  • Welcome the new year with new moderators on xBhp

    Bikers,

    Please welcome 2 new faces in the xBhp moderation team, @psr sir & @
    b7ackthorn

    For those who have been regular on xBhp, both of these names don't need any introduction. They have been around for many years now, sharing their knowledge with the fellow bikers. However, for the sake of it, here's their brief intro

    @psr sir aka PS Raghavan was born on 24-01-1952 , his earnest liking for any mechanical moving parts started early...it started at the age of 5 with loosening tri-cycle wheels and removing them, which often caused his brothers to crash! Their tricycles handle bar would turn but wheel would remain straight and they would crash into walls....



    So began his learning, and by the age of 15 he could take a bi-cycle apart and reassemble with ease, and he subsequently started working on his brother's motorcycles, doing clutch and brake adjustments, besides spark plug cleaning. For this allowed him to start the bikes now and then, and some times ride a few meters, which soon stopped after meeting a tree or a wall, and from there he understood the buffering effect of the front pneumatic tire!

    PSR sir as we know him did a Diploma in Automobile Engineering, and there after the confidence within the family grew, and soon was attending to the cars in the family. He bought his first Motorcycle, with his own money at the age of 22, and since then has owned many Powered means of transport.


    Engines, be it the motorcycles, or car,or Locomotives, or Jet engines all fascinating for him, and his has been a continuous journey to learn and share as much as possible.


    Besides this Electronics, and Electro Acoustics are his other Favorite Subjects which keeps him occupied.

    B7ACKTHORN Aka Vijay has been an avid follower of xBhp as his love for motorcycles and the essence of it was taken to a new level through this forum. Spreading this essence, the knowledge the freedom that he gained from xBhp to fellow members has always been imperative for him. When not browsing xBhp, he can be seen riding a Pulsar 220 on the twisty roads of Ooty, which is his native place.

            Congratulations @psr ji and @B7ACKTHORN I hope we will see cleaner threads, a newer direction of xbhp towards education, safety: riding gears etc., controlling matter on dubious claims and in the end the spirit of what motorcycle riding is all about.


            Cheers,

                    As much as I am happy for the top brass for making me and psr ji moderators, I guess I would like to take this opportunity to thank every single fellow member who in someway helped me and fellow members, with all your posts, to learn, to help and most of all, make one a better person.

                    xBhp has been one platform that I just can't express the respect and love that I have.

                    Hope we all make this platform the best now and forever.

                    Once again, psr ji, heart felt congratulations. Your posts have been nothing but both inspiring and knowledgable. Hope to learn from you as always.

                    Thanks to fellow folks for providing your continued support.

                    Cheers!

                    Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
                    The girl said, 'NO!'


                    And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


                    THE END

                            Congrats Sir and B7acky.... Good to see very active members as moderator. Problem is, in past, members, after becoming mod, dont really post much, except approving the threads. Hopefully our very own Bikipedia sir keeps on contributing....
