I know it is too early to discuss with regards to weather during our Point Calimere ride. Is there anyone been to the southern during this season?
Just to get mentally and physically prepared for the ride. Thanks.RX100 1996 | Karizma 2004 | Karizma-R 2011 | RXZ 1999 | RX 135 1998 | RX 100 1993 | CBF150 2005 - 2011

I was updated that it is drizzling & nothing much. But having said that, Rain Gear is a must regardless of any tour.Originally posted by SriramEfunds View Post

Thank you for the update and suggestion. I do have a rain coat, however, need to buy water proof pants. Any suggestions? In terms of make, availability and price?Originally posted by Ananth View Post
Things I already have:
Rain coat
Spare cables
Few wheel spanners
Tyre tube
Things need to buy:
Water proof pant
Spare fuse
spark plug
Riding Jacket*
Knee guard*
Helmet^
Bungee cords
* will need to wait and watch for Bhavishya to confirm.
^ currently possessing Volga standard type full face helmet. Planning to upgrade to good quality helmet. It all depends on what is left in my pocket in due course of time.
Guys let me know if there is anything important that I'm missing from the above preparatory list.RX100 1996 | Karizma 2004 | Karizma-R 2011 | RXZ 1999 | RX 135 1998 | RX 100 1993 | CBF150 2005 - 2011

Sriram,
I am not sure if you would be needing a pair of ear buds which cancel out the swooshing air noise.
But i would need them too dont have them with me.
Anybody here uses ear buds that kinda muffles the sound outside while riding?Comment

I have not tried using ear plugs to cancel the air noise in all my earlier trips. I thought probably used to it.Originally posted by zerotosixty View Post

@ Ananth - I'm not sure how I'll be joining in since I currently don't have a ride. The Ninja may not be back from the shop soon and I'm not used to the Bull yet.
I think maybe it's written in the stars that I have to drive to Point Calimere on 4 wheels.

:
it doesnt cancel out the entire noise. But just that whistling and other distant motor noises. I do agree to vehicles honking behind you would be a bit of bother. But am more used to using RVMS for ppl behind me and I dont heed to unnecessary honking. May will give it a try this time and see how it works out.
Can anyone help in finding a pair of ear buds? that doesnt do any damage to your ear and doesnt cause any kind of pain.?Comment

Do you call it as ear buds? I thought those are ear plugs. I would go to medical shop to find out if it is available.Originally posted by zerotosixty View PostRX100 1996 | Karizma 2004 | Karizma-R 2011 | RXZ 1999 | RX 135 1998 | RX 100 1993 | CBF150 2005 - 2011

I dont think that is a mandatory thing. A proper helmet would do the much needed noise cancellations.Originally posted by zerotosixty View Post
Yes, Thats why i hardly use ear phones. I use it when i feel so boring to ride on the Golden Quadrilateral.Originally posted by Sunnyside_up!

Firstly.. take rest, If you are fine by 29th then ride / Drive.
Secondly, When you feel OK try riding the C500. If you feel uncomfortable, then swap onto your Scorpio. It would be useful in many ways for us

@zerotosixty : The sony In ear does a better job often, but I skip them while riding. As sunny said, I'd like to be on full alert while riding. Besides, some Cagers dont bother to honk or let you know that they are there. You never know when these ppl can pop into and outta your blind spot.
Yet another reason is that the Wind noise keeps me awake
Sri personally knows what happens if i have a silent environment around me
