  • @g2gbabas - dhaba g2g kab hain ?

    Comment


    • Gotya G2Gbaba has taken Sanyas since the arrival of Stryker.
      Advice is a form of nostalgia.
      Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

        • Speedo issue solved at huge expense.

          Hi guys,

          I had written about my speedo issue.

          A rat had chewed the cable right at the surface of the sensor so there was no possibility of an insulation tape jugaad and the sensor had to be replaced.

          Very costly part -it cost me Rs 2950. And this for a part made in India. Sad.

          Punjab Honda, Rajkot excused me the labour charges as I had already taken a big hit for no fault of mine. @#$%&* rat...

          The speedo is okay again, thank God.

            Are you sure?

            @ICEMANG - EEkks, So a rat did a damage of 3k to your steed. A good lesson though, iam so sure you must be hunting that rat with your Service Gun...Disla ki marla!!!

            Any precautions for next time?? Rat trap or some chewy stuff that can avoid such damages.

              HAHAHAHA...I have a similar story to tell.

              A rat ate some part of the ECU connector on my R15 when it was a few months old. Thankfully the rat found the first aid kit under the seat to be more delicious and ate most of the bandages and ointments. The damage to the ECU cable was limited to an open insulation which cause the bike to flutter at idle.

              I also found a rat resting on the fuel pump of my Indica once. The common factor in both the cases was that it had rained pretty heavily and both the times, my vehicles had been on a long trip before the rats decided to call them home.

              Seems like rats hate the dropping temperature when it rains and try to find warmer places ergo, end up under seats and bonnets of vehicles that have just been parked.

                May I suggest coating various wires in your bike with Rat Poison?
                That way you can have revenge.

                        The same thing happened to my Dzire too! They dined on some insulation and must have not relished Maruti's material cause they crapped in the engine bay and did not return LOL.

                              I had visited the fort in monsoon a few years back. We went on via Saswad on bikes. As far as I know you can take your bike all the way up as long as the roads are there. When we had gone a part of the road was washed away due to rain. This was on the road towards the fort. There was a huge cement pipe under the road which served as a part of the road.
                              Since there hasn't been much rain till now the roads should be fine. A trek route is also available.

                              Very True- "Motorcycling is not, of itself, inherently dangerous. It is, however, extremely unforgiving of inattention, ignorance, incompetence, or stupidity."

                              I like- "Bikes are not supposed to be a rational decision. If you can park it and walk away without looking back to admire it, you got the wrong one."

                                So what about third week of Aug "Independence day" long weekend?

                                Pune - Coorg - Ooty - Munnar - Dhudhsagar - Pune.

                                Independence day is on Wednesday. I am game for this ride if we start on Thursday/ Friday morning (16 or 17th Aug) and be back by Sunday/ Monday (19 or 20th Aug)

                                Want to visit the ultimate riding wonder this monsoon.
