    • hiiiii guyz..

      so finally v r bak home.!!
      trying to recover from this massssive journey ever had..!! its was a lifetime opportunity. been to thru couples of states, lot of cities, tones of villages.. came accross different peopley & culture..!!

      was indeed awesome.. thnx to all the guyz who stood by us & supported us so much when it was required..!
      felt on the top of the worl when people here used to care, talk & b concerned bout us when v whr on the journey.. lucky to hav u'll brother..!!

      many thnx to Delhi xBHPians who helped us in a real big way... they literally escorted in a wonderful way to the hotel, where already hotel was finalized..!!
      else it would had been a task for us to locate a cheap & good place to stay..
      Thnx guyz for being there, couldnt have expected more than this.! will never forget it..!!
      each of them are so cool..!!! felt amazing to meet them goin on our bikes all the way to delhi..!

      fyi.. my zma didnt gave any problems throughout any of the mountains climb around Leh.. due to high altitudes there was loss of power & hiccups where encountered, but then it was in all the bikes including the bullet..!! performance drops down & third gear starts feeling being a top gear..
      seriously the bike performed really well, & it was wonderfully comfortable, no body-ache at all throughout the ride, we rode 10 hrs a day for almost 20 days..!!
      the MRF Meteor tyre perfermed brilliantly on the hard rocks & bad terrain, the hard compound with big blocks stood like a rock .. my & razors bike got punctured but it was somewhere around the end of Rajasthan while on the journey back home..!!
      None of the bikes gave any problem in the mountains..!! Infact my engines oil was really extremely less..!! when we checked the oil somewhere after amritsar while coming bak, it was hardly 200ml ..!!
      I would say any bike can do it.. just has to be your TAMED bike, which knows u & u know her..!!


      trip log is cooking & tones of pix will be uploaded on a new thead soon.. plz give me some time for the preparations..

      • ^^^Welcome back to infinity brother...
        Its been an amazing time, trying to track down you pricks
        & getting all excited learning about your progress on altitudes...
        Every time I heard sumthing big, I said "f**krs, saale mujhe chood ke chale gaye..."
        Anyways, good to have you guys back home safely.
        Waiting to hear from Winzee, kitthe hai bhai

          hey spidy its so good to be back on xBHP.. i missed it like crazy.. only access to xBHP was from Razors cell in case of network availability..! so missed u ppl man..!
          me & gopi would inform about the updates to fellow members as much as we could..! we where equally excited & more than happy to c ppl being so much curious to know about our status.. the no. of posts & pages tells itself..!
          finding the posts, messages, calls we realized.. "Yeah man, we doing a real big thing coming from Mumbai on bike to Leh & returning back on bike... !!"

          next time i will seriously try to make it when u guyz planned to get LEH'd.. am freaked out looking at the beauties & now am sure, GOD stayed there.!!... this is the eye opener for us to see how the Real India looks like.! Its damn beautiful than any other place around the globe am sure.!
          Really proud to be an Indian & now knowing bit of Indian Army guyz in freezing snnow just to protect our motherland, kargil memorial, wagha border, jallianwalla bagh i would request god to make me an indian every birth i take.. no matter in any form.!!
          this journey has touched our hearts..!

                                Bring it on Rachit (and company). Although, I did not get the opportunity to meet you guys when you all were in Delhi, but would surely enjoy reading through the 'log and seeing those pictures that you guys must have clicked.
