About Me

I am Gunaseelan Perumal, people call me Guna. I make a living out of programming career in IT industry.

I am a motorcycle enthusiastic. I owned multiple motorcycles with a desire to ride in highway and long distance touring. Without knowledge about bikes, I used commuter and sports bike to tour in highway, but they did not match highway requirement. I tried this and that. Later I gained knowledge about different motorcycles and their purpose made for. Then I bought a touring bike, which is very comfortable, confident inspiring and fatigue free, able to cruise long hours in highway. I tried different bikes, spending money, spending time, spending energy to understand about motorcycles/bikes.

I bought a small, light weight, low powered city car, but drive it mostly in highway. There is a difference between what we need and what we want. Moreover, we have to choose our vehicle based on what is available in the market and what is affordable. The affordable, available do not match with our want. What matches with our want/need is different from what is available, affordable, and popular or highly selling. First we should have clarity on what we need and what we want. Then we have to choose a vehicle which matches with our want/need. This require knowledge and guidance. You need know about vehicle and it's purpose made for. This is where ownership reviews after certain years of usage, helps you a lot.

A rev friendly, light weight, agile, powerful sports bike is good in city roads and streets. But it will not be a best fit in highway or long distance touring. For highway and long distance touring, a heavy weight bike, with surplus torque will match. But it may not be fit in city roads and streets. I bought a sport bike and worried why it was shaky or wobbling in highway. I bought a heavy weight cruiser and worried why it was not easy to ride it in city roads and streets. Lack of awareness about what we want/need and lack of knowledge about what vehicles matches with our want/need is leading to confusion, frustration, waste of money, waste of time, waste of energy.

Cost of maintenance vary from segment to segment - commuter, premium commuter, sports bike, street fighter, cruiser, super bikes differ in their maintenance cost. Don't regret at maintenance expense after owning a vehicle either new or used.

Either new or old, purchasing a motorcycle or vehicle is very easy nowadays as you will get loan sanctioned. But the challenge is awaiting at servicing or maintaining it. Authorised Service Centers or Local mechanics...which bike is easy to get serviced will keep you cool. Maintenance and Servicing, spare parts availability will make lot of difference in ownership experience. You may ready to spend, but no guarantee that, your vehicle will be serviced properly. You have to rely on "belief, faith, reputation, luck" in this section.

You can tour on any bike. This is a popular, but wrong statement. This is a false notion and not adhering with safety. You should tour on proper bike made for touring, not any bike.

So I thought ownership reviews dedicated to spread/share knowledge about bikes, cars, bicycles, automobiles, will help the buyers to understand what they want, and what matches their want.

So, I created this website.

Happy and Safe Riding.
