The video was amazing in a scary way
Manan got some real talents but should be a bit more careful
Then it was the sound of the one that made me view the video twice.. WOW what a tune.. The sound itself makes you wish to ride one.. Someday

If you have noticed on the log, I left home at around 0400 hours but managed to reach the bypass only by 0630 hours. All that time lost looking for gas, stopping in the rain, putting on and taking off the raincoat... what a mess. And then us bikers, en route we took breaks totaling over 5 hours!Originally posted by AnuragAshok View PostHey Ken, What time did you reach Kharapatthar and what was the total ride time (home to Hotel)?
Finally reached Kharapathar at after 2000 hours!
Thanks.Originally posted by anshul uniyal View PostHi ken belated b'day wishes.
Enjoyed reading the logs....and the video was great...RTR was just zipping ahead....great ride there Manan.
I managed to take only 4 shots on my ride to Khirsu....coz of rains.
Last night during dinner with some xBhp members, we were precisely discussing the skill aspect of Manan's riding.
It is a pity that you did not get to shoot Khirsu. It is such a beautiful place.
Thanks.Originally posted by mashmash View PostHi Ken Da, nice video... Belated Wishes from my side.
Yes it happened to me too when I watched the video myself later!Originally posted by Mik View PostReally nice video. My head was bobbing from side to side as if i was taking the corners myself

Do not laugh... but it is true what I am going to say... search for the camera tank mount of the Ninja250R on the net. It is a direct fit on the 220 and the 200!!!Originally posted by Aryan View PostPlease do inform me about the tank-mount; everything about it! Where do I order it from, for my P200. I have been searching for one since long now.
Totally agree with the part of Manan being more careful. Do send him a PM regarding this.Originally posted by Nio View PostKen bro blated bday wishes

And I hope that your wish comes true in the not so distant future!
The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

Interesting log there and nice video. The traffic in the hills is very depressing at times. When I go past good corners with traffic I always wonder, I wish I could've taken this corner much faster!
Waiting for the rest..sigpic

Not done. Out here when it rains it pours and yet we have to shoot. Carry a umbrella or better still buy a raincover for your SLR. You'll get it for around 2k in delhi itself!!Originally posted by ken cool View PostNot really. Too much rain. Could not really take the camera out.

Wish I could see the R1's speedo a bit clearer though.

Yes, I have seen such a 'rain-cover' for my 400D at some shop in Chandni Chowk about a year back! I think I'll get one in a few days, as my heart wants to ride out to the hills yet again!Originally posted by ken cool View PostHey Jukebox. Good to see you. Raincover for my SLR?

Wow! That video is special. Going like that turns after turns needs some talent. Maybe due to narrow cam angle, but some overtaking maneuvers seemed outright risky and too much dependent on other drivers' judgements.
Anyways, I am downloading that video right now!
Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!
