I will not be surprised if one day you go back there in autumn or early spring - when it is not monsoon season.
Thanks for the warm welcome, singhg5! Yes, there is definitely some unfinished business in Ladakh and a return trip is in the works for the future!
Why did not Lalli give you the new electronic fuel injector bikes with electric start - it is the red (maroon) bike in his shop in your website pictures ? How much was the rental fee for your bikes ?
The cost for each bike for 15 days was Rs.22000. The maroon bike in the shop was beautiful, but alas we got the silver and black models, which worked out well because of the pretty pictures we got of the scenery reflecting off those tanks!
I don't think Lalli had any EFI models in stock and he said the first thing they do when they get any Enfield is to strip out the starter motor because of chronic seizing issues.
Thanks for the clarification on the gurdwaras, will definitely update the site with this information!
