged and not being able to perform up to its maximum speed limit. The body of Opel Astra Sports Hatch is being designed in such a manner that it does not let the pool accumulate, resulting in minimizing the dragging of the car.

The German car makers hope to revive their fortunes in the sports car segment with the Opel Astra Sports Hatch which is expected to lead the car market in its segment. Efforts are also being made by the car manufacturers to ensure that when the car hits the market, it get the maximum mileage and positive review not only from the critics but also from the actual targeted users, which will help propel the sales numbers of the car.

Hero Honda New Karizma R Review

I feel really proud to write a review this great bike. Hero Honda Karizma is the best that has been launched in India. Now it gets even better with the all new racer edition : The New Karizma R. The price of Karizma is Rs.84000 and the engine packs an awesome 17 horse power in a 223cc Engine..

How does it look?

Indian bikers always wished for a bike like this, a real sporty looking bike, and their dreams have come true with the Karizma. On the first look, people would comment that the bike looks like a fighter jet! The air pockets in the front of the tank has been very precisely carved to blend aerodynamics with beauty.

Hero Honda’s Engineers have put in several months of work in developing their flagship model Karizma. It is not easy to bring a foreign style to India without compromising the engine capacity and mileage (which are the most important factors for Indian bikes). The is technically the first bike in India in which the doom blends with the main body of the bike. One big advantage of this is that the handle bars are free to turn because there is no extra weight attached to it (like the head light and dashboard). Karizma is the first bike in India which came with pre-installed alloy wheels.

I like the tail part of Karizma very much. This is perhaps the only bike in India which features dual tail lamps. When you look at the tail part, it does look like a jet. The slogan ‘Jet Set Go’ is perfect. The seat is little raised for the pillion rider which gives it a really sporty look. The bike has been so perfectly designed that I could not imagine a suggestion for improvement. Considering the overall size of the bike, the tail part does seem to have the right size. In Pulsar, you can notice that the tail is too small compared to the size of its tank, but in Karizma the proportion of the sizes of various parts is perfect.

How does it perform?

I can talk about performance all day long, because I have been personally using Karizma for the past four years! But I will try to keep this short and only highlight the main points.

Karizma is undoubtedly the bike with the highest horse power in India. (Considering bikes within the 1 Lakh Range). For a bike of 223 cc, 17 hp is really great! While driving, you can feel the surge of acceleration (and the surge of adrenalin!). You feel like like Hrithik Roshan if you give a full twist to the throttle. My Karizma is the first to dash of when the signal turns green, while others try to catch up with me, I look back to see that they are left far behind!

This bike is suitable both for city riding and riding in highways. As you put the fifth gear and slowly accelerate, the bike maintains its stability upto 110 Kmph, but later it gets a little shaky. I have personally tried going upto 125 Kmph, eventhough the claimed maximum speed is higher, I wouldn’t recommend anyone to go faster than 110.

Looking into the dash board of the Karizma, we can see 2 dials, a RPM meter and a Speedometer and next to it is the digital panel which displays Fuel, a Trip meter, total distance and a digital clock! I really love the clock, I do not need to leave the handle bars to check the time in my wrist while driving! Visit the Karizma Photo Gallery to see pictures of the dash board.

The high beam and neutral indicators are situated in the speedometer dial. The indicators are bright enough so that you can easily see its status in bright sunlight.

Some people may think that such fast sport bikes are risky, but in my opinion, Karizma is the safest bike in India. Provided with adequate wheel base and body weight, the bike comes to halt easily from very high speeds without losing any stability.

How does it stand out?

For people who love this bike, it is really hard to admire the competition. Right now Pulsar 220cc seems to be the only competition for Karizma, but I would say that it does not even stand a chance with this legend.

Hero Honda Karizma’s high cost and size is not just for the looks and power. Along with it you also get something priceless… the Self Confidence and the King of the Road feeling. If in your college or institution, you are the only one with a Karizma, imagine the kind of feeling of uniqueness you will get. People will admire you for your bike and you will be known as The man who rides the Karizma.

