Allroad · 8th May 2009, 10:31

Okay saw the thread and now I feel at home and a part of tBHP (as I do not own a car yet here but do own a bike) !!!

1982 Bajaj Chetak (Dad's; 1990 till 1995)
1995 Kawasaki 4S (till 1996)
2003 Kinetic Honda (in Hyderabad)
2008 Bajaj Pulsar 180 (in Bangalore)

Started with Yezdi RoadKing when was 15, however we no longer own it as my father sold it in 1999. Do have a old pic with me on it when I was just 8yrs old.

Then started working & got myself a HH slendour as I badly needed a bike then but could not afford a bigger machine and just this year I finally got myself a 1979 Std Bullet which was in a condition not too happening ; spent some time and money and below is what I finally have

Yezdi - Roadking 250, 1982 Model - From 1997 - 1999
HH - Splendour, 1999 Model - From 1999 till date
RE - STD 350, 1979 Model - From Mar'09 & want to own it till I live

Also would like to mention here, that I use a Hero Octane (since 2006) just to keep myself fit and for short distances on regular basis to make sure I contribute to save some fuel for generations to come.

Mods -

Hope this is allowed (posting a pic of my eco freindly bike in Team BHP)
