    ^^ AAAARRRGGH ...
    these are the times, wen I regret being stuck with a cruiser !!
    Kawasaki Ninja : Because lazy sunday afternoons should be despatched at 160 kmph!!!
    Hyosung Aquila : Because sometimes you need to look cool while riding at 40 kmph and you can do that only on a cruiser !!!

          Would be staying at home in chennai on saturaday da.. have no clue whether the track would be free or not.

          Promise me you wont overtake me.. then we have a deal

              Naah, I'll let this one pass, ....... till maybe the Ninja is launched !!

              It might get a very expensive proposition for me if I highside out a turn, on a borrowed bike !!
              I might potter around the track on the cruiser tho !!
              Might be able to overtake some bikes down the start finish straight, while they are lapping me !!

                      Karthik..everybody's riding at different times man..i am riding towards the evening, sajiv's riding in the morning, and a couple of others at noon. It's better if we meet at the track, than wait for anyone. Maybe riding back we can all plan..

                          The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

                            One day, i went past an old couple at 100+ kmph. The next morning i read in the newspaper that an old couple died of heart attack due to 'excess sonic energy emitted by a plane like thing flying past them'... It was my R15.. !!

                            @Tibby - Your signature is a little weird . Creative but disastrous .

                              Hehehehe.. Thanks bro! I will take that as a compliment..
                              I'm open to any suggestions to make it less disastrous?

                              BTW, hows the work on Aparijith's R15 going? & i wish you had gone for the track day, with your tuned R15.. Would have been fun, for sure..

                                Nice sunday, not too hot and better chrono.
                                Not better fastest lap, but my average time is now below 2m40s on full track.
                                My best time is 2m36s. I am always far behind than killer chrono....


                                I have upload one inboard video about this day. I just keep action parts (or maybe not really action ... but parts where there is another bike visible in the video) :


                                Also another video about my 2m36s lap time :



                                If you have some probleme for watch wmv video, you can get vlc player here (free and can read a lot of video codecs).

                                Sorry for the video quality, too much vibration on the bike and also don't have time for editing the video.
