    It's not on display. We saw it in the warehouse of Sapphire Honda. We've been calling that guy almost everyday for updates and have troubled him a lot.
    So we just decided to go there directly today. And when we went there, he told us that he has got 5 bikes and took us to his warehouse. Though he looked a bit hesitant first.
    I guess many of the showrooms in Bangalore have got the bikes, but some are yet to get it. So they all are waiting for all the showrooms in Bangalore to get it and then keep it for display on a common date.
    He also told us that they were planning to have a function/launch tomorrow. But Honda people have asked them not to do it tomorrow since all the showrooms have not got their bikes yet... So now, that event might happen next week.

      Good news Bengaluroooo...
      THE CBR is here... Just back home after seeing it in flesh...
      Yes Bangaloreans, you heard it right... Bike is here and we saw it in flesh...
      And just not seeing, we touched it, felt it, sat on it, switched it on, put on the headlight & indicators, honked it, revved it, switched it off, opened the rear seat...
      Wohhhooo!!! (sadly no test ride and no pics, but for now, chalta hai... )
      And then happily came home drenched in rain...

      First impression: The bike is huge... It surely has a BIG bike presence. Quality of the parts looked really good. There were no issues with the clip-ons as we saw in some of the pics from Mumbai... I'm 5'8 and I felt it was perfect for my height. We started the engine and man... the sound was really really good compared to what we have heard in those videos... Yes, all 3 of us were equally surprised and satisfied with the sound. And when you rev it, it's going to have a better sound. We haven't found any negative points after spending 30 odd mins with the bike. Speedometer console looks a bit small though.
      The showroom guys asked us not to click any photos right now, and we agreed to it.
      And then we rode happily in the rain and came back home...
      Seriously guys, pics don't do the justice. You've to see it to believe it. The wait is worth it.
      No test rides?? Is it like Ninja, buy without test rides? or will they give test rides after few weeks, probably in may?

        No test ride because its still in the warehouse. Once they keep it for display, test rides also will start.

          I guess all the Bangalore guys will be happy now
          Now we all wait to lay hands on our OWN CBRs

There are 21 bookings done till now from this showroom and if I book now then the delivery will take two months at the max. Asked them about the Finance option and this is the details provided to me.

              Ex-Showroom price: 1,47,046
              Insurance: 1966
              Temp Reg: 30
              Life Tax: 13,284
              On road price: 1,62,326

              Finance option:

              36 Months:

              Down Payment: 47,142
              EMI: 4766*36
              Is this the final quote or just an approx. one?
              I feel interest rate is high? Is it not?

                  This is the final quote buddy!

                  And as far as I remember, similar quotation was given to Mumbai guys, DP was 53K and EMI was around 4400 for 36 months (I believe the price in Mumbai is bit more) please correct me if I am wrong. But I still agree that the Interest rate seems to be higher, was in a hurry so did not ask for the details, will do that once I go there to book the bike.

                              Yes of course Ashwin who can after reading such good reviews

                              15k for all that? Looks good the offer but who knows how good the helmets and gloves are. Definitely would buy products outside.
