        yes it is avialble...

        first of all , clubman is a custom aftermarket kit made by hitchcocks motorcycles (UK delaer) to give a stock bullet a clubman cafe racer looks. all the parts in that clubman kit are just bolt-ons, nothing special... most of them (80% of them are available in india) except the fuel tank and the front fork top yoke...

        # Alloy front mudguard - - - electra's front mudguard
        # Front mudguard stays --- electra's front mudguard stays
        # Clip-on handlebars - - - these are available everywhere, most of them u find on pulsars, cbz's will fit the bullet too
        # Headlight bracket - - - the headlights will also come with a bracket to fit small turn indicators
        # Headlight shell - - - after market small headlights are available
        # Air filter - - - K&N conical performance airfilter, fits directly to the carb.. for this the the air box (optional) and the rect box (between the the airfilter box and the carb) have to be removed.
        # Side stand - - - remove the centre stand and put up a aftermarket chrome side stand
        # Fork gaiters - - - these are rubber protectors for your fork.. lots of aftermarket's are avialble.. most of the avl machsimo's have these
        # Fork top yoke - - - as i said this is not available in india, but u can go for the fiero fx console... the twin pods are small and also match the front headlight assembly
        # Exhaust system - - - the clubman is fitted with the goldstar exhaust.. not much of use, while considering the performance.. to give a upswept look, go to a good welder and ask him to give a uplift to the stock bend pipe and then fit a retro silencer... simple !!!
        # Cables (shorter for clip-on's) - - - shorter cable's are available everywhere, u can also try other bike's cables to fit
        # Seat/mudguard assy with tail lamp - - - clubman seats are avialble in india, rear mudguards -- put electra's chrome rear mudguard and go for a t'bird rear brake light assembly...
        # Electrics plate/battery carrier and covers... if u fit a air filter, and also remove the storage box and rec box the gap created... all the wirings and the coils are visible.. so u can cut a plastic board to fit and fit in to cover the gap.
        # Alloy tank with cap, tap, rear fixings and transfers --- go for the machsimo tank, the alloy tank is not availble in india.

        # Small chrome indicators --- after market indicators , most of the modded RX have these tiny indicatoers
        # Flyscreen - - = aftermarket flyscreens , u must have seen them in enticer

            hey prodigy

            u really made my day man - so it is possible to make it look like that - phew.
            have u modded or seen any bullet like this - cos u seem damn sure abt it.
            the thing is - iam planning to upgrade my bike from a CBZ to may b a karizma or a bullet ( i did post the topic abt karizma in its forum ) - but i like sport bikes more than cruisers - bored of the bullet being modded only as a cruiser.
            But i wanted ur suggestion for - whether i buy a new bullet and mod it or buy a second hand one. PLUS where in india do u stay ? I stay in hyderabad. Ihope i get these things here too ( i have not searched the market yet )

            but thanks again for such an "in depth" reply.

                ok, brute. u want to upgrade from cbz ???
                i suggest u to buy KARIZMA.. bullets are not sports bike and never can be !!! unfortunately ZMA was close to 92K when i bought a bullet for 66K, a week after purchase the ZMA prices were slashed to 76K ... if only a week later i wud have gone for ZMA.. although no regerts of buyin the beast but ZMA offers much more than bullet as a sporster !!!

                    if u notice, the clubman has really long rear shocks, the rear is jacked up giving it a sporty kinda look.. and now tank (i personally hate that clubman chrome tank) but still if u want to go for that tank, u can make taht shape tank from any aliminium works fellow , but that goin a bit too far for a god damn tank
                    but i loved the machismo tank .. the best tank i can ever remember in terms of asthetics...the bike with my specs will look better than the clubman, anyway the clubman is a siingle seater !!!

                      hey prodigy bhai - good to knw that u 2 r from hyderabad - iam kinda knew to the forums - but yesterday - did happen to check ur extensive R & D on bullet in this forum _bx350) n i was really happy to c some1 who is willing to share so much knowledge. I own a CBZ - i did wanna buy a bullet when i bought my cbz - but only the STD model was available easily ( 3 years back ) , but NO regrets in buying CBZ though - i just love it - but my thirst for more speed n power is growing. so i want a powerful and faster bike.
                      About the G2G i did read it - but sadly - i dont think i can make it this time bhai . xtremely tied down with work.
                      it was kinda my childhood dream of owning a retro race bike - lets c how things work out - but i wonder how bullets handle as racer bikes hmmm....
                      Bu t what about the new bikes to b releases this year ? i saw the show on NDTV last sunday - that guy said that there were no new performace ( apne type ke bikes )bike releases this year except for the 500 bullet. is it true - what about the Hero Honda 300cc ( or so ) bike ?

                        bullets are great bike when u don't own them... it can have any bike in india for breakfast lunch and dinner but to do so it requires huge amounts of time and money. if u want a bullet as a sports bike , then better be ready to spend lots of time, effort and money... go for a bullet if u like to have retro bikes (which u seem to like). have the time to spend on a bullet (which u don't) and want charecter and attitude. if u r lookin for a fast , slick, exotic sports bike go for ZMA..

                          very very true - actually my dad had a 1950's bullet and sold it when i was around 5 -6 years old - so thtz how that bullet craze stuck on to me - i guess.
                          u seem to have understood me very well - the time is the only factor which is preventin me 2 buy a bullet X( .
                          but i wud REALLY LOVE 2 c how ur bullet turns out 2 be. where do u stay in hyderbad n where r u getting it done ?

                          but what abt that hero honda 300 bike which is speculated for release in this year ? is it gonna come ?
