I ride a 2008 model scooter for local commuting but occasionally ride to near by towns too depending upon the situation
Like me this vechile has also seen the sunny days and now bit on the sluggish times
Bought by me in year 2016 as a used scooter, this machine stood by me and helped to ride all the ups and downs in my journey till now
The tough path took a toll on my shock absorber (mind) as well on the scooters shock absorbers
Me after recovering from the shock, began to ride again but the poor machine struggled to keep pace with my expectations
So I took the scooter to the neighborhood mechanic (doctor) who checked the machine's pulse
And diagnosed the need for total service, refreshing the lubricants and replacement of few parts
All totalling to cost my purse to go on a diet - to analyse the alternate possibility of exchanging for a new scooter
I approached a 2 wheeler brand showroom only to find out that I may end up loosing the purse as well my peaceful times
Today the scooter is at the clinic, getting full attention of the medical team and expected to be discharged by late evening hours
Ofcourse no Covid test was mandatory for the machine and me, still I masked my face to avoid looking at the treatment meted out to the scooter
Am eagerly awaiting for the reunion in the late evening hours to take a joyful ride back home :)
