Harley-Davidson Out there in IC Engines Lab

guys n gals you would have definitely seen the harley davidson inour ic engines lab.........it is one helluva bike...really cool...stunningly stylish.......let me review it.......

PROS: Quality, Modern liquid cooled engine, performance, frame, looks.

CONS: Cornering lean angle, gas tank (fill up every 60 to 80 miles), rear-brake noise, hard clutch-pull, front brake lever travel

Engine: Liquid cooled, fuel injected, low vibration high tech state of the art combined with outstanding attention to detail and craftsmanship. Engine is very smooth and but does not give up the traditional HD feel.

Transmission: shifts excellent. Very positive with short space between gears just like a typical japans bike. This is a welcome departure from HD’s past cave-man transmissions.

Suspension: excellent, compliant but not mushy, very progressive but bike is a little firm overall – leaning towards a little more towards sport and away from plush cruiser.

Ground clearance / cornering: This is the most serious problem and is a safety issue. This bike has the worst ground clearance

different Views of the bike............





i wish he gave his 10% of height 2 me





Robert Wadlow - Enna Height idhu .................

well guys he is the world's tallest man.no other introductions necessary......

Robert Pershing Wadlow is the tallest person in medical history for whom there is irrefutable evidence.Wadlow reached 8 feet 11.1 inches (OH MY GOD !!!!!!)in height and weighed 490 pounds (220 kg) at his death. His great size and his continued growth in adulthood was due to hypertrophy of his pituitary gland which results in an abnormally high level of human growth hormone. He showed no indication of an end to his growth even at the time of his death.

Murdeshwara Temple






We all need a break from a day to day schedule and so I make it a point to take a break from work every year. I normally do this in May as I love to travel and May is the best month for doing so.One place you can accompany your parents on a trip is to Coastal Karnataka. I was there for a week.

The serene, beautiful state of Karnataka offers more than a perpetual holiday and more. It brings you close to nature and yourself. The place is beautiful sorrounded by lots of greenery, mountains, dense forest and not to forget the picturesque Falls..

But one thing that I can never forget was my two day stay at Murdeshwar.


Situated between Honavar and Bhatkal is the scenic holy place. The place is believed to have been sanctified by a piece of the Pranalinga of Gokarna’s Mahabaleshwara thrown by the demon Ravana. The world’s tallest idol of Lord Shiva is set at Murudeshwar, already famous for its ancient temple on the seashore. The idol of Neelakanta is 123 feet tall and has taken nearly two years to build.The Shiva statue, which has been built out of a single stone found right there in the sea! The statue looks to be at least 100 feet high but carved with so much attention to detail - the long shapely fingers, intricately knotted hair, the serpent coiled around its neck and the tiger skin he's seated on. Then we realise, there are more of these life-size statues and demons around this central statue. There was also a beautiful chariot being driven by a hero of one of the epics. It was Krishna driving Arjun to do battle with his cousins, the Kauravas. This was a scene from the Mahabharat.



What's astounding is that this complex winds up from the beach and climbs up a steep incline, on the very edge of which is the Shiva statue. Towards the seaward side, a railing cordons off visitors from pitching into the sea below. Work is still in progress here, as stone masons are busy at work, carving the many stories that our culture abounds in, into the walls of the hillock on which the Shiva statue is seated. Tourists are still allowed to go around and take a look, free of cost. This is one beach with attractions of a different kind!

This review would not make any sense if the history of this place is not known and I can assure you it is worth reading and knowing. It is NICE TO KNOW.



Ravana, the all-accomplished and all powerful decided to get the ’Atmalinga’ from Shiva so that he also could become immortal by worshipping it. With this great ambition he went to Kailasa and performed the rites. Lord Shiva was soon impressed by Ravana’s devotion and appeared flanked by Goddess Parvathi on his left.He then said passionately to the king of Lanka that he was much pleased with his devotion and that he would bestow any kind of boon he would ask. Ravana’s happiness found no bounds and got up and asked Shiva to grant him the ’Atmalinga’. Though Shiva was worried at Ravana’s wish he did not like to go back on his promise and therefore gave him the ’Atmalinga’.As Shiva gave the linga to Ravana, the former told the latter that he should carry it home by walk, that he should never place it on the earth even for a short while failing which the linga would get eternally embedded at the place were he broke his commands. By saying this Lord Shiva disappeared and Ravana soon set out southwards carrying the linga in his hands with great care. The Gods learnt this and were disturbed at the prospect of Ravana’s becoming all powerful and capable by possessing and worshipping the ’Atmalinga’. They devised a plan to install the linga somewhere and knew that Sri MahaGanapathi was alone capable of doing it. Vinayaka as was planned earlier came to the presence of Ravana in the guise of a Brahmin boy, Ravana was happy to see him. He called him near and asked him to hold the linga in his hand till he came back after finishing the rites.

Ganapathi agreed to hold the linga on one condition that he would do so till he would be able to bear its weight and that thereafter he would call Ravana three times and if failed to come to him by then he would place the linga on the earth. But before Ravana could complete the rites and come back Ganapathi placed the idol on the earth at a very auspicious moment. Ravana got furious and came to the entrenched linga and tried to uproot it but the idol did not budge a little.

The crestfallen Ravana was deeply agitated and in anger he threw the case, the lid, the cloth in which the linga was wrapped,the thread that had bound the linga in 5 different directions which has now taken five forms and are treated as five holy places. One of which is Murdeshwar.



The gigantic statue of Lord Shiva overlooking Murudeshwar entices tourists. I just could not stop looking at it. The sea surrounds the temple on three sides.


So if ever you get a chance To visit this place Dont Miss It.

LINKIN PARK - " in the end "


the best song of all times...........

if u have not listened 2 it ....do it RITE now.............

Good Points


Easy listen, catchy lyrics brilliant. 
Great vocals this song is one of the best songs of all time. 

Linkin Park really show their talent


Bad Points

I have been listening to this song for ages and still can't find any down points to it. 
Maybe its because its perfect


Linkin Park are an amazing group of people and the song In The End is just as good as them. Brilliant. It is worth every penny you spend for (if you buy music). The genre is alternative/post grunge and not quite hip hop. If you love Linkin Park (like myself) you will see that this song is one of the greatest songs in the World!!!! If I was to pick a song to listen to over and over again then no doubt it would be this one.!!!

just see the video.....
