Since 2007 she was the one companion which accompanied me every day in all my lows & highs. She stayed with me in all my sorrows & joys. I was harsh with her when in hurry & in sorrow.....i was smooth with her in times of joy. I ride her high in times of high spirit...i grunted on her in times of low. But she never disappointed me. Never excepted anything back; just some care. Except during my two months US visit and 7 months bangalore visit she was with me every day. She served me so much to my satisfaction.
Its my Splendor+ bike which i bought in 2007 and it crunched around 40000Kms since then and is still counting. My bike never disappointed me for my needs. I'm not on it to race. I use it for my general needs, for general commuting & sometimes purposeless rides.
It do gave me some hiccups when it was down due to some crank shaft sound in enginer. Except regular services it is the only major cost i incurred on it after its purchase. As per the mechanic, this problem would not have occured if i have used proper fuel. He also suggested to never use the petrol sold on road side from petty vendors. I though these petty vendors mix some kerosene to make some quick bucks. But not so. he said , "these vendors mix some thing called thinner which is generally used for carpentary work. The reason is, thinner costs some Rs.25 per liter where as kerosene costs around Rs.40. So thinner is more profittable compared to kerosene. Thinner has no colour and in some weather conditions block the enginer oil passage to the engine and thus the engine problem occurs". So, friends avoid road side fuel and save your vehicles.
Hmmm what else. There is one point that i get to mind.
Sometime back in 2008 i lived with some friends at Lakadikapul. One of my friend Rupesh, owned a Pulsar 150CC(as far as i remember). We used to go out often for lunch...dinner..movies. But the way would always be full of traffic and is always crowded with vehicles. So, generally when two friends start on bike they obviously get into a sort of lets-see-who-reaches-first type of thing. This happens undeclared and go unnoticed. The same thing used to happen between us as well. Some times i used to reach first and some times him. I remember him commenting "You are great yaar. You beat Pulsar with your splendor". I used to say, "Its nothing great. I just know my bike better and know when & how it behaves".
Sometimes i feel like to withheld this bike for ever. But again, nothing is permanent. In the recent past i planned to sell off this bike to get a new bike. But due to some personal reasons i plan to keep this bike for another 1 year or so. Lets see howz things go.
