    If xionite's news is correct then i think Xbhp will lose some of its sheen and that will be a tragedy...

    Paisa badi kutti cheez hoti hai.......jo ek phool ko bajeeche se tod ke hotel ke guldaste mein pahuncha deta hai.


    I just wish change is for good.....fingers crossed.


    Thanks to all the mods and sunny bhai for serving us so well till date and wishing to see you more n more in the future....
    It's not the hours you put in, it's what you put in the hours!

      Sunny has done enough to make us guessing in dark
      ()+that MnM post contributing to it in humuonguog terms

      I hope it is just a mis interpretation
      Ya fir-
      1. Really selling off xbhp? (Someone has recognised the market value of XBHP and xbhp-sunny is going Hotmail-S.B. way)
      2. Just another tricky joke? XBHP getting a new avatar, going even better?
      3. Just a promotion?
      4. Sunny's id has been hacked?

      Keep drooling.Fingers crossed.......

        It gave me a 1000 Volts shock when I saw the message for the first time.. But after going through the Thread, I am a bit relaxed and almost certain that on 28th will see xBHP in a new Avtar..

        Believe me, in office whenever I get some free time (even 2 or 3 mins) xBHP is the site I browse always.. I hardly spend 5 or less mins in any other community sites like Facebook, Twitter etc.. But in xBHP, I cant count the mins or hours I spend.. Just keep exploring the site..

        I am in love with this site..

          They now have controlling rights. 51% to be precise.

          They plan on re-launching xBHP on the 28th of September in an all new avatar.
          It will be renamed/rebranded under the M&M badge.

          M&M thought that the best way to launch the bike would be through xBHP.

          A Spokesperson for M&M was quoted saying,
          "Having read the overwhelming response in the Tested in Italy, Coming to
          India. New Mahindra 2-wheeler
          teaser video! thread on xBHP, we have
          decided to launch the bike under a brand-name that bikers are familiar with.
          One that would give us a good start in the performance two-wheeler market.
          xBHP is that brand.

          So as of the 28th of September we will re-launch the website in a all new Avatar."

          the xBhp.com: For Bikers by Bikers URL will be forwarded to the new M&M biking forum.

          time to forward my news to ********
          Whats the source?

            I just saw a M&M Two wheelers AD on TV stating "Coming Soon" tested in Italy also mentioned.
            Launch of new M & M bike probably..
            Hopefully we all will be able to post the same way as we used & discuss the same way.

              Errrr .... Its not even April so that I could say its an April Fool's Joke ! ..... on serious note if that M&M thingy is true then it surely the worst thing that can happen to xBhp known for its independent and unbaised soul !! ...... We bikers across India have lots of faith in xBhp and its founders .... Please dont insult it by commercializing this nascent site !! ......... If its something to do with insufficient funds to maintain servers and stuff u can always start a new donation thread where die-heart fans like us will willingly donate our bit and help the forum to survive in whichever way we can !! ....... But selling it off to some particular brand doesnt serve the very purpose we joined this forum !! ......... Finally I just pray that on 28th Sept, 2010 we would be logging on to this same forum with a makeover !! ........ And yeah dare u change the name to anything else other than xBhp ... We already have loads of T-Shirts and Stickers floating around in our community !! ....... Its now our identity on roads ..... So plzzzzzzzz dont change the name !!!

                Sunny bhai why choose to put this up exactly a week before the date you say you will tell us what its all about!!

                I think you need to give us a "off the record" here...

                  @Sachinnair The teaser has been doing rounds since long now i think. We are not discussing M&M bike launch here. Is has another THREAD.
                  Thanks for the concern but I am eager to know the source of this above mentioned news

                  I agree with rony, Sunny, we do deserve an early explaination. Atleast something

                    Hoping for something even better in store, closure would be demoralizing for new bikers like me.

                      I went through this thread & was shocked to know about this. When i had read pulsater's post & the angry replies to it i was laughing my a** out. People took it too seriously. Anyways i guess that the xbhp is going to have a change which would be interesting. I remember sunny on his birthday announcing that he would give a gift to all those who had wished him. So maybe this is the gift in the form of a new renovated xbhp. Its just my guess.

                        waise bhi woh phool murja ke gir jayega. Kitne din chalega? Kam se kam guldaste ki shaan to badayi aur maali ko paisa to mila!

                        I think even if M&M is buying the forum, I am happy for Sunny. he has given so many years and I think there is nothing wrong in it.

                        However I also know that he will probably come up with a new forum for us to interact. So chill out guys!

                            HELL NO...

                            this cant be true.. xbhp offline???? shit..

                            if this any sort of joke, this is the sickest and the worst one. however, we will be happiest gang of bikers if this is declared as a joke.

                            I do not know any of the moderators and hence will not exactly say anything to them, but whatever be the reasons, we want our xbhp back.

                            This comuntity has been a lot more than just an ip address with some users logging in and out.
                            It has been the heart of some of the best bikers in the country today.
                            A name on the shirt cos of which my parents bean to think that our boy has grown up. having made the best of the responsible biker in me as yet..
                            The person I had not known is now blossoming and this is whats the outcome??

                            ever heard of going suicidal??? i guess there is nothing next to what the feeling is now...
                            i am still believing that what i am seeing now is just a dream gone suddenly bad.
                            Please dont wake me till it gets the right way again.
                            now i understand why my mom cried when "Mihir Virani" of the famous KYUNKI SAAS BHI KABHI BAHU THI" was rumoured to be killed

                            If this is the end of xbhp as a site of best budding bikers in the town, then i wish such a site never comes up again. not because I sympathesise the site but because I dont want anyone to be so involved in any site.
                            we are all being left high and dry.
                            God knows the reasons and I believe our sunny wont let us down.
                            whatever be the reasons for pulling down this site please spring back up again with a new site.

                            I dont know why but i quote a famous poem here:-
                            Mind Without Fear
                            Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
                            Where knowledge is free;
                            Where the world has not been broken up
                            into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
                            Where words come out from the depth of truth;
                            Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
                            Where the clear stream of reason
                            has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
                            Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action---
                            Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

                              Creative person like sunny will let all of our feelings down ? Do you think that ?

                              xbhp creates bikers around. My biking journey started with xbhp and whatever is happening today only because of xbhp.

                              I am so happy to know that something new is coming. And I am 100% sure about this.

                              My prediction

                              1. vBulletin latest version
                              2. a new journey says, a new name

                              Lets play a game now.

                              Start predicting about our love xbhp. Who will be nearest to the true Sunny must give him/her award or something like that

                              Lets start.

                              I have given mine above

                              now its your turn

                                Sure and eagerly expecting a new avatar for XBHP.

                                and for the M&M taking up xbhp things, i think it is not true... guyz check the link M&M-ties-up-with-Indiabikers.com

                                Mahindra 2 Wheelers ties up with www.indiabikers.com to offer people who love motorcycling the journey of a lifetime

                                P.S. has anyone heard about the site Indiabikers.com earlier.
