    A friend of mine had bought a brand new P150 back in Sept'06, I said I wanted to ride so he gave me the keys and walked into a shop. With great gusto I got onto the bike and put the keys in and switched it on. Now I thumbed the starter, but there was no noise no cranking nothing, I was surprised. So then I tried starting with the kick, but nothing happened. Just the blank noise of cranking, now I was shit scared that something has gone wrong in the bike and my friend will blame me for it....I kicked and kicked and kicked, tried changing fuel cock positions and what not, I even tried push starting it, all this while my friend was inside the shop for a whole 15 mins.

    He then steps out find me standing next to his parked bike and staring at the engine...he asked me how did I like it....I said "start nahi hua"(it did not start)...he made a concentrated expression and tried to start the bike himself, he kicked once himself and same story...it did not start....a second later he burst out laughing....:O

    And that's the day I learnt about the "Engine Kill" switch.....Click image for larger version

      This happened last year. My roomie had recently bought his red Unicorn. After having dinner at Ghar ka Khana, in BTM (B'lore) , he came out and tried to put his key in the slot ... didnt go in, he tried hard but the key just didnt go in .. he kept trying, suspecting that the lock was jammed coz rain-water had seeped into it. Minutes later, a tall and well built sardar came to him and asked "Bhai, koi problem hai?" .. after listening to my friends story, the sardar told him that my roomie's key wasnt going in the lock as it was the sardar's bike. My roomie's bike was standing a li'l farther.

      "Bhaisahab, main aapki pitai karne wala tha" .. was what the sardar said as he rode off.

                  Just a few days back I was in chikpet Bangalore, any Banglorean will know how crowded this place is, was stuck in traffic for close to half an hour and was cursing myself for taking that route. The traffic moved a little and I quickly took an alternate route and was happy to see the road with less traffic, most of the area in chikpet has cement roads, here I see a nice tall female well dressed, I did not see her face, but the typical adrenaline rush happened and I wanted to impress the lady, I have K & N on my bike and I revved it just to get her attention, dropped a gear and off I went next to her. Little did I realise that I was carrying a little more speed there was this old man who was walking on the road side, I braked a little late and the bike skided on the cement tarmac and I went and hit the old man and he fell down, it felt like shit. A few people gathered . I did not even turn back to see the female, I was lucky that the old man was a little reserved person or else I would have had a few ......

                  Later narrated the incident to my wife and she was laughing all the way.......

                                mine, once , coming back to bangalore after a 25 hrs ride. a trek and a horror thingy, around 3am on Mysore road, I was about to over take a truck on my lane. Then I suddenly noted that another truck is coming in wrong lane towards me. I waited for a few seconds for it slow down. But it didnt. I wanted to be safe so tucked behind this truck and waited patiently for 2/3 mins for the wrong lane truck to pass. Then wondering y its so long, I pulled behind and checked that. there I see the complete lane is empty. hmmm...........
