    Such a balanced one this. "Make your ego so big that nothing else matters" But on this one I am more with Kartikeya, and i do feel Shumi is probably missing out on a few things. Reminded of the old addage "When you want to gofast go alone, but when you want to go long go with company". Dream big for sure, but not to prove something to anyone else in life, but to ensure you are creating memories. My dream, drive the Porsche GT3 RS at the Nürburgring and own a Ferrari 458 to drive through the Italian country-side. Putting it out there so the universe conspires to bring it to fruition. Thanks again guys

    Long before the FIRE movement gained traction, I dreamed of retiring early. But over time, I realized that life loses its charm if there's nothing worth living for. Now, I want to keep doing what I love and excel at it. My priorities are clear: happiness, health, and wealth, in that very order.
    As I embrace my mid-30s, I've discovered a newfound passion for riding and driving, which now brings me happiness. Whether I'll tour the world remains uncertain, but I find immense joy in the simple pleasures of commuting to the office or taking hour-long drives with my wife and daughter around the city. With each ride and new discovery, the dream of touring the world feels increasingly within reach.

      Good to know there are people in their late 20's early 30's who have given FIRE some serious consideration.
      What it did for me was introduce some serious discipline, which in turn translated into discipline in practically all areas of my life.
      Life didn't loose any charm, on the contrary it made me realise how incompetent most of us are in almost all areas of life other than getting and holding on to a job and the necessary skill sets to do that.
      One starts questioning the cost, time and efforts needed to develop other skills.....and that gave me multiple targets to aim for.
      My job for me was then just a means of getting money so I could really live the life that I wanted to.
      I am not that into cars or bikes (was into bikes in my college days...but no more), but have over the past 15+ years developed a lot of interest in cycling.
      Got myself a good inexpensive geared cycle and absolutely enjoy my time cycling.
      Yes, I am not a millionaire but have the health, time and money to breathe in the beauty of nature through cycling.
      FIRE is something that every 18/20 yo kid needs to be made aware of.
      No point in "trying to be unique" by being a typical wage slave, when in today's world practically anyone can sign on a dotted piece of paper and get loans to buy the "look at me, I am unique" gadget/vehicle.

    Got the busa last year .It was a dream come true. Took me a year to realise my motoring experiences on the classic 500 were more lovable and special .I was more anxious and nervous ,than enjoying my rides on the busa. Realised exactly that buying the busa didnt make me a better rider. Also realised my style of riding and roadtrips are more laid back and slow . Have no shame in selling it off and continuing to enjoy my weekend trips with the classic 500.😅🙈

    Every weekday, I ride to office and back, 75 kms. A fellow "biker" who owns a costlier bike told me that these kms don't count as riding. He does mountain rides and considers them only as experience.
    Relating to the experience vs ownership aspect, I am doing what i aspired with a motorcycle and so is he. Every day, 2 hours, I am on a motorcycle, honing a few skills, focused on the environment, and enjoying the experience.

    The downside of dreaming too big is, if you are not fortunate enough, you see it straying away and away as time passes until a time comes that you realise that it isn't happening now, it won't be happening anytime soon and it cannot happen at all. That's when dreams shatter and then, even hard earned joy is sucked out. This is why having "Goals" is necessary in between what you have and what you dream. One step at a time!

      Yes, we're fans of this approach as well @vardanrathi7777. But we say have a final goal/dream that you'd one day like to see happen as well. Shumi's goal oriented like that so he always has that in his mind in addition to taking things one step at a time. If that works for someone, they can adapt that. Or, one step at a time works too. 😊

      I opened the comment section to write this and saw your comment already. I feel it's better to have practical goals rather than dreams as when dreams shatter you always have this pinch in your heart that "oh man, what I have is nice, good, I'm enjoying this but man if I couldn't get that, I wish I could get that" but you can't due to many reasons like your family problems or your financial conditions or any xyz reason and you keep on regretting that.

    I got in to off-roading about a year ago at the tender age of 31. Over the past year I've learnt so much about bikes, how they work, how to maintain them, DIY'd stuff I never thgt I have the ability to do. Started learning how to ride off-road, attended trainings, track days, did an FMSCI race which I struggled a lot with but didn't end up a DNF. Started working on fitness, drink a lot less now, hoping to get over smoking soon. Sometimes I feel I'm living the dreams I had as a teenager. Now I dream of doing INRC, just 1 season, do every leg of it, results don't matter.😊

    I remember last year when My dad and I were shopping for our first " premium bike" I had an early booking for the speed 400.
    When we went to the showroom my dad instantly fell in love with street triple😂
    He was instantly prepared to pay for it when I told him "12-15 lakh ki super bike hai"😂
    We were shopping around so when we went to BMW motorad he wanted to get the F900XR.
    I had to explain to him that we'd get into big big trouble on the road if we instantly went to the 650cc+ class.
    Then I had to explain to him the how many BHP we could control at our skill level
    ~ 25-40bhp

I happen to be a person who rode motorcycles back in college and soon after (the Yamaha rxz 5 gear)....it was unfortunately stolen around the time I turned 27...I am now 40 and planning to buy a motorcycle. Booked the scrambler 400x and I've been thinking about a lot of the stuff you guys have been talking about. Thanks to the both of you, i am going into this with a realistic mindset that includes starting slow and carefully...in the decade and half in between, it's just been scooters over short distances and the odd test ride to get the blood flowing:) Keep up the great work guys, This Connect has been a part of my weekly schedule!

