Naughty Dilip Bam. I have been good friends with him and did my Kashmir to Kanyakumari biking sojourn in his vigilance. Nice chap. Has just one ear fin. The other was lost in a bike accident. We did quite a lot of bike rides around Pune. One being on gearless scooters in Verandah ghat in pouring rain and the Karizma to give us company. DOESN'T use any modern measurement methods for testing figures just a stop watch for acceleration times. He uses a 1 liter bottle of petrol (like a saline bottle) hanging around his neck to do fuel efficiency tests. And he is pretty fast on bikes. I remember running a souped up Shaolin and a autocross prepared RX100 against him on the Karizma first ride.
Thats Dilip Bam for you.
Btw, he's crossed the Sahara desert on a Ki-Ho (Kinetic Honda). Got kidnapped somewhere and was made to beg outside some god forsaken place in the middle of a desert. Anyone from Pune wants to go drinking? You'll have more tales to hear.
