rushabht said:Congrats for buying the new bike nikhil. Sadly wont be coming for the te meet on da 6th, coz im heading to GOA.
Anyway...IMHO u should have more of a sanjay dutt kind of a personality to ride these kind of bikes, then maybe some hot chick might ask you for a lift :bleh:
Just Kidding Bro.
and what exactly is "sanjay dutt kind of a personality" please let us know ....:ashamed: :huh:

Tracerbullet did have a helmet on when he was on his bike yest when i met him.
And, he did somehow look good on the bike...a bit underweight for it But looked good
hyeah:
Besides, when on a bike like that, who cares what others think on how u look on it??
I think your personal opinion on this regard is whats more important

I do wear a helmet and not just because of the law. Riding in Mumbai for a good hour can leave you with a black face. Not to mention how often dust gets in your eye.
Yep Deejay I'll definitely get the bike for the meet. And of course you can ride it - but you'll have to start it first! haha just kidding.

Ahem......
here is my statement about this, flame me if you want....
this comes from over two years of riding an enfield 500 bullet.
I have demoed this to quite a few of my firends and will happily demo this to any one who can come to bangalore. anything to dispel this myth that starting a bullet is difficult. and this is the 500 not the 350!!!
Standard starting : 1/2 kick on warm engine, 1 kick cold engine.

Obviously, that's what I was getting at. You have to know how! Besides, my bike has the new AVL engine.
@Anish: There's no electric start, my bike's a Machismo.

The new AVL engine is a little harder to start, probably becuase idon't know how!!
Machismo is a damn nice bike and the five speed gearbox is really good.
People who have only ridden plastic bikes like most of my friends here, will never know what it is to ride a real bike, the way they used to make them from more than 50 years back.

^^How much was the rent! Yeah the Electra's more of a thumper than the Machismo. You don't own a bike then?
nope. dont even have a lisence!:ashamed: My parents feel bikes are a strict no-no. Ended up renting it through a friend.
THe rental is 300 bucks for 24 hours and theres a 1000 buck security deposit. YOu need 2 references (parents if youre still in coll, otherwise earning members in society) he can call up and confirm your address and road sense. YOu also have to cover the petrol yourself.
Considering the condition of the bike, it was a bargain!

Hi deejay, have u ever seen this show on discovery travel and living called american chopper, its an amazing show. Dont know how many ppl from te watch it though, here is some description of the show
These bikes are driven by guys having a badboy kind of attitude
, and if youve seen sanjay dutt on his musafir bike....he seems to have the perfect build and attitude that one should have to ride these bikes. So for people like me any light bike would do fine, but royal enfield would not really suit a person like me.Have a look at these images !

^^One of these is a cartoon, while the other is a movie advertisement. Both cartoons and ads exaggerate reality. So you can't really use any of these as a reference.
I don't need to live up to any preconceived notions on how badass bikers ought to look like. I'm happy with my bike and that's it really. Besides, to be frank, Sanjay Dutt's wearing the wrong shades for a big bike. Nothing matches a muscle bike better than a pair of aviators
