      These are very much from india,machismo 500 is not available abroad . Pics courtesy : Parm@teambhp

      and I got a mail from RE saying -

      We will be launching the Classic 500 in India on 4th November 2009.

      We will be communicating the price on the launch date.

      Generally all dealers accept a booking amount of Rs. 10,000/- and collect the balance amount once the vehicle is ready. Delivery of the vehicle depends on the production plan. It may vary from 4 to 12 weeks depending on the location.

      Comparison of the Domestic Classic 500 EFI with the Export Classic 500 EFI:

      Differences are basically related to motorcycle regulations in force in different countries. Further, the exhaust emission norms vary between India, Europe and U.S.A. In view of the emission regulation, construction of silencer and other sensors have been modified to meet the emission norms.

        I talked to RE today.

        This is what the rep told me:

        1.The Classic will surely be launched within the next month.

        2.Bookings have not started yet .What they are doing is registering interested buyers.Once you get registered they'll contact you when booking starts.He advised me to get registered with my nearest dealer.

        3.He was tight lipped on the price.

        I can't wait for the launch.

          The red and off white RE classic C5 is a gem! Look forward to November when these beauties will be in the stores ...

          It would be expensive - 2 lakhs does not seem way off the mark. This is a different animal from the 'made for India' bulls we are used to seeing and buying, so expect to pay way more.

                            My guess is that the Classic 350 will sell for 1.1 L to 1.15 L OTR. Well Novemeber 4th is not too far away!

                              Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question.
                              Are they taking off std 350 from the showrooms with Classic 350 being launched ?
