Yes i know !! i was waiting to write what i think. been reading alot of threads, people raving about R1. Now, I have not ridden R1, would be nice if i get a chance.
So all i can write about is what i have experienced.
Yestarday i was cruising through the city. was a nice day , as it was election day, so the roads were pretty much empty. Anyways, kolkata roads even if empty, cant be taken lightly as you dont know where you will find a pot hole or a ramp ready to launch you into the sky !
But inspite of all this, the blade is just so so so comfortable in the city.
I own a pulsar for the last 3 years. So i was a bit sceptic about how will the bike fair in city conditions, but lemme tell you guys, i have absolutely no problem with this "superbike". The only problem is heat. On a sunny day it becomes demanding, sun on top, 1000ccs of fire beneath !
The riding position needs time to be adjusted too, but after a while it becomes comfortable.
Now whenever i ride my pulsar, i keep feeling that something is wrong with it, and its not anything related to power !
My point is , people do not know this bike, and it deserves alot of praise and respect
