    Read through completely only now , confused this for another thread on the "ONE" ...

    Rode with you on the 09 I-day ride and your passion for the "ONE" was simply amazing . Your experience on being so close to getting it and then someone beating you to it at the end and the work you put in saving up right from 8th grade . Just brilliant , Inspirational , exceptional ... will run out of objectives describing your passion towards biking .

    Hope to ride with you once again someday ...

    Cheers , have an amazing time ...

You give a whole new meaning to the words patience and persieverance. I'm crazy about the 2004 Fireblade, but the same looks isn't continued nowadays. Of course, technology has improved by leaps and bounds and I still yearn to get it.

      Dream of getting a sports bike had diminished, thanks to people around. Starting from:
      1. Lakhs of rupees for a bike??? You are crazy dude!!
      2. It's any day better to buy a car than a sports bike(bwahahaha....)
      3. You seem to be very rich
      4. Sports bike? You?? Yeah, right. All the best.

      But, each time, I remember your story and get a boost to my dreams. I'll never let it fade away. Got my eyes on 2-3 bikes of different categories. I WILL get my bike, even if it is a few years down the line. Thank you again for the inspiring story All the very best for your future and ride safe!
      thanks RD, as long as the urge remians..you can..
      My best wishes for the pursuit...
      What matters is not the money you spent on it, but the feeling you get every time you see the bike and know it is YOURS and no one can ever change or steal that from you..

          would love to join in . Have been subject to a lot of bike trouble and hence haven't been active on the riding scene , will surely make it to one soon .

                Wonderful Strider,

                Its really a heart touching dream-cum-true Story. This would be my favorite thread and will be an inspiration to my Son who wants an R1, he is now 2yrs old.

                              9000kms and counting

                              Having covered about 6500kms on the R1 in an year, I am still amazed by where it can take you

                              For the next service, the R1 will need new set of spark plugs.

                              Off late the street dogs and neighbors have stopped complaining since I push the bike for 500m(beats every other form of workouts) and then crank during the wee hours

                              @Anupam - Sorry for the late reply, looking forward to hear about your Busa in the future, All the best

                                Good stuff bro, great spirit to see someone save and save to realise a dream, makes the effort more worthwhile, usually it's spoilt rich kids who get gifts from daddy or mummy, who get bikes like this (In India, atleast)
                                Maximum respect bro, I also have an R1, trouble is it has a five aswell

                                Enjoy and take good care of her!
                                Beware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!
                                More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread eaters !
                                Statistics show that more than 75 % of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread !
                                Bread is known to be extremely addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water, actually begged for bread after just two days !
                                Bread has been proven to kill. Scientists have now uncovered alarming evidence that 100% of the people who eat bread will eventually die !
