Well I m from Mumbai, I work for an automotive ancilliary for business development, Well I was fan of Bullet since childhood. But feelings were not much stronger. Much stronger means I did not have any plans of owning one. Then when I came to Mumbai, one of my frnd Kumar, he was a hardcore fan of Bullets. Poor guy was unable to afford one, but he was determined, actually he had to go to australia within some 6 mnths time. So he finaly decided "its now or never". He bought himself a ''''02 Machismo 350, so that he could ride for the remaining 6 months.
Now since he had the Bull, I tried to ride it reluctantly (thx to the right foot shift). Had to practice it for couple of days. Then as expected, I just fell in love vth the Bull. Used to ride vth Kumar often we both fighting for the ride. Then he did go to australia. Actually I was inline to inherit the bike but another frnd of mine also fell for the bike nd took it away frm me.
But I always had the dream of owning one, but had think a lot since Bulls are costlier. I was always against for buying a second hand bikes, so I almost took 2 years to decide. This new year (''''09) I made a resolution that i would buy a Bull, But surprisingly got good offer for an Electra 5S ''''06 model. So I finally became the proud owner of a BULL. that to in 5 days of making the resolution.
From then I go for rides to Pune almost every weekend, Have already completed 3000 kms in a month and half.
Will come with my trip stories soon, wishing you all the Bulletiers a nice time,
Happy Thumping
I have found out that the Bull riders are the most sensible and responsible riders. So always please take care and ensure this remains forever.
Thx
