Then again...one does need to have some sort of risk apetite when buying a 600 in India but if that aint a problem then u should go for the 600 than the litre. wont go into the reasons of that as they its just my opinion.

Sorry to say friend i only want a legal thing so will not take the risk and i will go for the R1 only

Dude dude dude

R1-> official or not official.
R1-> not official -> dump the vehicle and buy an official one.
R1-> official -> take the papers and go to a lawyer.
R1-> official -> no need to cross check chasis no etc.

Its simple...go buy a bike from a yamaha, honda or suzuki showroom like you would go buy bread from a grocery store..dont complicate it much !

Tenhut from Pune who got his CBR recently , told us that he got the bike checked as per DRI docs for legal import.

Seriously will that work What are the things to look for in checking papers by yourself and what are the papers in total which should be there with a SBK

Oh you dont know half the story, these supers depreciate quite rapidly.
For instance, I know some in my locality who got a used official R1 last year for around 7.5-8L and mind you this bike had tons of after market parts including a 2 Bros exhaust, custom levers, wheels and HID's.

So yes, an official 2008 R1 can be had for around 7L.

Wish I had that kind of money, would have bought one myself.

I did not say that it was impossible. my freind could not find one in Delhi for under 8.5L. I think 7L for official 08R1 in good condition is a good price and should not be missed.
