        You should get yourself Bagster saddlebags if you plan to travel long like this on your R6! Get something like what I have.

                Hmm i think i had seen you. I faintly recall your face as till now i have not got that privilege to meet you in person and have seen your picture on xbhp lonnnggg back so was not sure at that time. If it was you, then you were alone standing on pushkar streets in the morning. Me and my friend were going towards the fair ground where the camel race n tug-of war is held. My friend had a big video camera along with a tripod mounted on his shoulders and i had 2 cameras on me hehe i was just carrying it for him..i dont know the 'P' of photography. And i felt like coming towards you(now i feel mostly it was you) asking are you our kenda from delhi But it was too crowded and my friend was lil ahead and stopping meant getting lost so couldnt.

                Anyways now going through your gallery i feel i should bug you for a day to get few photography tips So if im in delhi ill surely bug you. and if by any chance you visit Mumbai..please do let me know..we can have a small meetup

                thanks mav..ya i shall surely upload the video but you wont be able to hear my R6 because my friend shot it on his Enfield ...so you will experience the vocal thump of an Enfield and visual treat of the R6

                    Damn neat! Though I couldnt see the pics yet as my office blocks picassa!
                    Nice to read the log and all!

                    Get rid of that bagpack man..... it will rip you apart like Ken da said... also it will make it difficult for you to move around... throw in saddle bags and you will feel the difference!

                    BTW another ride being planned around 24-30th :P wanna tag along or lend your bike :P

                                DAY 2

                                JJJ

                                Bhaiya Fauji Ho ?J He started asking what is this ? I told him its all over my body, I am coming on a bike from Mumbai and so this is my protective gear. With little skepticism though but he understood and let me in. Had my darshan, Gave him 100/- for better service and started walking towards my bike. One guy comes who saw me on my bike came towards me asking for the price of the bike. Had a small talk with him and then went on my way towards the parking lot, but by mistake reached a different parking lot. Was thinking about asking someone and saw the same guy whom I met just few minutes before coming towards me. Asked him about the other parking lot and he first directed and then very sweetly said he will leave me till there on his bike J



                                Here in Jaipur I had come just to meet my Sali I called her and left my bags and bike in the compound where she stays as a paying guest. Went for dinner with her and her room mate J By the time we returned I was very sleepy and feeling lazy. Both of them asked me to stay with them and didnt want me to stay at any hotel, they wanted to tell that to me since long..but were not sure whether I will be able to adjust with them in their humble room. I was like if I can sleep in tents in jungles this room is a luxury compared to that J So they informed their landlord, Dadaji is what they call him.

                                Though guys are not allowed in their rooms but then an exception was made for me. Both of them were so so happy.

                                Hmm end of day 2.

                                Guys I am not very good at writing and really didnt spend much time editing. Please ignore if the write up is too lengthy i seriously have not done writing. Whatever i wrote in my life was on XBHP and for my passion called biking
