    ^^ well in those conditions the R15s fan turns on within 5-7 min of operation, that might give you an idea what would happen with the moster being 1100cc. but i still think its normal. As far as india is concerned, i guess this bike would not be used for daily use or regular commuting. Just an assumption
    Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

      Of course, daily commuting is not possible on these bikes.
      But for occasional usage and fun drives also, one cannot escape dense traffic in India. I mean John Abraham and all the similar dudes are great, but if one can only take his bike out post 2 o'clock in the night...

      I guess the heat will be little more than normal bikes but not intolerable. Us Indians are any day way more tolerant and patient compared to our European counterparts. They ***** about the heat in traffic conditions similar to interior Rajasthan and weather conditions similar to interior Himachal Pradesh.

        Your right about the european guys, but for me personally i would take it out in early morning or late night, thats the way the R15 is being used.
        In the afternoon Delhi has lesser chances of having traffic jams. You would find that type mostly in office hours near 8-9am or evening 6-8pm. Again, least chances of getting heated, but yes a liquid cooled engine is anytime welcome in anywhere in India.

No sir it is not just tasty it is mike tyson's upper cut on your balls and hollyfield's left cut to your face. It is chitrangada singh bumping into you at a local superstore. While wearing clothes made from chocolate. Melting chocolate at that.

            It is the jolt from the paramedics to get your heart restarted.
            whoa ! now we are actually talking about the DUCATI !
            A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

              Awesome bike, but I wonder why they're so costly. Italian marvel..!!!
