Thats a great news Akhil. Lets see how it is priced. A sensible price that does not breach 7-digit figures after registration is something that can make it sell really well. Heck, even I would not mind a peep. And my vote goes to the one with a half-fairing. I just cant manage 150+ speeds without a fairing!!!

Maybe if it is priced around 6 Lacs, I will go for it!

But Again, since it's a litre class, it might be a CBU...

But, how do you know about this?

Nobody commented on the non-availability of the R1 or the MT-01 for display, but someone lamented that the bikes CAN be sold through this showroom, although the official service centre would still be the one at Malad. Ah. Let's see. More details tomorrow. The FZ-1000 SKD rumour was confirmed, though....
This statement was given by Veyron1, a senior member in Team bhp.

Seeing that it created no dispute there, it "may" be true ... Mods, have mercy if this is not news!

@ Acehunter: Well dude, The "R1" Logo on the sides is different in 07 vs 08 ...

In 07 R1, The word "R1" is negatively slanting, from back to front ...

In 08 R1, The "R1" is positively slanting ...

For Example, see in the image below:-->



Otherwise, technically they are both same.
