A friend of mine had bought a brand new P150 back in Sept'06, I said I wanted to ride so he gave me the keys and walked into a shop. With great gusto I got onto the bike and put the keys in and switched it on. Now I thumbed the starter, but there was no noise no cranking nothing, I was surprised. So then I tried starting with the kick, but nothing happened. Just the blank noise of cranking, now I was shit scared that something has gone wrong in the bike and my friend will blame me for it....I kicked and kicked and kicked, tried changing fuel cock positions and what not, I even tried push starting it, all this while my friend was inside the shop for a whole 15 mins.

He then steps out find me standing next to his parked bike and staring at the engine...he asked me how did I like it....I said "start nahi hua"(it did not start)...he made a concentrated expression and tried to start the bike himself, he kicked once himself and same story...it did not start....a second later he burst out laughing....:O

And that's the day I learnt about the "Engine Kill" switch.....Name:  Frustration.gif
