Re: Hello RDD
My story:
I used to ride my fathers Vespa in my yearly days. When I was 18 I thought of buying a bike for my self. HH CBZ and Suz Fiero were my options. CBZ was good looking but Fiero had good FE and only lacked half BHP and one second behind to 60 kmph. One morning while preparing to go to my college found the Vespa’s clutch cable broken. So I borrowed my cousin’s RX135 (2001 model-4s) to buy the cable. I was blown over by the bike. Sweet ride, perfect throttle response, inspiring handling. Even after buying the cable I did not head home just rode around for sometime. Back home while changing the clutch cable, I decided my bike is going to be an RX. Love at first ride.
Later that year I bought 1988 RX100, which was not in a good shape. Wheels were bad, had clutch problems and lot of other small troubles. I saved on by pocket changes and food money and worked on it bit by bit. She has been with me for a decade. Still gives me the smile.

Thats a 88 RX!!! Looks like one of those parked inside the Escorts Showrooms when they were buyable off the shelf. Kudos for maintaining it the way you have. 
Any RDD goodies on it so far or planning on some?I'm from Palkulangara originally, uncle stays in Indira Nagar. So next time I'm down there and I see a pristine black RX, it might just be you.manmohancq wrote: @CAL 9696 : I live in Peroorkada with my mother, wife and son. Work at CDAC – Vellayambalam.
OT - My uncle works in ER&DC/Keltron/CDAC? whatever it's called these days. Too confused with them changing the names quite too often.
