The Official Trivandrum Offline meet(G2G) thread

[aarunn]

bro... we need atleast 3hrs to reach somewhere there when taking the MC road... and we need to catch up with the others latest by 6AM. That is, if we need to reach back before midnight same day... its a total of 650+ km, and in hilly areas, not roads like our NH7... believe me, we need the extra time, if you want to be reasonably alive on monday...

@Swas... you see, how difficult it is to get these lazy bones going... hehe (just kidding guys)

Present saar !!!!!! im IN for this ride Time doesnt matter for me

[lijok]

the damned SVC guys.. they have put in the rear wheel such that it almost touches the swing arm on one side and 2inch gap on the other side... and they have not even put in a lock nut on both sides!!! If possible tomm am gonna go there and blast them... meanwhile, any idea why the alignment is so wrong? last time I saw this, and tried to fix on my own, the nut used to adjust it will always be loose on one side... so I had no option other than to leave it like that... I though changing the sprocket will fix it... doesnt seems so... could be anything to do with the hub? I dont think it can be something with the swingarm itself.. or can it be? ...............

What the kcuf is the svc guy thinking? It can lead u to a serious mishap man.That shouldnt be a problem with hub or sprocket. Try loosening the axle nut below silencer and tighten that properly on both sides of the wheel.

BTW i am very much doubtful about my presence for the independence day ride.....problems at home......will try my best....time is not at all a problem, in fact if you people havent tried out riding at early morning times, this is a chance you will not regret, there is nothing like that. Time doesnt matter for me, early morning or not, the night before will be sleepless for me.

@arjun
Awesome lid man, i loved it, looks just like the sparx rebel. From which shop did you buy that from, you've got great bargaining skills(1000 bucks is no little ). So what about your AGV ? No plans for a new jacket? Its already over time to change that red-blue-yellow- (what more colours to add in that?)jacket ..

@saurabh,
Glad to have another guy who got LEH'ed in the trivandrum gang(in fact the first), hearty congrats from me. Have seen the pics in facebook, just Mindblowing .Have added you too. Have lots to chat, but we can do that in our next meet up, hope to see you in our next g2g.

@iamarj
nice lid there!...by any chance is there a Bruce Lee version of it like the SparX?

@Lijo
man...kill those guys!btw is it safe to ride it all the way to the SVC?how far is the SVC?

[lijok]

@Varun - something is wrong bro... adjustments do not work, it either makes the chain very tight/loose, or else the adjustment nut on one side will be loose.

@Ranjith... man I am riding it as it is now... no other go... today only I saw it, when I was cleaning some tar from the undersides.. the car is gone for a couple of days... so I've to commute by bike itself... actually, there is no difference while riding, which doesn't mean its OK... hmmm

[ssh]

@Saurabh... bro, please attend our next G2G.. you can watch this thread for updates... when do you get your bike? Looking forward to meeting up with you...

guys..panic panic panic...i booked my bike as parcel from Jammu on 30th(Friday) and left for delhi that night. The bike was expected to board Himsagar exp from there on 2nd night and reach here today(5th). I went to recieve my love..but oh no...the villains didnt load my love on the train.

I think my bike was about to set some kind of record of longest distance travelled on train but yaar only if it comes here man. I have nobody to contact in Jammu and ask to get the bike loaded on the next train. I cant be sure whether those lazy bums will load my bike on the next train.
The lady at the parcel office told me they will probably load it on next train. When i asked what if they forget or neglect or something..she said they will send it definitely, when is the only question..dicey statement.

@Lijok..even if it comes on the next train i.e. by 12th it will need repairs..and i dont wanna do the independence day ride on a damaged bike. Though i may come at the starting point and meet you guys.

Anybody has any idea how much i will have to wait for fibre spare parts for Dazzler here?

Long time, but keeping myself busy reading your posts!

Its nice to see a leh rider join our group. and I can see Lijo on top of things, getting G2Gs arranged! Hats off to the spirit guyz!

I am doing good in Mysore. The same for my bike except for it craving for new spares (clutch plates, etc). Found a Castrol Bike Zone service Center here in Mysore, so will be trying them out soon.

Happy News is that the start of August saw me on a shopping spee in Bangalore. I got myself a new LS2 helmet and Cramster Bionic knee Guards. Shelled out Rs 3500 (supposedly Rs 4500) on the helmet and Rs 1500 on the knee guards. Both fit comfortably well and I'm happy.

Also went go-karting at eZone, Marthahalli, Bangalore. My God! It was a one of a kind experience and I'm completely addicted to it!

Check out the pics I will be in TVM for the I-day weekend. But sadly not for the I-Day ride. Anyways, I'll try to see you all if you are meeting up on the previous day.

Ride safe! Enjoy!

Long time no see saar. How are you doing in Mysore ? Good to see you picked up with LS2 cartoon, nice choice. Btw did you upload all those pics from Yercaud ?

AFAIK there isnt anything like that. The Sparx Master helmet is uber cool. Attention grabber for sure especially in yellow.

Lijo I support what Ranjith says. Knock off 5 mechs & you will be granted Killing Spree status.

Welcome to LS2 family bro. Do you feel any extra weight on that helmet? some says LS2 feels a little heavy!!!

@Akil: Apprieciated your kindness to an innocent Animal No need to learn an Animal language instead,learn human communitcation(without hurt)LOl. Take it into the right sense.
