I love to drive Bikes in high spped with all safty.

sriram srinivasan said 7 months ago:

This is a nice list. However, I have always felt that riding a motorcycle on Indian roads is to sign a death warrant, esp. on roads where people can pick up speed. You can be as careful as you want, but it is not up to you when you share the road with zero training and maximum testosterone. Would appreciate hearing any tips that allay my fears, or websites that discuss this issue. I love the idea of seeing India at a modest pace and the freedom that a bike gives you.

samuel-cars in india said 7 months ago:

Although i have3 my own car but when the topic comes about the bike i get very excited becuase it is very good adventure but sometimes we get in fault point due to our own mistake when i was travelling from mumbai to shirdi on my bike & with my other bikers (in college days)i was riding in a drastic speed in the valleys of kasara since it was night & i was feeling sleepy i was not noticing anything due to that me & my bike got shucked in the bundle of dry grass over a tractors trolley ,i had a narrow escape so i wanna say keep yourself careful & have some relaxations over a definite intervals of time after riding!
