It was a proud moment for me to hold the Indian flag in Thailand after successfully completing the ride. My 5600 kms of adventure on Suzuki Intruder Fi has made me realize that if you are fit and active you will never run down on energy and you will readily take up challenges with a pinch of salt to feel satisfied and imbibe wisdom with time and experience. I am extremely thankful to Suzuki Motorcycle India for all the support in making this rising a successful one.”

I believe that any journey taken in life teaches us a lot and we always return wiser, stronger and livelier. Despite riding through versatile terrains and extreme weather condition, Suzuki Intruder Fi maneuverability and sturdiness was impeccable living up to the spirit of modern day cruiser. An adventure motorcyclist is always happy when in charge of the wheels, and I am extremely grateful to Suzuki’s management for giving me a platform like this to push my limits and adventure worth re-living.”
