    If this happens, we would have sbk's for free... How?

    The frustrated owners in India who've paid 14l for an SBK would donate SBKs and take up 'sanyaas'


    P.S.- Humour, no offense.
    You get the point?? :D

          But seriously, I do hope things are finalized, locked and loaded. No more 'under consideration' business...

              The news is good, but the only thing to be seen is as to how this will affect the pricing of Japanese SBK's in India, & from when will it come into effect ? Let's pray & hope for the BEST.

                  You are asking for the impossible , they'll take their own sweet time, and with lots of things going on (CWG, Maoists, terrorist Attacks), do u think the govt will take up this issue that easily? i don't think so...
                  Every BIKE has a lot of speed in it. The trick is getting the speed out of it.

                      actually this treaty has been in pipeline from the past 5-6 years... and there is a lot of pressure on the indian government from the super powers to reduce the duties on all kinds of trade so we might see some progress in this front... moreover the two governments are meeting like after every 5-6 months to work things out...

                        woah..
                        thats good news..
                        but i wonder when it will be implemented!!!!
                        the talks might take alot of time...
                        anyways.. but the possibilities are endless!!!!
                        An R1 or a Hayabusa below 10 Lac would be totally awesome!!!!!
                        Keeping fingers crossed!

                              Whoa! Get a hold of yourself boys, its not gonna happen so soon. But then dreaming won't hurt.
                              I am/will be looking at a used CBR1000RR in 3 years time. Probably the duties would have come down by then and even the used bikes will be a lot more affordable.
                              I am thinking 4L.

                              Wishful thinking, perhaps!
