Love the words of wisdom by Shumi.

This one made it clear for me that Shumi's life n mine were not just slight resemblance when it comes to motorcycles and what importance they hold in our lives, but an absolute carbon copy. May not be that exuberant stamp collection I had, but still a decent one along with my self made automobile magazine comprising of newspaper cutouts of superbikes n cars n formula1. In this era of internet where anyone is open to all sorts of info at just a tap, Shumi's words felt like the unexpressed feeling which goes on through my mind (including Shumi n maybe many other who value motorcycles so much in their life) when people just want to do the motorcycle thing anyway instead of doing it right n doing it all in. The easier it becomes while acquiring something the lesser we tend to respect it. Ride safe ride far. May god bless the entire Motokind🙏

[@monicraja2264]

Simply put.. Consume the Internet in a good way. Fuel your passions. The Web has everything you need to learn more about things you love. Well said Sir Shumi💯

[@sarbikm3654]

It's not just a podcast on motorcycles, it is more of a life lesson as well. Thanks Subhabrata & PD !!

[@rahulsinha000]

Oh Shumi, Shumi, it felt like you were absolutely talking directly to me. The guy with wide shallow knowledge and can identify almost every vehicle by looking at three quarter of headlight. It hit me like a bucket of ice cold water. Thanks man & thanks PD.

[@sunlightthemars]

Well put Shumi. We do change overtime. Riding like maniac to graduating to cruising. Hobbies become passion. Ride, break, rebuild, polish, it's a surreal experience.

[@pritesh.s]

Shumi truly is a Rolls Royce among normal cars when it come to his sheer knowledge about the automotive industry and i say that with utmost respect for every other automotive journo present on social media.

[@diptarkaghoshhajra5551]

There's so much to know about and from this man.. I liked how Shumi casually opened up about his life. This guy could have quoted any big, successful billionaire of the world.. but he chose to quote examples from his life.. examples or ideologies that he has lived by day in and day out.. now that is something to respect. As for the content, it was 12 minutes and 32 seconds of Life lessons, every person needs to listen.. rider or not, automobile enthusiast or not... What I wouldn't give to ride and learn from the Veteran! Hats Off Shumi! Hats Off PowerDrift!

[@bishalbaisak1400]

Powerdrift is ascending to a new level everyday. Shumi's story telling skills are unbelievable 🔥

I got what u said. I am a mechanical engineer. I can understand youth these days is only superficially interested in things. They don't "feel" the motorcycling to deeper depths

[@swapnilpatne2203]

Shumi you not only changed my perspective towards motorcycling but also how to learn things and how to learn them properly. It's always pleasure listening to you. Love you guys

[@umanggupta7097]

So when you talk philosophy, SHUMI is one who can really teach you philosophy of life through Motorcycles. The level of contemplation he reflects, and the thoughts he always has to share compels you to think and think deeper. Bravo!!

[@sunnysinghrana4999]

The very exact thing I've been hearing my entire life From my mother "If you love it, then shouldn't you be doing it well". This episode literally hit me In a very different way. It's just a mixed reaction but still coach @Shumi will take care of it.

Just another day another talent discovered, Shumi also teaches values! He is massively, massively underrated, underreported and underrepresented. I feel bad for motorcyclists who don't follow/watch Shumi.

Really well put together Shumi, I started experiencing my rides no matter how small or long ones after I started listening to your podcasts. Your are a ocean in terms practical n theoretical knowledge in universe of bike riding n life lessons too man

[@Unkahin_Bakchodiyaan]

Hello PowerDrift team and Shumi, Thank you for Simplified and Podcast series. I request you guys to please publish a monthly magazine incorporating all the facts, concepts, engineering, skills, experiences, developments and scope of developments happening around the globe. This will help bike enthusiasts like me to dig deeper into the depth of knowledge and get the insights in a lucid manner. Afterall if it's worth doing, it's worth doing well. *Wink Wink* Thank you!

[@mohammadsakib9290]

You are right sumi. Riding my bike after knowing it gives me way better feelings. My Apache is part of my life.

[@awenindoe]

I totally relate to you in school. That's exactly how I was. Still am an annoying know-it-all, but have matured enough to know that I actually don't know anything. And this curiosity should be the driving force in everyone's life, for at least one thing that they feel passionately about. I binge watched these podcasts and honestly, the overlap of motorcycles and philosophy reminds me of "Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance". Absolutely stellar!

[@tusharkant2684]

[@tusharkantisen1592]

It's never to late to learn something new, even though I am a biotechnologist nothing excites me more than what goes into making those mean machines. The Engineering, the R&D, the hours of trial and error is what gets me going. Looks and sound and feel and so is superficial but goes into making it is the real deal. Thanks Shumi and #PD

Completely accept everything which you said, everybody needs to focus on what motorcycling is all about rather than just seeing what the spec sheet tell and what other enthusiast tell about it. It's always not about the motorcycle, it's about the rider who rides it. Rider skills and knowledge matters the most in motorcycling, which many need to understand..!!

I think this quote from Martin Luther King, Jr sums up exactly what Shumi is trying to convey.... “If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted,or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well.”

Brilliant one. The spark had ignited something in me.

[@krishanukona1704]

A great life lesson shumi. I usually love reading about anything that I get into, but for some irrational reason, I subconsciously thought of motorcycling as a part of life that is done practically and never read up too much about it, but you've changed all of that. Also @Shumi, across the road from NCERT? Did you study at MIS by any chance. If you read this, I would love to know which batch you passed out from and meet you at the alumni meet on 26th January sometime.

There is a difference between passion and curiosity. Motorcycle is a machine. Knowing how the machine works and how the different parts are tuned to get different performance characteristics is what is lacking. Yes, this is not taught in schools, so we have to be self taught.

[@47.000]

Knowledge is Power

[@ajayb100]

For me the difference comes from the way I feel while working on my bikes or while riding them, I get the feel of how my bikes piston/pistons are moving at this rpm and what ratio of afr is in an action, what sort of ignition timing is in play, what suspension settings I am running and how it’s behaving with the current set of rubbers etc which usually covers the entire bike vs few so called self proclaimed bikers as they got money and biking is another way for them to show their wealthy lifestyle and it takes them to some resort over the weekend. For me every bike comes with its purpose vs any bike costing over 5 L is “superbike”

[@WaqarAhmad-nk2ic]

If any thing worth watching for a motorcyclist, it would be your show. I really have a passion for motorcycle but still I want to learn many things which I don't get usually on internet. PD you are doing a great job..
