Bejaj.... you gotta rename it.... 'Blackbird' (SR-71...if you're going to exaggerate, do it with style! Naaah...just kidding, mate). The speedometers are massed produced without much connection to reality anyway. LOL.

The phrase on the race tracks is "ride it like you stole it"...

Please do that!  I'd hate for anyone to have to endure what I did... and still do.  The accident itself was bad enough, and the three years in hospital to piece me back together was no joke, either.  No, it's equally as much (if not more than) the 35 + years of pain and suffering with arthritic joints... even more brittle bones that now are either too long or too short, thus causing lower back and neck issues.  Yup, my spine is all out of kilter because I have one leg shorter than the other and my pelvis (broken in several places) is lopsided... meaning I now walk with a pronounced limp which causes undue stresses on my spinal column.

So yes, please ride with all due care and attention..  More importantly!  DO NOT SPEED!!!  I was only doing 35 - 40mph when all my injuries occurred (136 fractures)... you don't need to know the devastation of impacting with a solid object at that speed, let alone any faster.

And for the winning edge... you ride like the wind cos it's a cop bike you stole.

A former acquiantance stole a cop bike once, back when Qld cops had the K-1 Honda 750's... he reckoned it was faster (take off and top end) than his Kwaka 750 3-pot two-stroke, and his worked 900 Kwaka 4-pot 4-stroke... both of which, were considered the fastest production 2 and 4-strokes on the road... back in the day, that is.   Obviously, the cop bike was souped to the max (given the windshields, panniers and all that other cop paraphenalia) to easily outdo the top/fastest road bikes of the day.

Oh, and another tip, Amit, besides the obvious - don't drink AND ride - DON't try to outrun the cops.... one way or the other, they will always catch you.

Another sobering adage about biking....

There are old riders....

...and there are bold riders.....

...but there are few old - bold riders.

It happened only on the day I was treating my friends after the office hours with some beer at a nearby bar, for the new bike !!

To be very honest even I got drunk and it was indeed tough parking the bike properly on its main stand, but luckily I have a big enough garage to park on its side stand with my dad's car stuffed in too at the same place !!

Nice words Jafo !!

There's another adage about those too slow to take advantage of something good special.... a case of 'the quick and the dead'.

Applies to bike riders., too.. 'quick and the dead.'

Just don't let it happen again... the consequences of drink driving/riding are too costly... and I don't mean a potential fine/losing your license.  Far, far wosre can happen.... avoid it by separating the two.  Do one or the other... NOT both!

With age comes wisdom (and the fear of additional pain).

The older you get, the more the sphinter factor kicks in...it's hard to be bold while trying to get your shorts out of your butt. 

More advice....

Look up what de-gloving means.....

And always wear leathers.

Even more advice...

Never carry an inexperienced pillion passenger... they cause accidents by not knowing how to lean/be as one with the bike.

On another note, I once had a pillion whose pants had a wet patch in the crotch (don't ask how come, it's not an explanation I feel bears repeating), and it was too far for him too walk home, so I made him sit facing backwards 'til we got there.

The things we do when we're young, eh!

There is a name for people who ride drunk..........Organ Donors.

I do wear leathers, but after winter i,e March it's gonna be extremely hot again.

Hehe.......mostly I have my agents as pillion passengers and most of them being ladies, have gained quite a lot experience as pillion passengers.....either with their boyfriends or husbands

Do these husbands and boyfriends know that you've been doing the 'pillion' with these 'experienced' ladies?

I work in a life insurance company [Max New York Life] as an Agency Associate and these ladies are working under me in my team of agent advisors.....so they all were recruited by me with the consent of their families for the profession and they can't go on business visits without me....mostly I have to accompany them untill I feel they become skilled enough to do the sales on their own, so they are as 'pillion' passengers with me on these visits !!
