    Subsequently I paid balance amount on 16.10 and the receipt is showing my booking no.D/AQ/815. So there seems to be some confusion about booking nos.
    My Booking Number is D/AQ/825..........oh man, am i the last person

        so when are you getting your delivery? Do we just wait or have to visit the manager and persuade him?

          "When am I supposed to get the delivery" is the most difficult question to answer! I am not sure if we will hear truth if we give a call there

            may be the numbering is other way round, in decreasing order

                  The bike from Chennai with temp registration will cost 276,000 including insurance (I called up Chennai today). When you register the bike in Bangalore, add another 32,500 rupees - that brings the total to 309,000... Round it off to 310,000 after paying the agents and touts at the Bangalore RTO.

                  This excludes transportation from Chennai...

                        This


                        I booked on 9th and my booking number is 811. And he had clearly said i was the second one to be given a call back.

                        Calling the showroom doesnt really do shit.
                        If they dont deliver my bike on 23rd I am cancelling the bike and getting myself an MT01. Its just that MT01 with my noob kinda biking experience would be like ordering a deathwish.

                        when i ride bullet before my bullet was solid condition but i once race with a Ceilo car and my engine size. mechancic say bullet is good bike but no racing. it is good for three people and very powerful.
                        one day when i become rich i but ducati and then I race with cars. not now.

                          I will not get it from Chennai - not if I have to wait for three tortuous months

                          And as sreehari pointed out, I'd have to ride to chennai at a sedate 4000 rpm after the first 1000 kms is over and then the next one at 2000k. Every service will be a full three day affair.

                          I'd rather wait for our friends from Bajaj to be meherban on Bangalore...

                            I will stick with your plans, as I believe that you will take good and mature decisions.

                            I also don't have any other source (help, assist, info) to achieve the target, other than local Bajaj pro-biking showrooms and XBHP members....

                              1) The MT-01 wouldn't kill you. Unless you are a real tool and tries to pull off poser moves in the first week or so of riding it.
                              2) What makes you think you will get an MT-01 faster than what the Bajaj showroom has been promising you for the Ninja? There is NO MT-01 in stock with Yamaha at the moment. If you have the money, and are serious about it, Pay full money, and wait 8 weeks for 1670cc of pure torque.

                                Nothing will kill me if am not being a tool. Its not just about me. Its also about accidents which happen by accident. MT01 with its insane dry weight and hammering torque cannot be a beginners bike especially since I am not only new to the biking scenario but also new to indian roads. But I get your point.

                                I should have elaborated. My bros MT01; which is only 2 to 3 months old. Bugger went back to Australia after that and wont sell it either. He just might end up doing it if i convince him
