Woke up at 11 am yesterday and called up Raghu to ask him if Blurr was ready. He replied in the affirmative. Asked him for the estimate, he said that he was not at Auto Service. So called up Venkat. He didn't have the actuals so asked me to call him up after 20 mins. Called him after half an hour. He said that the estimate was around 2k.
Finished my daily routine and left for Banashankari. On the way, got to ride in Manoj's Baleno. Damn good car!! He dropped me off at office, from where I went to the ATM and picked up 2.5k - 2k for the bike and .5k for me. Got into an auto and headed for Banashankari. On my way, picked up a Steelbird SB13 for around 800 bucks.
At Venkat's picked Blurr up. The bill was Rs. 2613. And I luckily had just about enough!! Anyway, tried to start the bike but the battery was dead. Need to get it recharged. Front brakes were very spongy - obvioulsy damaged in the fall. Plus the headlamp glass needs to be replaced.
Looks like further damage expected; to my bank balance that is.
