This has been discussed like a million times before. The Fi unit for India is because of the European standard emission norms.
The US have less stricter emission norms compared to India/Europe which is why initially even Harley had a tiff with government asking them to reduce the emission norms.
All said and done, I do believe this is a worthwhile product. One person who took a ride on the bike in the Bajaj test track in Pune said that it handled like magic. He also mentioned there was no surge of power but more of a linear delivery of power and clocked a 155kmph speedo read on the test track.
@Bunny: I remember reading somewhere that the carb version was more powerful than the Fi. I might be wrong.
