The 1st time I rode this baby, I couldn't believe that a contraption Made of steel and rubber could give such adrenaline rush. Being an Army Officer with meager salary, I Begged from my father and borrowed from my uncle (Didn't steal) and bought it in 1992 for Rs. 40000/- and have been riding it till now. I shared innumerable happy Moments with it, the best of which is my trip from Chennai to Vijayawada to pick up my wife and the ride thereafter to my home town Hyderabad.
The biggest problem of this bike is constant tuning of CB points. Unless the ignition timing is spot on, you can't really unleash the beast to its full potential. So last year, I modified its ignition to electronic. (CDI). I have been able to eliminate this niggling problem. But frankly speaking this baby needs care and devotion, which I am finding difficult to provide. I have turned 40 this January and have to devote time towards my two kids and office. So Im now planning to hand it over to someone who can take real care of my machine. Just looking for a right guy.
