    I hope you have watched the video closely. Those 2 bikes were almost similar. So what is wrong with the expectation ?
    i have watched it as close as possible they have fit the track fit body on the R25 which looks similar to the M1. thats all.

    From the link you have posted, what I understand is the term "Baby M1" refers to "performance"

    Don't we call Ninja 250 as a baby Ninja?? did it look anything like the elder siblings? at-least till the launch of Ninja 300..

    I am not saying anything against what you are saying. but just saying why expect it to be the same when it is just a Track fitted body..

    I was getting notifications and i just couldn't stop from commenting I am going back to being a silent spectator again

    Cheers

      Don't we call CBR 250 as a baby CBR?? does it look anything like the elder siblings? at-least till now, it is shaped as a VFR..

      So you agree that Yamaha did mention it as 'Baby M1', right? Contrary to your believe that Yamaha never termed it as 'Baby M1'.

      I also could not stop from commenting.

      Again again, I am saying man...if this thread is to be an only info thread and no arguing/discussion. Then we would be happy to stay away from it.

      As a true fan of Yamaha, we should be open to criticism as well.

      And hell yeah, I expect a lot from Yamaha...I don’t compare it with CBR or Kawasaki or Bajaj or KTM. I don’t want to go that way. Every bike has its pros and cons. I am concerned about only R25. If you want a comparison with different co, let’s start a new thread and I will be happy to discuss.

              You are riding Yamaha bikes for quite a long as per your signature.
              You have got problem if someone says wrong again R25.
              You are ready to spend almost 2.7 to 3 l for a bike.

              ----I thought these could make oneself a fan. Different perspective. So cool.

              Hope to ride together with our R25 ASAP.

                Whoa !! Long discussion and we noobs are getting better insights into R25. Thanks guys.

                BTW, Yamaha did mention it as 'Baby M1' but they also said 'A superbike you can ride everyday'. And, yes they have not designed it for hardcore track racing as we, average / non-professional riders, don't do it everyday. Also, if you look at the 250cc segment it is a premium bike for developing economies and a entry-level bike for developed economies. Most of the buyers/future owners of R25 will not be taking it to track every day. They will use it for the long tours, as we do it on our real track focussed R15V2s, or daily commute. And we all are quite aware of the fact that going for long rides with a track focussed bike does put pressure on our body. So they have gone for a tour focussed bike which will do equally well at those momentary track days. So tubular frame does make sense as the chassis.

                After riding R15 I'm also a big fan of deltabox frame but to have that frame the seat posture would have to be changed which will not allow it to be used for long tours and also being easy in the body.

                As far Yamaha legacy goes, be it tubular or Delta Box frame, the bike will handle superb. So I, personally, have no worries about it. it will be a gem of a bike with superb handling and more than enough power for Indian roads.

                  This is the most controversial thread i have ever visited. Seems like daily saas bahu soaps, just the guys' version of it.
                  Albeit, i read it daily.

                    Actually, more like the Times Newshour debate .. Keeps me hooked..!!

                    In a way, this thread has been quite informative as it has equally supported both praise and criticism.
                    Definately helps in much better understanding of the product by the plethora of knowledge and views echoed by everyone.

                    Cheers.. and yes i love the R25 .

                      Lets not ignite the battles more and move on to the latest news...

                      Mass production of R25 has began in Indonesia and bikes will probably reach dealers(of course dealers in Indonesia and not India) in the 3rd week of July.
                      What I can get out of translated matter is that 4 bikes will reach dealers for display purpose and deliveries may be in August.

                      YIMM Mulai Produksi Massal Yamaha YZF-R25 per 1 Juli 2014, Dikirim ke Dealer Minggu ke-3 Juli 2014, Ke Konsumen Mulai Agustus 2014 | PERTAMAX7.com
                      Confirmed, 4 Unit YZF-R25 dikirim di Dealer Yamaha Magelang Tanggal 15-17 Juli 2104 | ARIPITSTOP

                          Motoroids claims that yamaha imported a 250cc motorcycle for R&D purpose. The declared value is 2.16 lakhs.



                          Lets see when it launches in 2015.
