    Btw, what mileage did the bike give you at full throttle usage?
    Not sure about the mileage, i think i got mileage in between 30-35 due to the full throttle usage and high end top speeds

    If you are planning to do a kerala then try the wayanad route that way you will have many places to visit. I am planning a ride through there on September first week.

      Super stuff! & very nice pics..
      Doing a 1 hour one-way ride is commendable, especially with the wrist-pain..

      The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

                  Hi guys,

                  Although this is not my first long ride this was one of the rare rides i had till now. And this is my first trip log in xBhp

                  The destination: Bangalore - Trivandrum & back
                  The Ride: Yamaha R15
                  The Riders: there was no 's', there was me and my bike
                  Total Distance Covered: 1510 KM
                  What was the one side distance?
                  750 KM (via Palakkad), 760 (via Madhurai)
                  Time taken (including breaks): 10 Hours (via Palakkad), 10.5 (via Madhurai)
                  Top Speed: 148 (on speedo)
                  Milage: No Idea
                  And the route?
                  Bangalore - Hosur - Krishnagiri - Salem - Coimbatore - Palakaad - Trissur - Ernakulam (Cochin) - Alapuzha - Kollam - Trivandrum
                  Came back through?
                  Trivandrum - Nagacoil - Thirunnalveli - Madhurai - Dindigul - Karur - Salem - Krishnagiri - - Hosur - Bangalore
                  Nice ride there bud Was there doing the same stuff last week. But in a reverse order. The route we shared is highlighted in red. After 19 days of extended kerala ride it was time for return journey and i strted from Kochi - thrissur- palakaad-coimbatore-salem-krishnagiri....didnt wanted to enter blore...so took single lane roads uptill ananthapur via kadiri...and made it to hyd. Mine was 16 hours and 42 minutes fr kochi to hyd.

                  Good to see some1 being there on the same road on the same bike and doing it again
