and the wait start

so finally thought i should start a blog, been thinkging of putting down my rides (on varoius bikes) for a really long time figuers i should give back a littel as i have used may a blog to plan my trip.
never got over my ass.
so finally achived a milestone in my life and took the decision to realize my dream(as honda puts it the power of dreams)
many years of stinging and saving for the one day when law of the land will aligne to the corporates of teh globe and the brand pushers to make a favorable point in time when india too shall rise to bring in the ridiculas and the unimaginable. The superbike..
2008 saw the transformation with Yamaha R1 getting a homogleation done(localizing or adpting to the local law) with a saree gurd was the first in late 07, the gov followed suite with permiting ONLY bikes above 800cc so all those who thinks indian road an not suitable for powerful bikes think again because Indian government does think so.
thus started the influx of flagship models by Ducati, Suzuki and finall on 2nd march 09 the Honda.

Friday they get he payment promised delviery on sunday, then it became tuesday the ednesday evening finally on Thurday afternoon i got it.
    thank god as tommor is closed. Although the guy at the showroom said this was the last cbr 1000rr to de delivery from the first lot the next lot might take 2-3 months . My guess they are bulshitting or the plan to now launch the 2010 model with improved power.
