  • Yes i saw the red CBR ABS in the showroom. Mr Pradeed asked me to go to the godown where there was a black one. I ran to the showroom when the Haiku honda dealer was taking it to his showroom. I just saw the bike up close and he just ripped the bike hard and went. Sounds very good at lower RPM's. Personally i would pick the red over the black.

                3. Overall, the bike looks very proportionate. NISSIN I guess is only for ABS version, non-abs bike has some other badge 'Babre' something.
                Its ByBRE.BREMBO owns KBX and now KBX brakes are re-badged as ByBRE,i guess it stands for By Brembo.

                    • just got back from Haiku Honda, he said the bikes are at the warehouses of every showroom in Bangalore except haiku but the bikes are on the way.

                      there's a 90 day waiting period from the date of booking and the official launch should be sometime next week. (I asked him if it was on Tuesday and he said yes, but it seemed more like him agreeing with me just for the heck of it )

                      And you know there's a long long way ahead of you
                      But when your wheels get you there,
                      Things will turn out right!

                        1. There are cycle parts, like the clip-ons looks quite cheap, the two big bolts fastening the clip-ons had different texture
                        2. The engine grunt is quite strong, in fact it is not as silent as people have said, but may be the bike was started in the showroom (enclosed space)
                        3. Overall, the bike looks very proportionate. NISSIN I guess is only for ABS version, non-abs bike has some other badge 'Babre' something.
                        4. Not able to saddle as many guys were busy taking pictures and one guy is busy wiping the bike all the time, IG key is similar to Twister/Shine
                        4a. The side indicators could have been integrated into the fairings, it looks bit odd.
                        5. Keep starring at the Honda wings on the tank, you'll forget everything and feel like walking to the desk with the cheque book !! B'cos no other bike will give so much for so less....
                        6. Haiku has 43 bookings at Domlur office & about 30 at OMR office, delivery in June.
                        how did you see the bike?
                        there was nothing when i went there today morning
                        There's a power that comes from deep inside of you
                        'Cause every day you're reaching toward the light

                        But when your wheels get you there,

                          Vijay, it was Ajay who had bought the Shotgun on the way back!
                          But I don't mind using that Shotgun for the same purpose.

                          • Finally saw it in flesh!

                            Hey guys! I finally went down to Sterling Honda showroom and saw the babe in red. Marvelous! The magnanimity of the bike blows you away.

                            The bike was standing on a makeshift rotating ramp in front of the showroom.

                            Check out some more pics:



                            The tank rises beautifully from the clip-on handle bars. It needs a tank pad!



                            The rear tyre is HUUGGEEE!! Beats the FZ !





                            The break lever is quite thin; quite like the gear lever.



                            The VFR1200R kinda headlight !!





                            Wonder what is that slate-like thing inside the fairings visible from the front?
