  • Hello Guys...

    Hello All,

    I'm Satish from Orrisa but currently residing and working as Software engineer in Bangalore. Have been biking since 3 months thanks to Navnish who introduced me to biking and who made me buy my first bike the mighty R15. The whole process of buying the bike was crazy.

    Around August-September :
    Me : I want to buy a mountain bike . Am thinking of buying A Trek / Firefox viper.
    Navnish : Wow cool lets check it out. How much will it cost ?
    Me : Around 15k-22k .
    Navnish : Save some more and get a bike .
    Me : No i always wanted to buy a mountain bike and want it .
    Navnish : Think about it you can come with me for rides on a mountain bike. Even if you buy a basic motorcycle you can at least think about long rides.
    Me: Hmm... Let me think about it .

    Around September-October :

    Me: After a lot of thought i have decided to buy a bike . Which one to buy?
    Navnish : Go for the FZ it will fit in your budget its got style and if any spares required you can always look in my loft and change it .
    Me : Okay lets go book it . So finally we head out to book the FZ ( black color )
    Navnish : Neways you are spending so much . Why dont you buy the Fazer it looks good its got a fairing it will be helpful for long rides .
    Me : Yaar . Dont confuse me . First the cycle now the FZ now fazer .
    Navnish : Think about it ...

    Few days later ...
    Return to the yamaha showroom and canceled the Fz booking and changed it to a black fazer .

    November :
    Yamaha Showroom guy : Sir black fazer will take 2weeks for delivery .
    Me : Okay. Let me talk to my friend. He said he can get it within a day.
    I spoke to Nav about it . He said lets got to the showroom. We go to the showroom the next day.
    Navnish : Yaar neways you are spending so much . Why don't you buy the R15 . Its fast its handling is good and if you need anything you can always change it . And i know what all issues it has we can fix it easily.
    Me: Hmm... Saale . First cycle then FZ then Fazer now R15 WTF. Now what you will tell me buy a car?? . Finally Nav convinced me to buy the R15. And i brought it . My first bike ever thanks to Navnish .

    Current status :
    2500 km Done on the bike. Currently doing short rides to get some experience on the bike. The bike handles like a dream. Its so easy to ride it.Never thought that bikes can be so easy to ride
    Mods : One hid on the high beam ( Thanks Navnish )
    Issues : Service its bad ,bad its bad. Nav fixes most of the stuff for me.

    Looking forward to ride along you guys.

    Cheers,
    Satish
