I remember once i was driving down kasturba gandhi marg from cp. It was valentine's day and this poser was riding a 180 w/o a helmet and his 'superhot' chic shouted 'yoo-hoo!!!' as they zipped past me. I said to myself that this a** h*** will surely fall at the next crossing! And as I reached the FICCI round-about, there it was! A 180 lying on the road and its riders howling in pain!

A SuperPoser burning the street's of Trivandrum on his Superbike.

I'm just sad at the pathetic SBK scene in the state.I mean firstly, very few of 'em to drool at and secondly a bunch load of dumbasses to pilot them :0 !

come on guys , that guy probably spent his whole fortune buying the bike , probably had nothing left to buy safety gear ...

[wanna_dhruv]

True that.

They might be thinking stuff like what if people think it's somebody else,man they should see me, blah blah etc.

The very reason that 80 pc of SBK's in our city [ BTW i guess there's just around 9 LOL ] are R1's show that these dumbasses buy them just for showing off [ Nothin' against R1's,but you know they just look damn good and has got that presence ].

And the even more funny thing is of late i heard the same guy in the pic has finally got some gear ! He BORROWED a helmet and a jacket ( i think it's those winter type's LOL ) i think. LOL.

He also pulls wheelies wearing short's and tank tops ! Man this guy's activities are just so hilarious ! Even funnier is the comment's of admiration he recieves from his even more dumb buddies !

On the other hand, i do guess we've got one or two guy's around whom i respect & who wear proper gear.

In fact in your profile pic the guy is also not wearing helmet....
i don't know is this you or somebody else.....
no offences buddy.......................

PoserX experiments with NOS....

[First of all a round of thanks to all my fellow bikers for having the patience to wait for a post and for keeping this thread alive. I had lost my creative spark for sometime due to work related issues. damned recession is taking its toll. Will try to be regular henceforth and try to give you guys a good laugh at poser expense]

Now after my long introduction let's get down to business..

(techno tip: Uneducated modding with bikes leads to interesting (from a 3rd person perspective) results.

Fake aftermarket parts can result in very very scientifically interesting results (again 3rd party perspective)

Yo Bikers....

This is PoserX..Now you see I hear all this hullabaloo about the new Pulsar 220 DTSi, the ZMR, Apache 180 RTR or the Ninja. I say I can whack them all in crowded roads. I saw a weirdo another day riding a big bike making BOOM BOOM sound, wearing gloves, helmet and weird thingys on his elbows and knees. on top of that gumboots reading Alpinestars.. Now how weird is that.. The other day PoserY was wearing some local red colored gumboots trying to emulate this guy. He looked like dacoit Gabbar Singh riding a P-200 out of a B-Grade hindi movie.

Anyway, when I hear all this noise about new powerful bikes, I am reminded of my favorite movie DHOOM where Hayabusa has NOS fitted on and easily makes 300 kmph.. So if I fit underseat R1 type silencers and NOS to my R-15 I can easily thrash that R1 guy. After all NOS will make by bike go 100 kmph faster.

So I take the bike to my local mod shop and ask for NOS.. The guy makes a face like I asked him to give 8 silencers to fit on my bike.Then I try to explain that NOS is that thingy that John Abraham uses on his Hayabusa to go above 300 kmph.. Finally after 15 mins of arguing he takes his mechanic to the side and has a whispered discussion..

He comes back and tells me that look boss "I can send you to a guy who can give you a can of the stuff".. Now, me and PoserY meet this slick guy who shows us a steel can with NOS logo on it and full with something.. charges us 1500 for the stuff.. when I ask him where to mount it he tells me to ask my mechanic..

My mechanic being one of my poser friends agrees to fit it.. So I take my R-15 and he gets down to business fitting the underseat silencer. Thing takes half a day and some heavy modding but it is done somehow.. Now for the NOS can... We think over it for 1/2 an hour and decide to fit it connecting it to the exhaust..smart thinking aint it.. the mechanic asks PoserY to sit on the bike and hold the silencer in place while he makes some clamps and adjustments to fit the NOS to the silencer.. Now when the NOS can is being fitted, PoserY complains of a faint smell of LPG coming from somewhere.. mechanic dismisses it saying that there is a gas refilling shop nearby..

When all the fittings are done the bike looks menacing with a NOS tank attaches to the underseat silencer and that fat 140 section tyre.. The mechanic asks me to rev the engine.. PoserY is sitting at the back of the bike staring at the silencers..

I feel happy thumb the ignition and the bike starts and when I rev it happily...

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM....

PoserY is lying 9 feet away over a heap of tyres and his hair smoking and face blackened.. I am lying face first in a heap of soiled rags and used engine oil. The mechanic looks shell shocked and is sitting with half his moustache burnt off and dazed...

The idiot had sold us a LPG can and it blew up. The R-15 has its rear seat completely blown off.. tyres half singed and the underseat silencer opened up at its end like a flower petal..So much for NOS modding..

End result (Treatment at the hospital for burnt backside and PoserY is going bald to regrow his hair.. Mechanic is detained at the local police station for suspected illegal bomb making activities.)
