The new rubber helps Hrishi get his knee down and dirty, while keeping it all tidy

Ceat Zoom Rad

The definition of a premium ‘sporty’ motorcycle is changing. People are bypassing the 150cc premium commuters and heading straight to the more powerful 200-400cc range of motorcycles. And that obviously ups the challenges for the component manufacturers as well. Our in-house professional stunter’s Bajaj Pulsar NS200 comes with bias tyres and when Ceat sent us a Zoom Rad rear tyre, Hrishi was excited to improve his cornering game. Who better to tell the story of tyre performance than a stunter whose life is spent on one wheel or with the knee kissing tarmac?

John Surtees an Appreciation

The first time I saw John Surtees was at Montlhery where he had come to demonstrate his old 1959 World Championship winning MV Agusta 500 and 350 machines. This was sometime in the mid-1990s and while I couldn’t get to speak with him then, his smooth clean and effortless riding style on the bumpy banking and through the notorious infield made me marvel at his imperious style.
