shammi Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Hi, I'm from Sri Lanka and I mostly ride Japanese bikes as that's what's mostly available here and they are good fun. I own a Honda VT250 atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However right now I honestly can't recommend anybody to come on Holiday here as the essentials are short on supply. Right now you would not be having the best time here due to the lack of fuel especially as you won't be able to travel to the places. But hopefully everything gets back to normal in the coming weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been hearing about soaring fuel prices in different parts of the world. Has it affected you guys and riding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 It's gone up but not to the point of crippling the country, it has put the price of just about everything else up too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, before the shortage, petrol did go up in record high levels here too and that raised everything......except the monthly pay checks! Hopefully the world calms down and everything goes back to normal. Edited June 30, 2022 by shammi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
