the Night White Knight comes Home

         It was the D-Day when White Knight was going to come home. Booked the bike as soon as I moved to Bangalore and there was a waiting period of over 1.5 months. But luckily the HH salesperson called me one fine morning and informed that the bike is ready and I can come and collect the delivery of my vehicle.
        I was very excited as i waited for almost a month. Rushed to the showroom at 4:00 with my friend Kshitij and got the first glimpse of my sparkling white Karizma ZMR covered in dust. The salesman then sent the vehicle for washing, once done the vehicle was then cleaned and a litre of petrol was poured in so that I can manage till the next available refuelling station. The mechanic there started explaining me the details to which i responded that i had already ridden karizma before and he smiled.

      
           Took the keys, the number was to be alloted the next day but i was not willing to wait for one more day. Kshitij took couple of initial pics using his mobile and then i hit the starter. Engine note was much better than the older karizma and a lot deeper too. As i was riding out of the showroom it was like i am walking on the red carpet, everybody was just starring at me. I had to go to office, but the first thing was to get the blessing's for the bike. So went to pick up satya and rushed to Hanuman Temple to get the puja done. Not like pune, the pujari here took his own sweet time and made sure that the complete puja is done.

             I was really happy, offered him Rs.101 along with coconut and some fruits. The best part was he was not even expecting anything and went into the temple after the puja was performed. So dropped my friend Satya at home and headed to office.
           On the way back to office everyone was just staring at the bike. Believe me, it was definately a head turner. There was this bajaj pulsar owner who almost hit an indicab as i passed by. Uploaded the pics to orkut, picasa and also shared them with my friends.