Too many people have already bought Pulsars, CBZs and Apaches.. If you are planning to buy a 150cc bike, wait for a few months, raise some more money and go for the best. Because great people drive great bikes.

This is perhaps the only bike which has got full rating in BikeAdvice’s Reviews.

Bajaj Pulsar 300cc Speculation

Rumors are that Bajaj seem to be engaged in developing a bigger and sportier version of Bajaj Pulsar 300cc. If ever that’s happening probably it will give the Yamaha a run for its money as Pulsars are dubbed to be bikes with international features coming at Indian prices circles. But all fingers crossed at this point about neither the features nor the price and don’t know when it will hit the roads.

So, as of now the Bajaj engineers seem to enjoy the bike circles talk about their new, yet-to-be-launched newer bike, specifically the high-end Pulsar tweak, the Bajaj Pulsar 300cc. Its talked that Bajaj had Kawasaki give the initial design set up but they are going to develop it indigenously without having any Kawasaki-like looks.

There are also doubts about the front faring and as it’s going to be a 300cc bike that will fit well for racetracks, bike lovers want it to have a sporty looking front. There are some spy photos available and no one knows whether they are photoshop tweaked versions or the concept bike photos of Bajaj Pulsar 300cc. From photos, it does appear that the visor is not given proper attention. It also appears that the bike has a single cylinder and we simply cant wait to know the amount of power a single cylinder bike could deliver. People also expect that the new Bajaj Pulsar 300cc will be having a DTS-Fi engine.

As per the price industry people say that it could be well about the 1 lakh mark. Considering the Indian road conditions its all suspense as to how Bajaj will take mileage into their designing, as because at least we are not so rich to have a tank filled and it gets emptied in a few days’ time while commuting only to office; the 200cc Pulsar is giving just 30-35 kmpl and should this give around 20 kmpl it becomes a white elephant. As to the power it’s still a guessing but one can expect more than 45 bhp.

People from Yamaha and Honda say that Bajaj is not into any making of a Pulsar 300cc or so and it’s just their marketing strategy of hyping about their forthcoming launches, so people talk about the brand and promote it before even the launch has happened.

Bike lovers, especially Pulsar lovers just hope that Bajaj Pulsar 300cc gets due attention with respect to sporty looks, seat saddle, headlamps and also the kick-start option. Not to mention about the 6-speed transmission and gearshift concerns that earlier Pulsars have.

So said, Bajaj Pulsar 300cc can really brighten up the Indian automobile market and Bajaj will take over the competition by 360 degrees. All we can do is open our eyes and wait for the bike to roll down the Indian roads.

Brand New Pulsar 220 – A Surprise From Bajaj Auto

Expect the unexpected! Bajaj is going aggressive and on a rampage. In keeping up with the promise made by Bajaj to launch six bikes in the first half of the year, Bajaj is busy launching another ‘surprise’. After the ‘loaded’ upgrade to Pulsar 180 2009 edition, reports have it saying that Bajaj would launch an all new Pulsar 220 which they say would be the fastest bike in India. The bike would sport the same 220cc mill from the earlier Pulsar 220 but would have Bajaj’s DTSi technology in place of DTS-Fi. That means the bike would be carburated and will do away with the Fuel injection.

Despite the move-back to carburetor from Fuel Injector, Bajaj says this bike would be the fastest Indian bike which is expected to attain a true top speed of more than 140kmph which would make it a tad above than the existing Pulsar 220 DTS-Fi. Also expected is that the bike will blast away to 0-60 and 0-100 kmph faster than the earlier version. Mileage is expected to suffer somewhat because of the lack of Fuel Injection especially while long touring.

