Today, I inquired and he said the yellow and red lot has arrived... no clue on the blue!

My personal choice was the old red with blackish fairing, which went out of production in 2009... I wonder why yamaha took off the good color and replaced it with a girly deep pink (not red) that suits on nothing but scooties? I simply do not like the racing colors or the graphics... so blue with the old graphics was my next choice, hence booked it. Now even if they get blue with the new vinyl, I'd be happy... to ultimately lay my hands on it.

In WB, I gotta pay Rs. 1,03,500 on road... I guess it is far higher elsewhere.
Same story here in Mangalore. Finally, the stock has arrived today, my friend is getting his delivery today, but I must sell the FZS which I won in Yamaha IBR, so that I can have the finances to fund for the new bike. For that I must go to Mumbai and pay my gift tax and bla.. bla.. bla

Anyone from Mumbai interested in a virgin FZS?

BTW, the old red is still very much in production. I saw a huge line-up for red (old) R15s in their greater noida manufacturing plant. Not sure, if it's sold in India though.

BTW, R15 is 1,13,000 OTR in Mangalore
