  • Rourkela-Ranchi-Bodh Gaya-Patna

    Hello Bikers!

    I am planning to do a Rourkela-Ranchi-Bodh Gaya-Patna trip on my 2012 Honda Stunner 125cc motorbike.I will only be travelling in daylight and rest for the night at Rourkela and Bodh Gaya I have the following queries-

    1. Route to be followed- Roads not afftected by Naxalism.

    2. Is it a bad idea given that its Monsoon season? I have a 1 year old Ceat rear tyre and a stock TVS front tyre. I have done 4(four) 120+km rides on it till date and in dry conditions.

    3. Road conditions I should be aware of- Any particular stretch which I must avoid or be careful of.

    Also, one more important factor is that the bike was lying in the garage for more than 9 months.The bike had already done 22000kms till then . I have planned to do a service at the local Honda service center. Apart from brake test, engine oil change and electricals, is there anything else that I should pay attention to for this 700+ km long trip. I do not know anything about bike repairs and do not want to be stuck in the middle of the road. Better safe than sorry

      Brother check all the wires and cords such as throttle wire clutch cable and rest.. Check the rear sprocket and chain and get it changed if it's worn out or damaged. Battery level and charge,as the bike was idle for 9 months or so.

      Before you go on your journey plan the route accordingly. Take rest not frequently but as per your body. Keep hydrated always and carry some snacks such as chocolates or energy bars. Ride safe and enjoy the journey brother.
