I just completed my first long tour on my New CBR 150. This is how it gone....
From 10th of march when i bought my CBR, i m thinking to go for long tour. At that i have told my mum about this but she opposed me. Even my friend oppose for this tour. But i want to know if i m suitable for touring or not.
Xbhpians helped me and they are always there for me. I consulted with Abhinav, Apratim about route and accesories that are needed during ride.
After first servicing of bike, i asked mechanic that is this bike can go upto 800 km and he says " bhagao...koi dikkat nahi aayegi". I felt awesome but still there are some concerns about route. So i search for the best route and the shortest route.
Finally decided to go through Pune-sangamner-kopargaon-manmad-dhule-sendhwa-indore-Bhopal. So applied for the leave in company 3rd april for 7 days. On 4th april, i have gone through market and bought Saddle bag(Cramster) and Rider jacket( aspida)[thanks to Apratim for moto 101 shop] and gloves (pro biker).
Packed the bag at night on 4th of april. Next day at sharp 4 am, started the mini beast and started ride but there is still dark, so CBR says ' go with your will...i m always there for u'. After one hour, i have checked my average which is 72kmph. At 6 am, i ve managed to cross sangamner. I checked map and found that i m on right way...after took turn for kopargaon and sun is just rising in front of me. I said " om suryay namah" and continue my ride with soothing sun. At 11:30 am, i m on dhule and in front of M.P. Border on the dhule palasner toll....after that i m on agra-mumbai highway and again Mini beast roared to me that " hey buddy, i have high rev engine, cmon..". I said ok and then i m flying with the speed of 120 kmph.
At 1:30 pm, i m at indore and at 4:30 pm, i m in front of my house surprising everyone with the bike visit.
most important thing during ride is i have continuosly drive for 500 km and then take hault for 15 minutes. Thats why i completed my journey of 760 km in just 12 hours.
at last thanks to all xbhpians for there full support.
