      Ketan bhai, DK Bhai & Tushar Bhai - This is amazing, really! You guys are inspiration for others who have also done it after your successful attempt. Completing this kind of endurance ride on 150cc bikes in our road conditions is a fantastic achievement.

      Have a look at the bikes and kms covered by others. Phew! Well done guys!!

      Ride Safe!!!

      • Punha ekdaa...Abhinandan !
        A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

              Do u understand Bun Burner Gold and Bun Burner 2500K are two DIFFERENT things. Bun Burner Gold is an extreme ride and without any doubt not meant for India. IBA website has all the details and before plunging into something that is hell risky and needs lots of planning, just do your homework. As per my last query, IBA is not going to certify such rides for the simple reason the average speed breaks the speed limit in India. My mail chain conversation with IBA personnel.

              "All of our non-geographically themed rides (e.g., the Ultimate Coast-to-Coast can only be done in North America) can be done anywhere in the world, where legal. I understand that speed limits for motorcycles in India are considerably lower than in the US. So I need to remind Indian riders that we will not certify a ride on a route where the average legal speed limit for motorcycles is lower than the average speed needed for the ride. For example, one needs to average about 67 kph to complete the Saddlesore 1600k (1,609 km in 24 hours or less) within the time limit. So the route would need to have an average legal speed limit for motorcycles of at least 67 kph.

              Two things.You ll need atleast SS1600k in your kitty as an eligibility criteria for BB2500K gold attempt. And second and most important thing.My mentor Vinu deceased in such an attempt for BB Gold (http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/coffee-l...v-no-more.html)

                i fully concur with what juris is saying

                BBgold is something which shouldn't be attempted even on higher displacement bikes let alone the r15, in india for the simple fact that maintaining an average above 100 kmph for extended time is simply not possible in our conditions
