Motorcycle touring: Manual to Ride in Himalayas

rahul1000 · Apr 6th, 2005, 08:24

Thanks for the advice, the most important above all the list is a biking jackets+biking pants + biking glooves, all these have to be paded and a good one. The best one I find is JoeRocket (very expensive) but they can really save ur skin.

I COULDNT FIND WWW.camster.biz.... do u have the tel no. of the guy who make nice tank bags

bora · Apr 6th, 2005, 22:48

HTH

Hey thanx, I spoke to the guy in Banglore but he has no retailer in Delhi. So its difficult to ascertain the quality on web.

bora · Apr 7th, 2005, 01:08

Dude,

I have a pair of cramsters, and I'm satisfied with the price and quality.

hello MadNomad, thats sums up pretty well, i have been tad lazy to list all stuff. But avoid using IFTAX or any similar boosters they sell, even the Govt owned Companies, it contains Toluene (yeah same stuff as in tri-nitro-toluene) will bugger up your oil seals and rubber parts sooner then you know, and to get a delayed compression with higher octain on a 4 stroke dosent trade off for any performence boost.

Hey dude

I need to see them the tank bag cause i dont believe that zips are good enough to restrict the water, i am a tough rider, like 30 days on bike-no lodges etc. Bike-tent-road

Hippie at Heart · May 5th, 2005, 14:37

Just bouncing it back up. So who all are planning or have finalized the plans to ride up the hills once heat become too intense in north and where to?

sushmit ghosh · May 5th, 2005, 15:11

true....any plans on?

and hey - any of you out there who get away on weekends - like sat-sun kind of a trip...or maybe fri night and back sun night? would love to join you....bitchin job keeps me occupied the rest of the 5 days!

keep the posts interesting and rolling

rahul1000 · May 6th, 2005, 08:15

No plans immediately

Hippie at Heart · May 6th, 2005, 12:16

No way one can make it to hills and back with 2 days at disposal. I dont have a bike now a days beside erratic office hours and virtually no leave avilable, looks like many are stuck as I am

sushmit ghosh · May 6th, 2005, 16:17

there you go! hez hitting the hills for 3 days!
quite doable...but i was esentially referring to getting away from delhi for 2 days....not necessarily the hills....but maybe nearabouts....the punjab countryside (wipe the smirks off coz it actually is quite pretty!) or something similar.
say what?

Lovemax · May 6th, 2005, 19:53

@ hippie : Bro, would be doing a long 21 days trip hopefully if plans fall in place and money funds allow me to complete my north indian adventure circuit. It would probably include the almost all of action fulled terrains covered by a two wheeler.

Would keep you informed about how i progress in days to come.
