auto expo 08

India is starting to get important, the auto expo 08 Delhi is proof.
Everyone from the mystical Bentley to the minuscule Tata nano is starting to feel the importance of the indian market but hey where're all the bikes gone?

You have the Bentleys that cost about 3 crores but the best of the superbikes hardly cost more than 15 lakhs .The ANSWER: just look at one of the indian roads ,fancy riding a BUSA here just make sure youve got paramedics following you ,but that however has not deterred the Japaneese CEOs from launching the big boys , except the CBR ,the BUSA the R1 and the Streetfighter are already here and Yamaha did something that was just a logical continuation ,they scaled down the R1 and created the R15 the 150 cc wonder that would be on indian roads by third quarter 08.

From oil cooled fuel injected engine to front and rear discs to mono suspension combined with the monster styling of the R1 the Bajaj guys are already feeling the heat .

Added to that Yamaha has launched the international gladiator in India the actual launch which is scheduled to take place by March .
The fun biking concept of its CEO is all set to elevate the concept of biking here from a mode of travel for a family of four to an attitude statement.


Still wanna go after the Pulsars ..........think again

aaaaahhh the second post
first series just got over and it was as though armagedon hell freezing over and the end of the world all happened in a single week
it was dioabolical simply horrible
I had to buy three books { borrowed it to be precise } find the other three from the ruins of my book shelf in a search that would make any archeologist envious and most frustrating of all
study them
the only thing  that made me cheerful was the constant beats of Enya and Voyeguer { god knows how it is pronounced but it is an album by enigma }
guys like me wouldve been dead due to hypertension if Steve jobs hadn't invented the i pod
i love these moments
the calm after the storm . Now the cycle repeats itself all members of the class get back to business
from playing cricket till midnight{ its true we play one pitch cricket under lights {ahem } and
using a white ball   {ahemagain } in Golby's{ my friend } terrace to doing back to back film 
sessions and driving at speeds which starts at the government prescribed limits
its life on the edge and it rocks

T 20 why are they not playing it

being new to the blog i thought i would like to write on the importance of t20 games

Maybe the WC did do it a lot of good but the ICC has decided to restrict T 20 games of all member countries to a maximum of seven a year
                                             Maybe the world should move ahead of the test saga and enter the new world where citius altius and fortius reign
