My Bike with me for past five years

I bought this bike on October 2006 from Southern Auto Center, Nandanam, Chennai. I loved very much the color of the bike which is very rare colour used in bikes. The Bike is 125 CC with self starter, spokes wheel and drum brakes. The pickup, brake, seating posture,  suspension are very good.

In this bike i have traveled till now 40,000 km., I have traveled to my village kanthadu which is 120 km from my house. And also i have travelled to Pondycherry which is 40 Km from my village.

This was very convenient to travel inside the city with my family. The bike has given 55 K.m. mileage when i bought, then it reduced to 45 now.

Two years back the problem with engine arise. There is a manufacturing fault which leads to white smoke from engine, initail stage i'm not bothered. Which cost me Rs 10,000 / - to repair it. Then again this year the problem arise again.

So at last I decided to sell my bike. When i purchase i made some inquires about this bike, every one has given good remark, but  after i bought the bike, then all started telling me that it was failure model.

Now I sold this for Rs. 15000/- I bought it for Rs. 48000 /-. I was very sad to sell this bike. If the bike engine was in good condition i would not sold this bike for next 10 years.

Now I opted Honda's CB Shine same 125 CC, Now the bike cost Rs. 61000/- on road with all fittings.

Will write about new bike next week.

Our Garden

Our house is built on half ground and another half left for garden. In my child wood my father planted many plants and trees. Actually he was very much interested in having a garden, we will feed water to the plants from our well, in those days we don't have motor pump to pump water. After some time we all left to our village. In 2004 I got married to Annapurani, from then she took the responsibility from my father to maintain the garden. She would clean the garden every week, she alone will feed the garden. she and my father planted all the plants are now. It is very beautiful to see in the morning all these flowers. we have two coconut tree which is also maintained by her.