    One of my friends had a polo gt tsi the one with 1.2 4 cylinder. I absolutely loved it and he didn't drive it much and it used to make me so mad that the car was such a garage queen. It was my dream car, and I'm a tourer so i used to love its capabilities and used to think, imagine this car in a sedan form and with a skoda design and suspension behaviour like the entry level luxury cars of that time (3series, c class, etc.)
    10 years down when i had to buy one, Skoda slavia was launched with a 1.5 tsi and the decision was just made for me, it ticks all the boxes for me. I've driven it 20k in a year and absolutely love the experience. What I've also realised is that i dont think i need anything better than this. Its got all the features I need and the performance is quite adequate for indian roads.
    When i had the dream i dreamt of what experience i want to have and not what brand or budget i want to go for.

    Experiences>>>Equipment Level.... This is so true..... As a Kid I have always loved playing football. I always aspired to own a pair of expensive classy looking Adidas cleats... and one day I did eventually got them... They were absolutely awesome... so much fun to play in... but with time everyone I used to play with grew up and the regular football games went from everyday to once a week and now barely onnce or twice a month...and I didn't really get to use them a lot.... Now in college I barely get time time to play football but whenever I see someone playing now matter and no matter what shoes i have on(or no shoes) I just go and have fun(even if just for 15-20 mins).... My cleats are still there but football is fun with or without them as long as the ball there... so just do the activity you enjoy even if you don't own or have the top class equipment with you....

    A nice cloudy cold afternoon in Bangalore turned warm and nostalgic as I started watching this. I remember being fascinated watching the Knight Rider car, and looking at the omnis, rajdoots and yezdis on the roads. And boy did I imagine futuristic cars, and draw out the most outrageous vehicles i could think of drawing inspiration from the Knight Rider. Then as I grew up, I discovered TopGear and dreamt of the longest road trips. Now been about 10 years since I bought my ns200, then a car and long road trips around the country. You guys have now stoked that fire in me to upgrade my bike and return to riding. Waiting for the bike delivery this week and hit the open roads again😊

    Just wow! I remember my dream when I got a Yellow Ducati 999 toy model on Christmas Eve in 1996 or '98. I was like, "Wow, one day..." For cars, it all started with Need for Speed five, the Porsche edition. That's when I realized how that company managed to maintain a certain design over the years yet still looks so new. That's when it hit me. I also remember making a scrapbook of cutouts of cars and bikes from magazines and papers. I know in the early 2000s, I had a few with you guys in it, and later, the internet became the source for all the madness. Being an enthusiast, I started riding at age 12 and driving at age 14, and everything since then has been about being a petrol head. I've wanted to do Ladakh for the last eight years but could never make it happen, so thanks for making me realize how little time we have.

    This podcast for me and the topic means so much more due to the discussion of chasing the experience over the material in itself. I consider myself ridiculously lucky having have gotten the opportunity to own and ride a Royal Enfield interceptor at the age of 21 I cannot explain how blessed I feel for just 5 years ago I was a teenage boy dreaming of owning the same bike after seeing it outside the motorcycle showroom. The universe has been extremely kind to me in that way, and this podcast perfectly encompasses the necessity I feel to change my perspective and chase experiences which in this case would be to use my motorcycle to its max testing myself and becoming the best and most responsible rider I can be and explore my country on two wheels which I feel will make far greater stories than just owning the bike, which I think despite my second to none love I feel for my interceptor I don’t think if I were to do the same experiences on any other bike would change my story, just the fact that I can do it on this I cannot explain more how kind the universe has been.
    I don’t comment usually but this is just my way of if I can somehow thank god for his blessings and my parents.
    And Shumi sir, I share the same dream bike in the future as the one u own which is the aprilia tuono v4 purely on the grounds to keep my aspirations higher and to chase the dream but until that comes true my experience with the interceptor will continue till my last breath and that I can guarantee.
    Thanks to both you guys and motorinc in general for widening my perspective and enabling me to appreciate what I hav even more and I cannot explain in words how much more beautiful your words, thoughts and ideology hav made my life and my experiences I feel with my bike. Thanks a lot

    I work in Bangalore and recently learnt riding bikes. I learnt it the hard way in traffic and feel pretty confident. I have many times thought about purchasing a bike but in practicality it will be a hassle to travel 13km up and 13km down to office everyday. I love riding so much that I would do that too but the experience of joy while riding will not be that great. Instead I rent a bike once every month and go on long trips. Once I am financially better off, I might travel once a week. For office, I usually take the bus which costs less and takes more time which is actually good because then it gives me the time to listen to Motorinc podcasts.