Now here comes the decider! Speculations have it saying that the bike would be priced way below the current FI version. The bike is expected to be priced around Rs.70,000 ex-showroom Delhi (yes….you read it right) which would make the bike around 15,000 lesser than the existing Fuel Injected version which currently sells for Rs.85,000 ex-showroom. All this is leading to make us believe that Bajaj would dispense off the existing Pulsar 200 and this new bike would replace it which would make this bike the most practical bike in India by far. The bike is expected to sport an all-black theme reminiscent to Pulsar 200 and might do-away with some existing tit-bits.

Many would question about the decision to shed off Fuel Injector, but our sixth sense is predicting that there would be another surprise in the waiting (goshh..we have become so addicted to surprises by Bajaj) we might see another ‘Big’ bike in the near future loaded with Fuel Injection and all the latest gizmos and technologies which Bajaj is known for. It must be known that Bajaj was going through a lean patch in terms of the bikes sold a few months back and this launch clearly suggests that Bajaj doesn’t want to let it go. This bike will certainly boost Bajaj the much needed volumes from this segment as well.

Bajaj has already launched XCD135, Pulsar 150 and Pulsar 180 2009 versions this year in keeping with the promise of launching six bikes during initial year and this would be the fourth bike of the promised lot. This bike would directly compete with the newly launched TVS Apache RTR 180, Hero Honda Karizma, Yamaha FZ 16/S and (soon to be launched) Fazer in terms of price and Yamaha R15 in terms of performance. Bajaj sure is taking the game ahead and we at BikeAdvice.in would keep you updated of all the happenings and updates from this stable. Keep logging in for more scoop and the latest updates on this bike.

That Motorbike Riding Sensation

Riding motorbikes can be a great means of travel, especially if you commute a lot.It is practical, cheap (as well as efficient) and it is enjoyable, all at the same time. With more and more big cities getting crowded, driving cars around can be a tough job.

This is where motorbikes come in - they are mobile, and you will not have to worry about traffic jams and parking spaces. Motorbikes are cheap, both to purchase and operate, and most of them are very affordable. This is probably why in most Asian cities motorbikes are more popular than cars. Plus, riding motorbikes all day long can be quite fun, especially if you commute a lot.

There are several kinds of motorbikes available. Those of you who love big bikes could opt for sport bikes or roadsters. Almost all popular brands, from the Japanese Yamaha and Honda to Harley Davidson and Daytona, have big sport bikes and roadsters. Imagine riding a Yamaha R6; a definite head turner. It would not be hard for you men to get dates when riding one of the available sport bikes or roadsters.

If you are looking for a more compact motorbike, average 125cc bikes from various models can be selected. They provide a nice mix of performance and efficiency, and you will enjoy travelling on them all day.

This group of bikes is lighter than sport bikes, so you will not get fatigued even if you use them for hours on end. Not compact enough, you say? A Scooter or CVT bike (also known as matic bikes) might be the one for you. They are usually fashionable, suitable for both male and female riders, and very compact. You can cruise through London traffic with ease when riding one of these.

Safety might be the main issue when riding motorbikes. Most cities (or countries) obligate riders to wear specific kind of safety equipment, from helmets to riding glasses, so make sure you comply with these safety regulations. Other than that, riding motorbikes is safe enough to do every day. There is no doubt that enjoying the wind blowing through your hair while you cruise through streets is addictive, and once you experience the true enjoyment of riding motorbikes, it will be hard for you to switch to other means of transport.

Let us take London for example. Riding motorbikes, it would not be hard for you to travel from one point to another. Whether it is work or pleasure, cruising through London on a motorbike will most definitely be exciting. You will be able to enjoy London's classic scenery even more.

Parking space? No problem, since your motorbike will be compact enough to park comfortably just about anywhere. Traffic in London can be a pain, but riding motorbikes will solve this problem as well. Before you know it, you will be enjoying sundown on the Thames right after work. Let us not forget how economical riding motorbikes are, as well.

Believe me when I say that riding motorbikes is the way to go these days. You can't get enough of that riding sensation, once you started.

Buying A Motorcycle FAQ

You can also purchase used motorcycles from a dealership, although the price there will likely be much higher than what a private party would charge. Make sure that the dealership drains and replaces the fluids in the motorcycles that it sells, and that they give each bike a check over before sale and replace parts as needed. Honda and Kawasaki bikes are generally the least inexpensive types to purchase used.

