i Feel i saved a lot considering the charge some of the modifiers charge for stage one modification which starts from 1.5 so i just spent a bit more than half of it.

I'm thinking of starting a customizing shop as a hobby for those who want it done for bit less than what these other people charge.
have already got a few customers from our riding group itself, however until now haven't taken any decision.

Wow what an execution, and the attention to detail, I specially loved the saddle bags, and seats.
I am sure about one thing, whenever I do buy a Bullet, will send it across to you to do your magic, my sincere appreciation and applaud to the workmen who executed this project.

Thanks for the appreciation Vinod yes a lot of people have worked on this and I'm thankfull to each and everyone of them. It takes one to come up with a thought and it takes many to execute it and all have to work in unison. Mine is a small village so craftmenship is very limited keeping that in mind and seeing the final outcome I am just thrilled.

Please do send your bike in case you get one. I will make sure I will work on it as if it were my own with the same passion.

You have to.. Pls do register. Your bike is really looking good.

 

[incarnation]

Thanks Sethuji and Navnit will send the details to them in that case. i was in a dilemma whether to or not because my work will definitely look good to me i wanted you guys to gimme honest feedback so that i know where i stand. Thanks a Ton.

BTW i have added a rear Antenna to Atom so that our group Flag can be put on it while on rides.

will upload the pic shortly.

Also wanted to know sethuji have you registered for riders mania if yes do let me know as i have already registered.

its going to be fun. if not planned try and plan it out with your Jr. it would be good for both of you. he can ride a bit while you are guiding him also you would get some rest.

and it will definitely increase the strength of the bond you share with your Junior.

 

[incarnation]

As i mentioned earlier that a rear Antenna has been added to ATOM was re-sizing the pic so uploading it now. Now the antenna will also add to the look as well as it would act as a staff when we go on our group rides. hence it was added.





Hope it looks Good.

i doubt ma.. Cos a group is leaving from chennai also (My dealership). I think I have to devote 6 days for this which I really doubt. Let me see. if any possibility, I will join in the last minute..

And am little bit scared of 3000 KM ride in one stretch.

 

[sethumurugan]

Nitin, Small suggestion. Take pics of your bikes in good camera or good mobile camera. I think the quality of the camera spoils the bike's real avatar..

BTW, can i share your pics in my another whatsapp/FB group?

 

[incarnation]

Sethuji will keep your suggestion in mind regarding the camera. Its very true that the true avatar doesn't get highlighted when the camera is bad. Also wanted to know if you come from chennai it's 944 kms one way to goa via blore.. And Sethuji there is a first time for everything let this be your first long ride. It would be worth it for sure.
