Buddy Akshay,
That was an impressive set of pics. I am more impressed with the ZMA ( first lot of pics ) with its whole front tire inside water. Did it make it across, did not water enter into silencer?. I am AWE-ed anyway!. cheers:

Amazing stuff, especially awed by the pics on snow covered mountain passes. Kudos.

Hey akshay, that's some great stuff you doing on your motorbikes. I am sure you must be having lots of fun & excitement doing that.

It will be good if you wrote in detail on what mods you have done to bikes, what all is required if more people want to do this stuff on their 2 wheels.

Keep going buddy.

Cheers,

Looking at these pics, I think there is a decent market for a real off roading dirt bike. Like any one of these.
