By grace of Allah Pak and special blessings, I toured major portion of North (Gilgit & Skardu) solo on bike. Started my trip on the very 1st day of Ramazan i.e 14 April till 24 April. I travelled almost 2656 kms in 11 days. My touring machine was Keeway Superlight with engine capacity of 200 cc. Before starting my tour, I was not very much satisfied with performance of the bike. But with unfolding my adventurous journey the machine kept on satisfying me with it’s performance. The machine consumed about 88 litres of Petrol and gave KMPL of 30.12.
Keeping in view the running of machine, the machine was maintained, cleaned and engine oil was changed 3 times. During the course of adventure, the machine went through rugged and stony tracks for hours, ascended & descended steep slopes with guaranteed performance. Not even once the machine showed signs of dissatisfaction or disappointment. After successful completion of my trip,now I am fully confident and prepared for any intentional trip.
