Sure buddy!!
My plan is to leave in the first week of june 2017 and reach manali and staying there for atleast two days to be refreshed and rejuvenated for the journey ahead and then attempt for the Rohtang pass and further. I m hoping to spend atleast 15-20 days for my trip to be completed. I will go through the rohtang route and might possibly be coming bk from kargil drass, jammu route.
PLZ share your plans...

Re: Leh Ladakh 2017 Planning Thread

We are planning for Ladakh for the first time this august. Two guys on a Pulsar 180 and a CBR 250.

We have prepared an initial draft route of the trip and as such need help on if this is actually doable or not. We are looking forward to camping with our own tents.

Your suggestions and advises required.

I have seen a discover 125 on the route with a pillion climbing up the Chang la. However, on a 100cc bike, it will be very very difficult with pillion and luggage. It might be doable, but you are looking at a crazy adventure and probably some pulling/towing too.
One small 'wire in carb' modification might be needed at higher altitudes. Can be done at Leh.

ReworkD
Rework Day 9,10,11. You need to keep atleast a day or two buffer there. Also, since its a pretty exhaustive ride.. why don't you do
