Smile Congrats Amul!!!

Hi Amul!!! Congrats Man!!! Welcome aboard the elite club..... I am also a newbie here!!!

Hope you enjoyed your ride back to Chengalpet....Please do write about it.

@ Madhu: Thanks Mate!!! I kept in mind what you said about the speed vs gear.... It did help a lot today morning when I went till Cunningham Road to drop my wife.... What a heck of a traffic.

========================

Something irritating happened today, I left my wife and on the way back.... I stopped at Airport Road showroom and had my registration number pasted...On the way, I was near a gully near Shanthi Sagar, I got a call from my office...so stopped the vehicle in a corner of the road and was talking to my boss and was walking on the platform...

Suddenly heard some commotion.... when I turned back.... I was shocked to see the towing vehicle was there and those guys were just taking my bike near the lorry.....I ran to them and requested them and requested them that it is just 2 days old ... they asked me to speak to the inspector...(it was still on the road). That arrogant bastard asked me to pay 300 and show him the license....

I told him the vehicle is still on the road and I was just beside it and stopped it for making a call......Saying this I turned back to see they had already lifted it and to my horror half my bike was hanging outside the lorry and it was standing on the front wheel and the side stand part of the bike...... The goondas doing this awesome public service didnot even bother to my cries that it is just a 2 day old baby ......

By then the vehicle started and this bastard asked me to come to the next street to pay....I requested him to stop and take the money there itself...by then they went off.... so I ran behind the lorry .... gave him the money and license......When they were trying to get my bike back.... I realised something was wrong with the side stand - the spring was gone .....I shouted at those guys.....nobody even bothered ......

I took the bike back to showroom, requested them to check if something else has conked off.... they checked and told me everything else is fine and changed the spring for me.....

The sight of the bike hanging from the toe vehicle is still in my eyes ..... I am not able to eat also....

Learnt a lesson a very hard way..... I will be triply careful before I park my vehicle anywhere.....It is better to stay away from these money eating @#$%ers!!!!

(sorry about the bad words guys.....I wanted to vent out my anger and also warn our friend here to be careful!!!)

Feeling a bit relieved now!!!

Nowadays this is a common sighting in Bangalore

Even in area's like whitefield and KR Puram Its happening

They played this only with two wheelers not with the white cars

Sorry to hear about the incident Baala. Feel lucky that only the side stand spring was gone. I have seen some vehicles being towed from No Parking areas here&the cops literally dragged the vehicles on the footpath&threw them onto the road You can imagine the kind of damage.
Once bitten, twice shy-next time you get a call, sit on the bike&talk!

+1, Never leave your bike on roads, the towing vehicle will sneak from the bike and doesn't even think twice about damaging your vehicle just for a few hundred bucks. BTW I thought no parking fine was some 100rs and not 300rs.

I have learnt to be shameless, and try to sit on the bike even if the guys are pushing/picking it up. They can't touch you I even do shopping from sitting on the bike, wonder why u left the bike just for talking on phone! Were you worrying your bike may overhear you

Relax, and let go, don't take too much tension about it. Its a small stuff, thank god that major stuff didn't happen!

EDIT: WOw akfara, these look great! How much? Do you need to convert the bike to DC?

This looks amazing, does it flicker like the usual pilot lamps ?
did you do any dc mods to fit the LED ??

@Baala: really sad to hear that bro.. These traffic cops are useless..
Even i hate these traffic cops after i was fined as no entry for coming to the right side of a temporary divider at mayo hall signal few weeks ago..

I was even considering damaging some parked police pulsar to get back at them but my dad said just let it go.
