        The Inception

        18th March- Km 14 on the odo
        Place- Showroom in Gurgaon
        Motive- Delivery of Black Beast

        20th March- Km on the odo- 350
        Black Beast has covered 336 kms in a matter of 48 hours.

        Now for 2 weeks black beast stayed in the parking of my house doing nothing and was eagerly waiting to head out somewhere and then came 9th April when it was time to unleash the beast on the highway for the first time,to tame the raw power the beast has(in a controlled manner of course).

        Date- 9th April
        Longish trip to Jaipur, solo on the black beast in 3 hrs flat from Rajiv Chowk in Gurgaon to signal for Amber in Jaipur.

        The beast was in a happy mood, covering 240 odd kms in 3 hours with the average speeds of riding as 72 kmph.

        Date- 10th April
        Place- Service centre Gurgaon
        Time- 11:30 AM
        Motive- 900 kms on the ODO and the beast is all set to get the fluids changed, i.e First service.
        The Beast was ready for real adventurous tours, to the hills.

        A little flashback- While on the trip to Jaipur, checked the whatsapp group, one of the group member was thinking of riding to the hills, I asked about what the plan is and whether I will be able to join him (last moment leaves you know).

        So after getting the Beast serviced, sent a message to the concerned person that yes the beast is ready to ride to the hills, and thus everything finalized and leave got approved and thus the waiting game started.

        Plan for the trip was-
        15th April- Leave Delhi in the afternoon.
        18th April- Back to respective homes.

        Now leaving with a Teaser pics before I start the main course.

            Nopes, but the Machines are one third of the price of these beasts and still brings a big grin to your face when you ride them.
