The looks can divide opinion, but like it or not, you cannot ignore it for sure.Suzuki Motorcycles India's research says that there is pretty good demand for affordable 150 cc cruisers and hence, the Intruder saw the light of the day.

The Intruder does get its cruiser scheme of things right. The footpegs are set forward which give a relaxed riding position and the overall design too, is that of a typical cruiser. The fuel tank gets massive shrouds to add muscle and there are a lot of body panels on the side and at the rear as well.

As we mentioned earlier, the underpinnings of the Intruder have been borrowed from the Gixxer, but Suzuki says that the bike, in essence, is all-new. The 155cc, singe-cylinder engine is carburetted, for now, and remains the same as the Gixxer. It makes 14 bhp at 8,000 rpm and 14 Nm of peak torque at 6,000 rpm. There are a few underlying changes though. The gear ratios are different and the intake and the air box are bigger in size when compared to the Gixxer. The exhaust too is a different unit than that of the Gixxer. Thanks to the body panels and the changes in the engine, the Intruder weighs 8 kg more than the Gixxer at 148 kg. The claimed fuel efficiency figure for the Intruder is 44 kmpl.

Why Was Africa Called the Dark Continent? Email The most common answer to the question, “Why was Africa called the Dark Continent?” is that Europe did not know much about Africa until the 19 th century, but that answer is misleading. Europeans had known quite a lot, but they began ignoring earlier sources of information. More importantly, the campaign against slavery and missionary work in Africa actually intensified Europeans’ racial ideas about African people in the 1800s. They called Africa the Dark Continent, because of the mysteries and the savagery they expected to find in the “Interior ."
OPINION | Dear Congress, Either Join The Tea Party, Or Lose T-Shirt In Gujarat The BJP understands, as the Congress does not, that tea symbolizes all the fuzzy warmth of Indian culture. It is a great leveller — from the richest to the poorest, everyone drinks tea. Mahatma Gandhi famously took his tea with a pinch of salt. It was 1931, the Salt Satyagraha was a year old and his tea-serving host was the British Viceroy, Lord Irwin. Had the Indian National Congress recalled that little soupcon of history, it would not have put out a meme of a British Prime Minister ordering another Gujarati (PM Narendra Modi) to ‘go sell tea’. The Mahatma was no great votary of tea, but was a master of symbolism. Gently rubbing salt into the Imperial wound, he twinkled, “To remind us of the famous Boston Tea Party”. An exquisite reference to the genesis of American Independence, with the implicit promise of freedom for India. If only today’s Congress understood the power of symbols a tenth as well.
