  • Hello!

    Hi there,

    I'm 28 and used to ride a Pulsar 180 Classic when I was in college during 2004-2009, which was a hand-me-down from my elder brother who purchased it in April/May of 2002, probably the first batch. I had quite a lot of fun on it then, smoking the CBZs and giving the Karizmas a scare.

    Unfortunately, moving away from Hyderabad means that my bike sits in the garage eating dust. The last time I rode it, it brought back the same kind of smiles and glee it gave when I used to ride it during college. However, due to the climate and lack of usage, things seem to be falling apart every time I come home, which happens once in 6 months or so.

    With the new crop of superbikes in India these days like the Dukes and the Ninjas, the Classic seems to have settled down as being true to it's name.

    I've been on xBhp for some days now, and everytime I come round, I spend more time on it than intend to. The travelogues are beautiful, the information is vast and I've learnt things about old and new bikes alike that rivals only real life learning.

    I'm glad to be around and hope to learn much more.

    Cheers!

    If you ride like no tomorrow, there will be none.

      I had the original P150 :-) It was a blast those days.

      Let me know and if we are close we can meet sometime for chai-bun-sutta.

          My friend had a silver 150, again from probably the first batch. Sure, I'll drop a message when a G2G happens and I am around!

          I feel the pain. Sometimes I get a feeling of selling mine, but then logic kicks in and I remind myself that for a paltry sum I'm not going to part ways with something that links me to my younger days!
