  • ^thanks for the consolation Vijay. Another day has passed and there seems to be no luck. The problem is that i have applied for Insurance claim and so the bike cannot be taken out without replacing all defective parts, else i will have to bear the cost of alloys. Definitely the bent alloys can do the trip. But who knew this would lead to such a mess. It was 18th Oct when i gave for service. Lol I am in a trap now If it is not available even after tomorrow, then i have to lend bike from someone else, which is highly risky since i wont know its running condition.

      Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
      The girl said, 'NO!'


      And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


      THE END

          • Seems the rain has ceased... hope it stays this way, cloudy without rain for the next couple of days
            I also wanted to buy a raincoat... have one, but a bit torn at the back... let me see today.

            BTW, guess most 2-strokers will be at NSR Tuners for final check ups?
