        Grew up playing around Vespa 150 (1970 model). Started riding two wheeler at the age of about 12. I used to get my dad's Vespa scooter down from its parked place and Start it initially but then pushed it around.
        Pushing was assisted by my younger brother 7-8 years old then. Later learnt well and bought a KB100RTZ in 1989 to commute to college.
        Still own that bike. Not riding it though. Trying to get it rebuilt.
        During those learning days, My uncle's TVS Champ was one moped that helped me a lot. I used to ride it whenever i went to my native place during holidays.

            Only then I got enough money to buy one without loan. Also, didn't like any bike till then. Then cam FZ, which compelled me to learn. Learnt friend's Unicorn for one hour, and bought FZ the next day 😃

                      I was 14 years old, studying in 9th class.
                      I rose my friend's chetak.
                      Still remember the shaking of my legs when I got down of it after riding about 1.5 Kms.
                      I would like to thank my legs for supporting me, my arms for being always by my side and my fingers; I could always count on them.

                            I remeber the scooter it was queer looking one with a lot of plastic cladding and it failed miserably in the market. Ah good old 90's

                            Better to be safe than sorry... no worry about being too cautious. Every one takes their time to get used to the bike. Practise braking with combination of both front and back brakes. Leaning in and out of corners etc. Most of all defensive riding is the best. Cheers
