Is the ground clearance also increased for Indian roads? The international spec is 135mm.AFAIK.
Also, did they say anything about the octane no.for fuel? I'm assuming it won't run on anything less than 91 octane!

well it sounded meaty enuf in the closed show room I am sure you would find it louder than r15

Thanks a lot buddy! I thought they would display it with a single seat cowl or alteast get it as an option later on. I was worried about the exhaust, but since you say it sounds meaty, I go with your word.
I have to check out my savings now!

anyways , here is the summary of what I know -
1.Its a CKD not a CBU
2.Price would be more than 2.5L for sure but should come around 3L
3.The exhaust is changed , rear cowl made black and rear cusion coloured green ( the green part is the cushion not the cowl)
4.Its a UK/EU spec 33ps , Fi bike . No changes except the front number plate.
5.No saree guard attached.
6.Could not spot the main stand , only a side stand
7.BAL making minimal profit on this bike so that they do not make a loss.
8.Only in green and black (UK spec colours)
9.People trained in Japan will service the bike.
10.Exhaust note sounded quite meaty
11.The BAL guys themselves ahve hit 160 (on the speedo) on the chakan track

hope this helps

wud have loved to , but I cant , just bought a bull , cant buy two bikes in a year. More over i want to wait and watch and see the servicing bit. then maybe next year i will take a call whether to go for a usable powerful bike or an unusable mt01/sbk

i was patiently replying to ppl but not anymore , nobody has been reading anything but just come and crib. god its painful.

Thanks for all the info dude, you are really answering everyone including me so patiently!
Btw, are you also planning for it? I have a lakh ready...

Yes, but not for all, only for special cases, provided they have a very strong reason behind it!
Anyways, I'm the same guy!

aaah , last time i remember that if u send a pm to sunny , he does it , but only if u are an active member . i dont want to change mine , just that I wanted to know if u are the same one i keep seeing around

Yeah thats right...I was R15Rocks. I'm really sorry, but that cannot be divulged. I can only tell you that it is not possible to do it on your own&it won't be done by Mods either!

hey , how did u change your id/name , u were r15 rocks , right?
