Thx a lot ALL for raising my CONFIDENCE ! I hope i be back on the circuit soon

Problem is when i read Blueline Buses creating havoc on Delhi road. EVEN today TOI covered another Blueline accident. Man one needs to be very careful; these days there are many more vehicles on road driving fast then ever & more aggressive & less aware of surroundings getting affected by their misadventures. My family is somehow not very convinced & want me to get rid of MT01 by selling it off around 10L :( lets see what time has in store.

One does need to be careful with such a set of wheels under as you know already , dont let the accident discourage you , take a lesson from it , convincing the family here seems to be the toughest part which is something only you can know how to. Would like to see you riding the beast soon !

^ hope you are doing better now....but you still haven't said anything about how it happened. I hope you weren't trying to hit the top speed on the MT.

Nope i dont like to speed as the best part on MT is the sound it purrs our at low speed. It really rocks.

Actually i dont want to word out how it happened as it was really v painful so i leave it better forgotten :o)

Bravo Jonny! Great decision to go for the MT01!

How does the beast sound? Have they silenced her too much?

Hi Gurpratap, Not yet, the spares are yet to be procured. Hope it should be ready in few more weeks time. As for me I am good now but not fit for riding bike yet. Hopefully i start burning rubber with full force in about 4 months from now !

Sounds bad but yeah i want to be fit & then be back.

I was going thru a magazine called JADE... it carried an interview article on Madhawan *south indian film actor* he too was shown riding yamaha MT01. I haven't come across very many MT01 rider in India. I know Rohit roy the guy who runs a security agency in mumbai & also manages to do some acting kind of thing on TV. He is very bad actor.
