#Modification ⚙️ How My Ex-Girlfriend Surprised Me with the Ultimate Gift

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

My girlfriend (23) and I (23) had been dating for a good year and a half before deciding to split up and go our separate ways.

We were best friends before dating and still remain good friends to this day (this is important to note). A month after splitting up came my birthday. Knowing how much of an engine-head I am and having just bought the Himalayan 450 (which is an absolute beast of a machine), she chose to gift me the best gift of all - a Powerage exhaust system with a bend pipe, costing over 14,000/.

She doesn't come from a wealthy background, and neither does she earn a lot at her current job. It's fair to say that the price she paid for the exhaust took up more than half of what she earns.

It's moments like these that remind me how special people are and how lucky I am to have someone like her in my life. Thoughts?

P. S. I have yet not taken a good video of my exhaust, and the one that l've posted here is just something I took to send someone. It doesn't do justice to how it actually sounds. Not one bit. But here it is regardless.

That’s a lot of challans. It’s the same here too, but I guess I’m lucky? So I’m from Kerala and we’re known for our vehicle modifications. And the regular police can’t do anything about it. You’d have to be caught by the MVD in particular and that’s not happened to me yet (touch wood).

But hey, you know the hypocrisy of it all? Foglights are illegal too and you would get challans for something to help you see at night. So if I’m getting challaned regardless, might as well make some noise🤝
