“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans”, John Lennon had said that. The story of how I became an owner of the Duke 390 could be summed up in that one line. It had been 3 years since I had bought my first bike the Yamaha R15. Things had changed. I wasn’t a college student any longer.
I had become an architect. I had responsibilities. I wasn’t looking to buy another bike. Practically I was disappointed with the Indian market.The 390 started appearing in my Dreams! It was always beside a lake…
A couple of days passed. The bike was all over my mind. I don’t have any excess love for fairings. It’s only that clip on handle bars and that front leaning stance is something that I had gotten used to.
