    Lone Wolf/Wolf Pack?

    I am both. My preference to be a lone wolf is nearly 60% and 40% as a group. I can only demarcate on time alone. So, if you were to ask where my heart was - I honestly wouldn't have an answer.

    Do your loved ones think your passion for bikes is dangerous?

    Trellum, I am not a girl ( :) ) to start with and I know that this concern is true for all. If you have people in your life who are really concerned about you, then they would be worried. But then it is usually a matter of time before they get used to your new likes and dislikes. So, don't...

    How did your interest in riding bikes start?

    I think it was a combination of my Dad and uncles. The very first vehicle in which I rode was a bike with my Dad. Maybe that is how I got interested. :)

    Is there any point...

    I think it is a matter of preference. Some like to do in a automatic while few others like me hate an automatic. There is no scientific reason for the hatred, other than the fact that I am absolutely comfortable riding a manual. So, that logic applies to the others as well.

    What do you think about this?

    Trellum, Your example of exasperation and surprise is a way of life for people in Asia. Riding a bike with family is a normal occurrence here, though the risks are known. In fact, take a look at this one: http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/01342/25HYMRM09-Proce_25_1342884e.jpg Did...

    Have you altered your bike's appearance to make it look more girly?

    Willstat I think you should go by what you like, especially now that your Husband's the one who suggested it.. Just for the record last week I spotted a pink colored 883 near my place. Whoever thought that the Harleys were for the big dudes.. :)

    Do you ride with a jacket?

    Pinkdrizzly, I have done both. I ride with a jacket and without too. In fact, I wear the jacket if I am taking the bike to work, else it is without the jacket for most part. I honestly, enjoy without the jacket considering the humid condition I have here in my home town.

    What is your favorite color of bike?

    Hello clay, Black is my favorite color. However, I have one bike in black color and another won in blue. Somehow, I have grown to like blue as well. So, to answer you black and blue would be the answer. :) Could not avoid the pun on the "Black and Blue" part.. :)

    Most important feature in a bike?

    Hello Hondazoom, I must admit I am much like you. For me the looks come first and then the make and manufacturer. So, from that perspective Honda is a reliable brand to plonk your money into.

    is the ctx700 really worth 7gs?

    Hey Jonny, The argument can be taken both ways. I mean there are equally performing and costlier bikes out there too, so my take would be to compare performance and other aspects and then make a decision rather than going by the paper stats.

    CTX700 Test Ride

    Daboo, From what I read (which was rather amusing) I must say that the bike is good but for the wet crotch we guys may end up having during the monsoons... :) .... Okay get your point... :)

    Why did you pick the CTX700?

    Trellum, The single most defining thing is the looks according to me and the second best part is the reliability of a Honda product. I have to apologize though, since I do not own a Honda CTX yet, much like yourself.

    CTX700 why does age come into it?

    Hey Jonny, That would not be limited to the age alone. Of course, the elders may have their own preferences but the fact is that even among our own friends of the same age group, there may be quite a bit of diverse choices. I mean, I love the Honda CTX, however one friend of mine wouldn't give...

    A promising year for CTX 700?

    Hey Jonny, I am not sure if the accessories make or break a bike buying decision. It is more to do with the engine, performance and the manufacturer's reliability. I mean how many people will be thinking of the accessories while buying a Harley? So, by the same logic, all these accessories are...

    Is it better to buy a CTX bike used or new?

    Dieselfit, There are some challenges with used ones, which is the way it was used by the previous user. So, it depends on how well he or she had maintained it. In case of a new one there at least is a warranty period for your vehicle. All said and done there is a chance that you end up finding...

    How Durable is the CTX 700?

    Hey MegaZero, That purely depends on your usage. However, Honda engines and vehicles are ones which stand the test of time. In fact most Japanese vehicles are such. So, durability will not be an issue however, your choice of usage will be. It definitely is not a dirt bike. So, be careful.