    Thanks to the motorinc I learned something today. I have been saving money for quite some time to upgrade my vehicle. I am a college student so yeah, it's quite difficult. I am halfway through the money stuff and now I feel like an idiot. Because as soon as I completed this podcast, I checked my Rayzr odometer and it's just 7,777km. Now I realize how much I could have done with what I have rather than just saving money for a bike when I haven't used up my current vehicle yet.

    As a school kid of the early 2000s I used to be fascinated by big manly looking 4x4 SUVs & all the other kids used to call me weird for preferring vehicles that looked like trucks while all the other kids liked sports cars.
    Now it’s them who are buying the not so SUV SUVs and I prefer sedans over today’s so called SUVs.
    My dream car is still the first Gen Safari. That was the first SUV I had seen with a non boxy aerodynamic curvy design and a tailgate mounted spare wheel at that time. A gorgeous looking monster.
    I still admire that car.

    This is a really relatable episode for me. My aspiration for the longest time was to own a Skoda because of how the first gen Octavia showed me what premium felt like.
    Owning one always felt like it would be something I would achieve much later in life. Fortunately, when it came time for me to buy my first car, the Kushaq was right there.
    Having attained it, my aspirations have now shifted towards exploring the country in my car, finding what the car and my limits are. I'm also aspiring to hit the track with this car. The idea of owning something else does come but it's not enough to replace what I already have and what I plan on doing with it.

    My story is one of a very few stories where the person from the company changed and swayed this to me
    About 10 years ago I used to live very close to the porsche service centre here in bengaluru
    And I had no interests in cars and other stuff whatsoever
    but had basic knowledge like the first few names in the world of premium cars like the Lamborghini but nothing serious but was always fascinated by the looks of a porsche like the Cayenne but I was not really in love with it
    But one day when i saw the boxster in that beautiful red colour they had it was mind-blowing I have not yet forgotten the date
    It was 31st january 2014
    The manager of the service centre was brilliant guy he let me touch that car and when speaking with my father he told us that it was freshly imported from germany and was being unloaded from the trucks which had come in from Chennai
    he let me touch that art peice of a convertible and I have taken a vow that one day i would be able to buy that car

    As humans, many of us have aspirations to own cars or bikes. I used to admire big vehicles and imagine myself owning them. Often, just by looks alone, my mind would gravitate towards a particular car or bike that seemed appealing within my budget. However, instead of merely entertaining the thought of "I should buy that car or bike someday," I now take proactive steps like test driving it. This hands-on experience provides me with a clearer understanding of what the vehicle is really like. If it lives up to my expectations during the test drive, I continue to desire owning it. But more often than not, after the test drive, the initial allure of that specific car or bike fades away if it doesn't meet my expectations. Happy motoring 😄

We'd like to see it change though.

    My family never had that fascination towards automobiles because of our financial condition. It was me who started everything on a bicycle. Dreamt of owning a big bike in my childhood although my dream at that time was to own an apache 180(big bike in my POV) which was way back in 2007 and I was not even 10 by that point of time. This created a fascination towards bikes and I've never stopped dreaming of owning a bike. But never had the luxury to ride them because we had no bikes/cars and were dependent on public transport till 2019 after which my family decided to buy an activa for me(I was the only rider back then but now my brother also llearnt how to ride it). It took more than two decades for us to ride our two wheeler but was all worth it. But now after turning 25, I've my dreams changed as I have wider perspective. Hopefully with efforts and dedication, I'll chase my dream of exploring most of the parts of India.

    This was a fabulous discussion, though I felt a roadmap could've been given for a clearer takeaway. For eg., whenever you're thinking of buying a car, ask yourself, "What could I want if money wasn't an issue?" Start with most aspirational and analyse what aspects of and associations with the car underpin your desire for it. Is it just brand value or something deeper like anecdotal tales of brilliant performance or reliability, or shallower, like a standout design? Then work in your budget and attempt to buy a version of that aspiration.
    I''m completely Shumi in terms of mental makeup, i.e. when he talks of ego as a way of self-absorption, as an almost unconscious disdain of others' opinions of you, I relate to that. But I'm Karthikeya in terms of decision making. I don't feel a ticking clock over me nor do I feel any sense of FOMO.
    Once again, this was a fab discussion, a welcome departure from last weekend's valuable but slightly morbid one.I look forward to the next one. Keep it up!

