Really exciting for those with really deep pockets ........ Or those whose parents hv deep pockets.........none the less its very positive for the indian biking scene....................
but the best launch will be the ninja 250r as it will be the bike which will really take sport biking to a next level as it will be much more affordable for most people.........

I found this video on YouTube.

Interesting parts were that of Dhoni riding a 1098 with full gear for some photo op. Wonder why and when.

And Honda makes the R1 lol

Check it out

Dhoni and his 1098s was shown in "Jai Jawan" on NDTV few days back where he raced 1098s against an IAF's jet fighter (mirage I suppose).

Default fantastic news..

Hi,

The launch of hayabuza is indeed fantastic news. But Suzuki should also try to bring something like Gladius to India. 12 Lakhs for a bike is still out of the reach of most of the people. Anything between 1-2.5 lakhs is still within the reach of existing and aspiring bikers in the middle class segment.

Man u seriously need to consider an update for your GK...

HH is the leader far above anything in INDIA, hardly 20-30 ppl will be buying these great machines, dat too in a year or half... while HH solds their lil
100-150cc's in every corner of INDIA with almost 3 lakh bikes/month on average... it sold nearly 4 lakh bikes in sep '08, with 23% growth, no present Indian bike company is even near to dat.
