xBhp has helped me to grow is all I would like to say. It has not only given me some real GOOD friends, but has also helped me to grow as a motorcyclist and as a human being. And I am sure these friendships would continue for a lifetime.

We all are, in some or the other way, thankful to xBhp.

xBHP has bought a entire change in my lifestyle.Now all i can think of is safety.Be it on roads or in daily routine, i follow precautions.

As we all experienced here that through xbhp we found really good friends.Be it online or offline, they are there always for you

And i think it's pride to be a member of (SAFE) Biking group which i think is largest among all biking groups in India.

From here i got knowledge about all types of technical stuff and off course the TEST RIDES which when told to others (apart from xBHP) made them jealous

From my childhood, I always had a craze for bikes. Craze for touring on bikes. But everyone else around me were different.They did not have the same feel what I had. I thought, ok I was doing something wrong. Bikes are not everything.Biking was not a word on my dictionary.

But everything shed away when I first arrived at Xbhp via google. Here, I was literally overwhelmed by seeing the enormous amount of ppl belonging to a religion called BIKING. That was when I knew that I was not whom I was. I had also followed the same principles of biking without giving it a name.Without knowing what it was.But now I can proudly boast about belonging to India's largest biking community or to say, the temple of the bike god uniting all bikers under one roof. Xbhp has done wonders to my life so far. Made friends, learnt the art of safe riding, bikism etc etc. Words cannot express my feeling of gratitude which I have towards Xbhp. Long live Xbhp. Long drive Sunny bhai.. Jai Hind..

First of all a BIG Thanks to Sunny Sir coming up with this Kind of Gesture..

XBHP in my personal opinion is the best you can ever get and this is a special thanks to you Sir and to the people in it--like you. I know,that sounds a bit corny. No need to worry. Not everything on this site is corny.
XBHP someway or the other has helped in making me as a Good Human Being.

There were so many occasions to show gratitude. And yet, there were millions of times when I did not express it. Days whiz by with no time to spare and then the usual official work which prevented to pen down those wonderfull comments to any thread.

I Dream to have Everything on this website right from biking to everything else you can think of. Wow! That may be too tall an order. For now, I hope I can help you find the perfect way to share these two simple words with someone and i.e "THANK YOU"

Long Live XBHP...

1.know that changing spark plugs,etc etc will not inc. my bikes performance so it kind of saved my bike
2.came to know about the importance of helmets and got a sparx costing 7500 at 18

xBhp is responsible for making me believe in my dreams..!!

Hats off to Sunny and all who have made xBhp what it is today and what it will be tomorrow..!!

xbhp is lot to me.......when i was a child i was very fond of motorbikes.....and love to own one of them....on my 18th birthday i buy my new frnd......after this i join xbhp which helps me to communicate with bike lovers.,its only community which promote biking .....so xbhp rocks

xBHP changed my life,I must say xbhp is not only biking site but also its a social site for the bikers where we have same passion,made many closed friends here in xbhp,all thanks to "Sunny bhai" and my bike which impelled me to join this site.

• Bundle of escalation emails from Network admin for excessive usage of internet bandwidth, courtesy Tourer threads, offline G2G thread.
• Good old blessings from parents and wife for hanging out on xBHP.com all day long.
• Marked as Stunter by office colleagues because of the riding gear(I hardly do stunts).
• Marked as "Guy who changes bikes every year" by friends.
• Bashing a guy who rides without helmet.
• Great photograhper...at least for my office colleagues

Apart from these small and minor things that hardly matter, it the personal satisfaction that what matters the most. Stumbled upon to xBHP few years ago with help of Satish (ID: onlinesatish) via Orkut for my first Hyderabad Drag G2G. Later on its was all knowledge gathering, inter-person communcation, Meets, brotherhood and network.

Not just detailed knowledge of Motorcycles, but its the brotherhood that we find out in forums like these, with every one of similar interest of motorcycling that binds us. Made lots of friends, hanged out togethor for Counter-Strike Meets, Met-Just-Like-that meets is what enables the strong bond between each other. Though photograhpy has been early interest, xBHP has nurtured it to take to higher levels with inspiration and copying of some great pictures from Sunny, and great wisdom advises from beloved Oldfox...Its was great meeting Sunny, Oldfox, Sunil and Shaily at Hyderabad during Castrol Event.

at the end after xBHP it was a sensible rider, able knowledge in motorcycles, good friend to many.

Thanks to Sunny for sharing such an intersting platform and helping to it grow along with the membesr.
Not to forget the hardwroking moderators Aryan, Sunil, Ken, Rossiter, Synn, Noor, Oldfox...err did I missed any one! Thanks to all.

Well, I was planning to make a write-up sometimes during Jan 2011 when I would be completing one year of my membership, but since this thread has been started, its better to pen it down here.

1. Created a self awareness within as how to behave on road
2. Taught me on group riding etiquitte
3. TSG2G - best thing of my life to keep talking non stop nonsense only on motorcycles, engines & only about them
4. Lots of friends
5. Spiced up weekends
6. Gave me confident in life that I'll be able to handle anything w.r.t motorcycle
7. Improving my knowledge on motorcycles every single day

Just to share a little incident; sometimes during Nov 2009, I was completely frustrated with my Rx because of con mechanics & I was so devastated that I was prepared to sell my Rx & look to buy some other motorcycle. Sincerely speaking, I did not like anything that I could afford. So it was during that period I joined this community & it is only due to the great people & wonderful community here that I'm able to ride my Rx with pride everyday.

Last but not the least, this community helped me realize my dream on constructing a hand made, home made motorcycle - Rx100 2010 model. I really attribute my biggest Thanks to this community without which it would've never been possible.

Thanks a lot xBhp; Words cannot do justification to what owe back to the community. I shall look forward for every single opportunity to contribute as much as what I can for all the immense help I get everyday. Thank you xBhp.

Now xbhp is part of my life.

1.xbhp gave me a platform where I made friends with same interests.
2.It has given me a "virtual" place to hang out everyday.
3.It has taught me a lot of things related to biking , specially commonly occuring issues and solution to the "p220"
4.Sunny has inspired a lot of us to help realise our dreams.

As I say time and again ... Hats off to Sunny for creating , running , resurrecting and growing xbhp

I have been associated with XBHP from the past 6 years. All i can say that now i am a much better person, a biker and a photographer. i have learnt to be patient on the roads. i have learnt many things about different kinds of vehicles and other stuff too. I am now more technically and mentally advanced in the automotive sector because of XBHP. These six years have been the most wonderful years of my lives as i made loads of good friends here. I hope it will continue in the same way

Thank you XBHP

Thank you very much for penning down how you all feel about xBhp! Like I said, the only way I am different or fortunate is because I was the first xBhpian.