    If you do all this - whether by age 20 or 80(at least), you reached the point where comparisons are meaningless - you're not looking to be like someone else or have what someone else has or do what someone else does - You can have genuine respect and admiration for all of that, without making someone else's experience a benchmark.

    Also instead of saying "be so egotistical" we could focus on self-respect as the value? That has all the elements of what Shumi is trying to say without the negative connotations associated with the word "ego." Self-respect is hugely powerful and is the stepping stone, IMO, to loving and respecting others without falling into the competition hustle nonsense that is pushed down our throats, everywhere.

    Rohan Joshi in an interview once said “don’t walk like you own the world. walk like you don’t care who does.”
    Shumi’s ego statement reminds me of that. Words to live by :)

    Bought my first bike Enfield Machismo 350 in 1999.In love with it since . Has its pros and cons .Cons All drum brakes ,doesn't like to go above 60 , ain't much powerful. Rebuilt engine6-7 times. I will definitely keep it forever. Had picture in my mind about its upgrade from a long time . Has to be above 800cc, disc brakes front and back with ABS, monoshock in rear , v twin engine, belt drive 6 gears, tank mounted dials, full rear fender no chopped ones price around 5 lakh , service around Rs 3000,,Service duration of 10,000 km or 1 year affordable parts more macho than 350cc . only harleys (lowrider type) tick all these boxes but do not justify ridiculously high price, service ,parts. Enfield under siddhart lal went to parallel twin way ,never felt connected to this philosophy .Still hope against hope that somebody will make it . Don't know why companies are not going this way.

      Air cooled V engines have their engineering challenges. The 270 Parallel Twin is the sweet spot in terms of many variables including emissions norms and power delivery for all round bikes.

    I thought I commented this morning...
    Growing up, we have had the Chetak, the RX100 and a 1975 Nissan Sunny...either standing on the foot board of the Chetak controlling the steering on the empty road or listening to the music at the back seat of the sunny. All these led to me fall in love with the Bikes and Cars. Until I was at my legal age, our garage had only one Bike(one of a kind-Nepal made in collaboration with China) left.since then dreams have changed from Karizma,Apache rtr 180, Pulsar 220f, the NS 200,etc...and owning one that I dreamt is still pending...

      Lets begin, in early 2000s alot of chinese brands of bikes like Lifan, Suzuki GN125(its was chinese), and cars like zoyte,cherry etc entered in Nepali market, though they did not last for a long period due to lack of service and spares..But along with that a company named Cosmic Yingyang establised an assembly plant in Nepal and in 2004 the 1st model launched was Cosmic Yingyang YG100-12. It was a 100cc bike that came with a self starter with engine kill switch, analog tacho and speedo meter with trip meter,gear position indicator, 4speed gearbox with rotation type shift(I dont know the actual term), 18" alloy wheels, front disc with dual piston caliper. With all this feature at that period of time it was launched at a price of just 60,000 Nepalese currency(37k INR) where as the splender would cost about a lakh then. I would say the bike was good looking,decent power,reliable(my dad rode it for almost 14years), the only issue was the unavailabilty of the spareparts. The company shut down after few years due to our Government's bad policies... At present it is not in working condition but we still have that bike..its an emotion..now my dad rides a 2017 Pulsar 150..

    It's spot on. Aspiration for a thing is fine, but equating it with status or to impress people or just through social media consumption is not right. All materialistic things with requires empirical assessment and personal satisfaction is a must (it is not a abstract thing so). If someone dips as the piggy back into the pond of equating it with status or impressing people they have to go through the way of HELL. where HEAVEN is near.

    Great discussion guys …. I think our dreams get rationalised with age and experience.
    My sons always speak about buying a Lamborghini or a Ferrari when they grow up as they have seen videos of those cars, the way they look they sound and the speed at which they travel. But they are not at the age where they realise the impracticality they bring to the table in our country.
    But for me the dream is to have something which i can use to the fullest. Like karthikeya mentioned about a ducati v4, heck i will not buy it as i have seen my friend hurrying on their breakfast as riding back home through city will be difficult for them. I even ride by CBR to buy milk. Sometimes when i hear people are getting superbikes on the market which 3 years old and 3k on the odo i get scared, my bike is 14k in 18 months what will people think when i am trying to sell it. But what the heck i am enjoying it i am living my dream, i am riding it whenever i want and ti wherever i want.
    I just want to say if you one of the blessed person who are able to buy you dream car bike or anything use it to the fullest. We do not have dreams and aspirations just to keep them in the showcase.
    I feel sorry and sad for people who buy things thinking that these will change peoples perceptions.
    Keep up the great work and the episodes coming.

      Putting things in a showcase is as valid an ambition as any, but yes we agree with what you mean. Buying a thing and not using it to the fullest does seem silly
