India: Delhi through Kashmir on a Royal piece of.... - Page 24

BOOGIEMAN · 03-26-2012, 09:07 AM

GREAT REPORT AND PICTURES.

mav1234 · 03-26-2012, 10:44 AM

Liked the Whole Log and Pictures.

There are 'N' Number of Roads in India which are just heaven to drive ( leave the chaotic Town or City Roads )

I would have not advised at any day taking a Royal Enfield for this Tour. It gives Problem time and again, and on a whole, upsets the Touring Spree.

Anyways, Hope you enjoyed everything here.

Would love to provide the Hospitality when you visit next.

Great report! Thanks for sharing and all the pictures. It reminds me A LOT of my trip through Vietnam on a Honda (not really) Bonus 125... Had that thing repaired every single freakin day of the ride. Even had to do a complete rebuild in Dalat

Luckily I met several Bonus masters along the way. In Vietnam they didn't drink as much

Stumbled upon this being an arm chair adventure dreaming of my next great adventure.

Thanks for sharing!! It made me go back through my photos last night and remember my time in that far away land.
Great thread about India! I experienced many of the same highs and lows on my trip to India spent time in Rajastan and Jammu (jammu was for an indian wedding).

I know my wife and I had 2 days during our trip we holed up in our hotel because of the outside world was just so stange and demanding that it took a toll on our nerves. The tourist area's are full of people like those at smart motors from our experience and once we got away from the main attractions and tried to fit in more with the local customs it made our trip better - example taking rickshaw vs. a/c cabs..

I wrote up a review on expoportal awhile back but it is like many other you read on the country.

again thanks for sharing!

Saw the reference on "First Steppe Mongolia" and had to check it out! Another wild ride with the crew from Utah!

Same here. You guys are hardcore! Awesome report and photos. It is hard to get the feeling across how out of one's element a body can feel in a place like that. The story and photos from behind a computer screen are great, but coupled with that 'out there' component, it is truly a great adventure.

Great stuff, and I'll be reading your other RRs fo sho.

Excellent RR but sorry about getting a pos pair of bikes unscrupulous people
in Delhi very famous for that kind of swindling also the bullet is known by the local's
as a very high maintenance bike breaks down every other day it was a little easier for
you guys with wrenching skills .......Delhi, esp Mumbai, Chennai etc beware of scamster's,
pickpockets and various other scoundrels

We're going there this year. Would you mind disclosing the contact data of the person you mentioned? Or: does anyone here have good experiences with a Delhi shop (which?)?

Let me guess what you ate

- any combination of Dal Makhni (tasty dark brown lental), Potatoes & Cauliflower vegitable (in a slight yellow colour), Cheese with green peas, Cheese with Spinach, and yogurt with chappaties.

Since I am hungry now, my mouth is watering

Montauk · 01-18-2013, 11:27 PM

Finished the entire ride report in two days. Awesome. Loved every bit. It was like I was stuck to it and gasping for more action.

Thank you taking the time and sharing your experience with all of us.
