Thread: Love at First Sight: HONDA CBR 650F � Yume (夢)

A dream that had been lurking in the dark since forever, a dream that forced me to push myself to new limits, a dream that had become one of my top most priorities (Apart from my family), a dream to own a SUPERBIKE has finally come true!!

Here�s presenting my all brand spanking new 2017 HONDA CBR 650F!! {Will come to it's name (Yume) part later}









My love for two wheelers had always been there (just like any other normal boy in his childhood) but the first time I realized it was when I rode a motorcycle for the first time, way back in 2003. It was a red color Bajaj Boxer which seemingly had a lot of power for me to handle. I managed to pop the clutch a little too quickly and hence the Wheelie, somehow managed to control it though and got it down!
My first two wheeler that my parents got me was a Honda Eterno which was the cool thing in town as it had much more power than the then popular Scooty or Honda Activa. I kept it for a year and a half, used it for my daily commutes to school and tuitions.
Then came in the Big Daddy, my parents got me the Hero Honda KARIZMA (Red) for my B�day, after a lot of convincing though! Every rider�s wet dream back then when it was launched as the first home grown sports tourer (Term I learnt much later in my life) in the country. It was a Big Bike, err biggest and the most beautiful bike in the country which a teenager could own and show off and which could take you very fast, this was all it was for me back then! I kept her like a baby for 7 years and sold it off only when I started working and could afford another bike.
Let�s fast forward to Jan�16, else I can write pages and pages on my biking experiences (more on this later) from 2012 to 2016 when I had bought a new RE Thunderbird 350 (New Model � Worst decision of my life) after selling off my Karizma. So Jan�16, I bought a used 2012 Ninja 650. My first Big Bike, needless to say, I was in love with that beautiful curvaceous green figure�Took it to Kasauli, Agra and a lot of weekend rides. I was very happy with the performance and the level of comfort it offered simultaneously. I used it for close to 5 months and then sadly had to sell it off due to personal commitments.
We (Me and my Wife) then decided to save money for a year and then buy a new bike as she didn�t want us to take a loan. I had set the deadline for July�17 (My B�day). Now it was during this period that my wife came to the forefront and decided that no matter what, we will buy the bike, before the deadline. Whenever I thought it will not be possible, she induced confidence into me and urged me to keep moving on the set track.

Stay tuned for Part Two�
