    Awesome

    Really a wonderful writeup. I was actually waiting to read your words about your beast. Loved every line of it. Like you said on Facebook, zuki is the best!! Oh.... sorry this is me Sylvester
    With great Power(and Torque) comes great responsibility.

        Thanks Venkat, You have explained it very clearly. So here I am using the function, I hope correctly

        ...and still it doesnt look like a monster. It is so carefully and elegantly designed..I mean, even the side stand is atristically designed.

        Atul, mighty congrats for the mighty cruiser. In the times (and place ofcourse) where people are attracted more towards the fully-faired bikes, you have taken a very good decision.

        Arup is a good friend of mine and thus I know one day we will ride together. Lets add little red-white-blue to your black & white combo
        Waiting for that day to come soon. Congrats again.
        Thanks Ashtorque. Beautifully put, the specs are amazing and the looks are even better. Sometimes sitting in office, I almost ache for the weekend. I am sure we will ride together. Infact I still remember the goosebumps I got when Arup was telling me all about his early morning ride. I am sure it would be a dream. I am also looking forward to some tips on riding and maintenance from you as we go along.

        Pardon me folks .. get a little poetic in these matters
        Arup bhai - Banker, Biker, Author, Poet, Musician. For the first time in my life I am waiting for Monsoons to get over quickly. The western Ghats shall be crossed and we will all go riding. Their can't be a fit reply to your Poem so let me just quote Kipling...
        With march and countermarchings --
        With weight of wheeling hosts --
        Stray mob or bands embattled --
        We ring the chosen coasts:
        And, careless of our clamour
        That bids the stranger fly,
        At peace with our pickets
        The wild white riders lie.

        Point taken, hope I succeeded

        thanks Ram, for the first time in my life, I am getting more attention than I can handle. I am riding in the rains you bet. My wife will have to lock me up to stop me from riding. It would be fun to ride together. The four of us. Cant wait to go riding....

                          Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.
