India anyone?

Hey everyone. I'm currently in Nepal and will be heading down to India in three weeks to buy a motorcycle and travel around India for a few months, starting point will be Delhi. I'm looking for one or more people to join me. I have not set plans yet, the plans will be made together with whoever joins me.

I would check it out on this site to confirm it but I think it is easier for a foreigner to buy a bike in Nepal.

The exchange rate is good in Nepal but you are spoiled for choice in Delhi
There are many tourists in Delhi your best bet is to go to the main bike seller streets (something Ghanj.... look it up in the guides).
A lot of guys/gals doing the same thing wandering around looking for bargains.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