If you must buy a new motorcycle, you should know that any reputable motorcycle dealer will generally stock new bikes, and most of these dealers specialize in (Harley Davidson, Buell) or two brands of bikes (like a Yamaha/Suzuki). Also some will have the major Japanese brands) and European bikes on display. Visit a few dealers to learn the types of motorcycles that each one sells, and feel free to examine each bike closely. Dont forget that you must also factor in the cost of maintenance, even though most new bikes do come with limited warranties.

FAQ) What are some different types of motorcycles?

A) There are many different types of motorcycles, each one designed for a different purpose. Here are some of the more common types

Choppers. These types of bikes, made famous via film, have very raked forks, showy chrome, and reclined seats. Choppers are made primarily by Harley Davidson.

Dirt Bikes: Dirt bikes are motorcycles designed for off road riding and as such feature long suspension travel, minimalistic body work and frames, and knobby tires.Adventure/ Touring Dual Sports Bikes: These rugged dirt bikes are preferred by long distance riders and feature upright postures designed for lengthy rides, as well as lots and lots of suspension travel.

Scooters. these are small motorcycles with engine sizes as little as 50cc and are inspired primarily by Italian made Vespas.

Sport Bikes. These are designed for performance purposes only, and usually require arms forward riding posture, tight handling, and powerful engines.Trials Bikes. These are specialized completion bikes tailor made for specific trail events, during which motorcycles are maneuvered around off-road or man made obstacles, and riders are penalized in the event that their feet touch the ground.

Regardless of the type of bike you choose, be sure that you select one that you are excited to ride. Many people purchase motorcycles on impulse and ride them only a few times, but by putting good planning and careful thought into your motorcycle purchase, you can make sure that you arent one of them.

Making Your Bike Your Own

When you went to the motorcycle dealer, you probably figured out that a lot of the bikes look the same. Maybe you want to have your own style of motorcycle and want to make it your own bike.

When you first get your motorcycle, you may not have one that looks different then everyone else's. This is because many people want the same kind of bike that they see on TV and so they will mass produce the same styles over and over again.

If you want to make your motorcycle look different, you may be able to do this with motorcycle parts. When you go to the motorcycle parts store for any kind of parts, you may notice that they have all kinds of things that you can add to the outside of your motorcycle. When you decide that you are going to add these different motorcycle parts to the outside of your motorcycle, you will be changing the way that it looks and personalizing it to you and how you work.

You can get motorcycle parts that come in different colors as well as some that look like they are made of chrome. Depending on what you want to make your bike look like, you can add the color or other look of your choice. This will really bring out who you are in your motorcycle as well as let you keep some money in your pocket.

You can change your motorcycles look with a few simple motorcycle parts instead of going to the extreme of painting the whole body of the bike. If you are not ready to spend some money on your bikes look, you can get the motorcycle parts that glam it up for a very small amount of money compared to the costs of painting the bike.

There are many ways that you can make motorcycle parts make your bike look really good. You just need to know what you want and what you are willing to spend on it. If you are not ready to spend a large amount of money on the personalization of your motorcycle, you will need to know this before you start looking at the motorcycle parts in general. This will help to make sure that you are really getting what you are looking for and what you are going to get in the long run.

Famous Motorcycle Manufacturers & Riding

The motorcycling community has a host of subcultures that range from the brusque image of the bikers riding cruisers and choppers to the stylish ones who prefer the smaller motor scooters. But aside from the love of a particular type of bike, there are also those who prefer a specific brand over another. Here are some of the well-known motorcycle manufacturers that have gained fame because of their performance, class and significance in history.

1. Indian : was the oldest motorcycle brand in the United States until it ceased production in the 1950s. It was also the biggest motorcycle manufacturer in the world until the First World War. At the peak of its production, it was making around 20,000 bikes annually. There is a recent attempt at reviving the brand in 2006 and the company will now be known as the New Indian.

