Hi everyone, my name is Debdeep. Im from Kolkata, West Bengal. Im doing my masters currently and i bought my second motorcycle just 3 weeks back.
Ever since i was 14 years old, i wanted a motorcycle. I bought my first bike in 2012, with my own savings in 2012. It was a 2004 cbz star. I had to sell her off after about 8 mon ths, cause i had finally saved up enough for a second hand avenger. I give tuitions by the way, that is my only source of income. I went on so many trips and midnight rides on that beast. nobody could tell she was 8 years and 60000 kilometres old by the sound and reliability of the engine. only once i was left in a difficult situation when the screws which attatch the exhaust pipe to the engine fell off for some reason on a trip to Bishnupur. She was a darling, needed the most minimum of maintenance, started with one kick and rode like a real star.
Just when i was about to buy the, my cousin brother had an accident. He was the one who taught me how to ride a motorcycle, not a day goes by where i dont miss him. Wherever he is, i hope he is at peace.
I just couldnt buy the bike then, i hope some of my fellow riders will understand why.
But three weeks back i finally got the courage agin to buy a bike, i talked with my parents and made them understand and they did understand. I was so impressed with the old Star, I finalised on buying a CBZ yet again.
So now i ride a 2008 CBZ XTREME with 48432 kilometres on the odo, of which 327 kilometres are mine.
I like to go on aimless rides around the city and short trips too.
My parents never gave me money for fuel and never will also, thats the only reason i havent been on a long tour. Once i get a job, i will, I promise i will go and roam the country on my bike.
thanks all for reading along. hope to talk to all of you soon.
P.S.-by the way, did i say i am a metalhead..now i did...i love doom metal...and can also play the guitar a lil bit.
