Re: Crazy comments u heard about bikes

Well, I have my share of funny comments from others about my bikes...

Back in 2001 - I purchased a 2nd hand (or was it 3rd? who cares!) RD 350. I spent hell of a money to really make it nice and it was one hell of a bike. When I took it to my office in Mumbai (I used to work in SEEPZ area at that time with TCS), one colleague asked - how many gears it has - I said 6! Most Indian bikes only had 4 back then - except CBZ. He then says - I once sat on a bike with 7 gears and it was an imported super bike...Well, I said great, why don't you sit as a pillion on my RD 350 for 2 minutes...

He said yes and sat with me as a pillion...In next 2 seconds he was screaming loudly asking the GOD to forgive all his sins but I should stop my bike and let him get off!! That was only 1st gear of RD 350!! After that day, he never uttered any words about any imported superbike and never dared to sit with me

Recently in 2012 when I bought Duke and also now in 2015 when I just bought my street triple - many are saying - what's the use of buying such a nice bike...where are the roads to go fast on those! While there is some amount of truth in that, their definition of FAST is too basic...Many are considering anything above 60-70 kmph as "FAST".

I said - ok, you think there are no roads here to go fast right? let's go for a very short ride - less than 1 km! One of the more daring guys says - ok - let's go...
There we go on my DUKE 200 - whaaaaaaaam! in 6-8 seconds we crossed 80 kmph already and the guy got a shock of his life - how can a small looking bike be so fast! Many people equate higher cc and higher power....They think BULLET is the epitome of power and style....because of 350-500 cc options and fatt-fatt sound! After experiencing DUKE, they could not believe it!

Similarly on Triumph - some are appreciating while some are saying - yaar itne me to Honda city aa jaayegi (one can get a Honda City for that amount) - well, I said I have actually already bought Honda City and that cost less because of being 2nd hand Then some people are actually calling me crazy!
But because now they already knew about my Duke, they are not saying anymore "where are the roads to go fast!" They are sure that if I was reaching 80 kmph on Duke then Street Triple would surely be faster on same road....

hi brother,


I wonder, had your RD-350 been fully ported, what would have been your colleague's reaction. Imagine, you are riding your RD at 165 km/hr + and your colleague flying backwards in the air, screaming for mercy.

Most of the people in our country don't even have basic knowledge about bikes. They just say, what they hear from others, who unfortunately are even worse. And lots of them always boasts about their Rossi like skills in their youth and college days. Sometimes, its really annoying.

And many many congratulations on buying the triumph street triple. She is an amazing machine. Do share pics of your bikes.


Cheers......

Re: Crazy comments u heard about bikes

When my wife saw my CL500, her first comment was about the tank...

It looks a pregnant cow's belly...I was life WTF???

The she started commenting/saying about the wheel spoke... I wonder why people waste such time in putting in these things...it looks like a mess, you better change it like the one in FZ..that looks much better...

I was fuming inside and smiling...and replied back...No point in blowing horn in deaf persons ears

hi brother,

Lol.... Women always think from a different perspective. We can never argue with them. My girlfriend hated the KTM RC-390 rear end, when she saw it for
the first time. She asked -- would you like any girl with her ass held up so high ? In my heart, I said-- ABSOLEUTLY.

But on the outside, I told her-- NO.


Cheers.....

Re: Crazy comments u heard about bikes


Now THAT's how you do it !

And cogratulations on your new speed machine buddy.

Good job turning those snobby smiles upside down....ohh wait,.. into wide open mouth screams but i would like to warn/share something here...

Once i also dared/lured a moron onto the backseat of my 390. I was grinning inside thinking about HIS daylight nightmare which was going to happen but then suddenly it turned into OUR nightmare-
I was almost done with the short speed dash and fully satisfied that my pillion's blood has sufficiently curdled up, when that j**k**s jumped off the seat onto the curb disrupting my balance so much that i lost control of my bike and crashed !!

So next time please take this also into consideration.
You never know how a person's going to react who hasn't gone past 60-70 kph & you slap him/her with winds going over 150 kph ;p

Re: Crazy comments u heard about bikes



hi brother,


THAT'S a very important point you have made. We must not forget that a guy, who is already boasting about his bravery and lying about his biking experiences
has to be big snob and a scared person. Sometimes, pillions get so scared, that they even jump from the pillion seat. But, you have taught them a real lesson on your 390.

Imagine---make someone sit as a pillion on an H2R.


Cheers.....

Re: Crazy comments u heard about bikes

Kawasaki Ninja H2 as well as H2R are rider only bikes. There is no provision for pillion in the stock form.

Re: Crazy comments u heard about bikes


hello sir,


Sorry, I didn't have that detail about H2R.

Re: Crazy comments u heard about bikes

One can always go for "Parasailing" behind H2/H2R.. !!

Re: Crazy comments u heard about bikes


hi brother,


That actually is a better idea. Making the pillion feel close to nature and mother air and mother earth. and that too without any riding gear. Rider in full
riding gear and pillion in loose t-shirt, shorts, parasailing in his chappals. behind an H2R.

Cheers......

Re: Crazy comments u heard about bikes

Have to say I love the way your creativity flows. Read that and was like why not shoot it for people are awesome Indian edition [emoji16]