2. Harley Davidson : overtook Indian in being the largest bike manufacturer some time in the 1920s. Although it has since then lagged behind Japanese brands, it maintains a high-degree of popularity mostly due to its rumbling V-twin engines which are used in the classic models of this brand.

3. Ducati : is an Italian brand that specializes in high-performance motorcycles. Their bikes have the patented desmodromic valve design which allows for a faster operation of the valves without risking valve-float.

4. Yamaha : originally a producer of musical instruments, this company has branched out into motorcycle production. Today, it is the second-largest producer of motorcycles in the world.

Riding A Motorcycle : Now when it comes to riding a motorcycle, especially the two-wheeled ones, can be challenging particularly to those who are not familiar with riding a bicycle.

But even those who are able to ride bicycles will have to adjust to the weight of handling a motorcycle. Worry not, though, if you are just a beginner when it comes to riding a bike because this article will show you how.

a. Know thy bike : it is essential for any rider to know what each bike control does. So a good introduction on where the brakes are, for example should be done before anything else. It makes the entire process of learning to ride the bike much easier.

b. Learn how they work : so you already know where the brake, throttle and the clutch are. The next step would be to learn how to use them to make the bike run.

c. Learn to balance : those with experience riding bicycles may be surprised of the challenge of balancing a comparably heavy motorcycle. The secret here is to sit upright so that you can maintain your balance. Otherwise, you'd be zigzagging your way to a crash while trying to balance yourself on the bike.

d. Wear your safety gear : even experienced riders need to wear protective clothing that is why there's no reason why beginners shouldn't do the same. When practicing, they should be dressed to the nines - in protective clothing that is. So every rider should wear a crash helmet, protective clothing, gloves and boots.

e. Get an instructor : a professional motorcycling instructor will provide you with the right techniques in riding correctly and safely so make sure to avail of his/her services.

Repairing The Headlights On A Scooter

A scooter with the safety feature of a headlight will require some amount of maintenance so you always have a fresh bright headlight. A headlight is generally sealed tight, so little or no water is going to enter the headlight fixture. Many scooters are also available with a scoop over the headlight to prevent additional moisture from reaching the interior of the headlight.

If you do find that your headlight is getting a bit dim, or that you have moisture in the headlight fixture you should replace it. Sometimes a large jolt can break the headlight requiring replacement as well. Every scooter varies in headlight replacement needs, but the headlight is very similar to that of a car.

In order to make your scooter road worthy make sure that its turn signals breaks, headlamps, and chains are intact. This will ensure safety for both the rider as well as the vehicle. Other safety accessories that are a must with a scooter are helmets; drive belts, alarms and locks.

Since the markets have rolled out so many different types of scooters, which vary in shapes, sizes as well as functionality therefore their accessories also differ from model to model.

The headlight that requires a bulb replacement will use a very small bulb, just a size larger than that of a bulb found on a string of lights. Removing the headlight can be accomplished using a screwdriver or a wrench. Some scooters are available with easy to remove headlights that require no tools at all but the movement of a few slip connections to remove the headlight. Simply remove the old bulb, insert the new bulb, and refasten the headlight to the scooter.

Headlights that are one piece, with no interior bulb are easy to replace as well. The one-piece headlight generally is going to require a hex screwdriver or a regular screwdriver to remove the headlight. You can purchase replacement headlights through medical supply houses, through scooter retailers and online headlight sources. Knowing the make and model of your scooter will allow for easy replacement of your scooter headlight.

The once piece headlight is taken out by removing two or four screws that hold it in place. Once you have removed the screws, you pull out the headlight, and unplug the headlight from the scooter. The new headlight will plug into the electrical outlet, and then you place the headlight back into the socket. You should be sure to replace all of the screws you have taken out so your headlight is secure and in place once again.

Remember, every scooter is different, and the type of headlight your scooter is equipped with will be detailed in the manual provided with your scooter.
