    • Gr8 thread,

      Have been to ladakh once and after looking at the pics i miss the place so much more.

      We went there in car and hired bikes to roam around the place.

      Would love to go there again and this time biking all the way !

      Cheers

        Don't have more words for it, but I'm bound to appriciate your dedication to the thread/triplog and the ride as well.

        Hats off to you, sir.

        Sure will be glad to meet you. If you are coming to pune, drop me a message and we can fix up meeting time and place. I have tentative plans of passing through Ahmedabad sometime in March. Let's see.

                • This is information for all FZ owners -

                  I had fitted Eurogrip tyre (by TVS) on rear. Size - 120/80-17.

                  Awesome performance. Did not even needed to check air pressure once during the whole ride.

                        • great post vishwas !!!

                          your way of writing is very good and especially jotting down small small points like addresses n phone numbers of residing places & mechanics... thats is a great thing, not many people do (including me)...
                          5/5...

                          take care...

                            Thanks for the compliments. However, please understand that I am not the right person to take tips for Leh trip. I can direct you to people who have done this route for 5-10 times. They are much more experienced than me.

                            How come we haven't met even after being in the same city?

                            Thanks rahul. Just wanted to share info with other riders so that they don't waste time searching for place to stay / get bikes repaired.
