Sometimes I wonder, what got me into motorcycling. And whenever such a question arises, I ride out and all my questions are answered. There is so much that one must do, and one aspires to do. While we all do what we can, sometimes the weight becomes a bit too much to carry and the shackles become too tight. Sometimes, all you want to do is flee. And that is where motorcycling comes in. In every sense of the word, it sets you free. Quite a rhyme, eh? 

So, after a week filled with hustles, I was looking forward to a weekend to experience the freedom that comes standard with motorcycling. On the day of the ride, I woke up before sunrise, geared up, and rushed to my garage. As soon as I pulled the cover off, there it was, the FZ-X, I could not wait to be out on the roads and live that feeling of just being with myself, my motorcycle, and the endless road. The FZ-X is a unique-looking motorcycle, with the three sleek DRLs crowning the bi-LED projector headlamp, and a large fuel tank. It’s got a striking blend of modern and retro; that is not an easy trick to pull off.

I thumbed the starter, and the Neo-Retro motorcycle came to life with a nice bassy growl, which I also fancy a lot about this motorcycle. Saddling up, the FZ-X felt very comfortable. The bars were also easy to reach, and the tank was chunky enough to hold on to. With all that, it was time to head out, the destination being Aravali hills where I could experience the FZ-X in all its glory. 

Being out on familiar roads while the city still slept was quite a different experience. It felt like the roads usually laden with vehicles had been set free as well. As the miles went by, the smile I had on my face turned into a grin that kept getting wider. One of the prominent reasons for that was the FZ-X itself.
