Default Apache RTR Refresh

Launched on the day i got money from my dad to purchase a new bike.
Earlier had a CBZ star. It matched my requirements in almost every way except it had little less performance and P220 was unavailable(No Probiking here). Went to the showroom and purchased the first bike in Chhattisgarh.

Default Yamaha "racing death" 350

i bought the bike because the car does not satisfy the need . besides the vulnerability and exposure of a bike made me actually realise how dangerous and yet exciting speed can be.

am riding a Karizma R these days.
Reason---wanted a bike that was comfortable, good bhp(thou nothing is enough), Capable of going over 100with ease, Stable in cornoring/crusing.
had a Pulsar 150 dtsi earlier, but was not very happy with the speed and Stabilty factor.
also, could afford any imported bike as of now, may be few years down the line, but as of now..KARIZMA RULEs!

at the time i bought my 150 v1 things were full of tension i wanted a bullet std, my dad wanted to get me a 100 or 125 cc machine,after many long discussions we finally came to a neutral point the P180, but a stupid service centre guy had a chat with my dad and dad learned the the 180 wasent a very economical maching so...finally after a few more long discussions we got the 150..and from day one i fell in love with my bike...even today when i see my standing the the parking lot i just cant resist taking her for a spin..

My first Bike was a TVS VICTOR

I was 18 when i got the bike. I had no other options that time where in i had saved around 10k from my part time jobs and couldn't afford 2000 rupees for the EMI payment for the Pulsars and CBZ's.

I went to a near by showroom booked the TVS Victor - Didn burn my pocket. A affordable EMI of 1000 rupees + mileage more than 70 KMPL

just booked a pulsar 180
previous bike: pulsar 180 classic
why p180 again : liked my old pulsar, though scary ride it was , and p180 is far better than 150 cuz its got more torque

though it should be noted that my old p180 was a high maintenance bike :-( , i just hope this new one is not...
