        ive only ridden one, but a viewpoint... hell why not...

        SUZUKI HAYABUSA(2010) - the most recognizable bike. And also reviewed to be quite friendly for first time learners.


        HONDA CBR1000RR(2010) - The most safest in terms of features ( ABS), and most comfortable in traffic and general handling.


        YAMAHA R1(2010) - The new crossplane crank does improve the low end of the bike. Again a very recognizable bike, but more for its higher end grunt than overall driveability.


        I would recommend the busa for the image/performance, and the R1 for the looks and the mad bike it is. The Honda is my personal favourite, so i would want minimum bikes on the road... ( keeping mine exclusive when i get it! )


        My offerings to the gods of speed -

        - KTM Duke 200
        - Yamaha RXZ 5 speed

          Go for R1 if its damn urgent, 2nd best alternative will be forthcoming GSX1000R. No doubts about this Suzuki bcoz Hayabusa is definately a Legend compared to three.

          Further if u can stretch a bit & wait a more, new VFX from Honda is a bike from future - a direct Navi from AVATAR u can say !!!!
          You must be the change you wish to see in the world

            R1/1000RR are different motorcycles compared to GSX-1300R,
            depends what you want

            A Hayabusa is the safest bet for newbies and will delight pros alike,

            going by palashroy's criteria, my vote goes for the Hayabusa followed by 1000RR and R1

            if i were in your shoes, would beg/borrow and test-ride 1000RR/R1 to my satisfaction, the 'busa doesn't feature in my scheme of things
            boils down to specific rider and their needs

                I will Buy a R-1 anyday given a chance to buy SBK's , If at all i wish to buy another one it would be The Blade CBR1000r . Busa in my opinion doesn't have the looks as the other two.
                all These are around 14 lakhs

                    what will u use the bike for?

                    posing+ touring-BUSA

                    a bit of commuting+touring= 1000rr

                    hooliganism and general pant wetting stuff= R1

                    but the 1000rr is a safe bet..it is like comfortable pair of jeans ..wear it to a club or lounge at home it fits the role..
                    but from what i have read the r1 is pretty uncomfortable in the city

                    the the speed differences donot count as i am sure u wont be using your bike for competitive sports

                      When u spend 10 lakh+ on a bike, it all boils down to personal opinion and tastes. U will never use all the features/power etc that the bike will offer. India has still not grown up to SBKs anyway. And this is going to be ur dream come true. Better go with what ur heart says than ask for suggestions and get confused!!!

                          I'll side with Apar on this one. Go with what your gut says. There can be 'n' number of comparisons between these bikes, but in my book, they're all the same. I'm a decent rider with no racing aspirations, and even if I was ultra talented, I'd still not be able to use / exploit the full potential of any of these bikes. They're just too damn advanced now.

                            Couldnt agree more, i almost went to book R1 for myself two weeks back here in INDORE, (he was booking it for me for 5000bucks!!!), but then i pulled my hands back and decided to wait for the GSX1000 too, (father coaxed real hard for that)as spending the hard earned 13 lacks on two wheels do requires loads of thinking, to get ur hands on the machine you desire.

                            I hope 600's should be available legally by the time GSX1000R will be here cuz 600 anyday makes lots of sense.

                              If that were true, then I wonder why the Busa is considered to be the most badass bike by hooligans!

                              That apart, I have my eyes waiting for the GSXR750 (yeah yeah I know...) trying to convince someone to sell it off now!
