  • Newbie Introduced !!

    Hello everybody
    This is Dev from Jharkhand. Metallurgical engineer and a businessman. I have stayed in state of Maharashtra for about 8 yrs for studies and job at Nagpur and Pune respectively. And then I joined the business.
    Was lucky to travel a lot for business purpose in India and abroad. The one place I stayed for 3 yrs was Rajasthan though life’s hard over there but its too colorful and I personally enjoyed the stay.
    I own two 2-wheelers KB 125 1996-Launch model and Royal Enfield Machismo A-350 along with long lost love Amby 1996, Maruti swift 2006 Ford Fusion+ Diesel 2008 and Mahindra Bolero SLX 2010.
    Of lately I have been deciding to restore/rebuild my KB125 which i bought when i was in college and i still love it, its running ok till now, but the mechanics and spares over here in Jharkhand are virtually non existent. And DIY is certainly not my cup of tea as it will take ages for me to complete the job. (even then I doubt it will ever be finished)
    I was wondering if I can send my bike to someone who could take care of the bike. Though going through the detailed rebuilding of the some thread has taught me quite a few lessons and I am glad I came across them.
    Now again the rebuilding part: suggestions are more than welcome of where the job can be done.
    Delhi can be a place where I can manage and monitor the progress of job if I opt for it as I do have connections there and even I can stay for few days over there for the project.
    Kolkata is just 550 kms from my place but I’m not too sure if I have ever seen the bike KB during my various visits.
    Your kind suggestion will be highly appreciated.
    Cheers
    Dev

            Welcome to Xbhp
            Try and find out if parts from other similar Bikes can be used if you don't get the original ones and instead of restoring to original, you can use your Creativity and make it a new and different Bike altogether

              Thanks princesirohi, Lonely Rider, satheez_7 and Prakritij.
              Though I must admit i joined the forum just to take care of my bike KB125, but going through the related threads started here are so informative, and i am enjoying going through them and learning.
              But guys please help me with my bike as well.
              @Prakritij i was wondering if this bike could be converted to something new? But then matching the motor with gearbox will be real pain. Though suggestions are most welcome.
