      The only possible and wild guess would be the 2009 R1..But is the new one the "Fastest" in its segment?

        I'll have all fingers crossed for the V-Max (not that I'll ever be able to afford it, but still!!!)

          Its my dream bike too but its not coming cheap thats for sure,its coming for around 27-29lacs.Hopefully we can get its DNA in 150-250cc as it is in the case of R15,FZ16 & Fazer.

            Even I saw this report in BI. I just hope it is a 600cc, say YZF R6.
            If it is a 600, it might just come down to Ajmer. Seriously, I'm Not Kidding.


            Bike India says, "one of the fastest" which may include anything above 250 kmph, ain't it?
            So, My guesses in expectancy order are R6, FZ1 & R1 '09.
            From the Pic in Bike India, I think it can't be V-Max ...

              R6 cannot be brought to India yet I think. The emission regulations thing(accepting euro 3 regulations for 2 wheelers) was for bikes larger than 800cc, and therefore, there is no regulation for the 501-799 cc category as yet

                i think its the V Max or maybe the FZ1, there were suppose to launch it soon from what i last heard, but i still think and hope the new V Max, would be really great, this would really show that yamaha is very serious about india with the big bike segment

                  I don't think V-max is the fastest bike in the world. It has 200 bhp but top speed is not 300+ i think.

                    the 2009 vmax is said to be the fastest accelerating bike in the world i think 0-60 is about 2.6 seconds

                          The next news on the forum is gonna be "Yamaha has decided to delay the Launch of the Fastest Bike in the world in India" That will be due to technical reasons.. no less.. because, the fastest bike in the world is in fact a Suzuki.. not a Yamaha..

                          Chill people.. Yamaha isnt launching anything in India very soon.. at least nothing "FASTEST" is coming before 2010.. Just might be a new R15 with 7th gear to allow it to reach 164kmph thus making it the fastest 150 ever...

                          On the optimistic side, they might just launch the R125(Fastest 125 in India) at 80k OTR.. just to compete with the Stunner Fi in the "performance overpriced 125" segment. (No offends to stunner Fi owners.)

                            nice!

                            ^ "Performance Overpriced 125 Segment" hahahahahahahahaaa!!

                            I don't think the R125 will come here...it costs MORE than an R15. (But looks way better)

                              what i think is....
                              since they were talking abt the 220--250cc segment,yammy might be talking abt a bike fastest in THAT segment,i.e maybe a party pooper for Ninja 250?

                                Found this thread very funny, dont ask me why!

                                People here are comparing R1 to Busa & Ninja14R, gone nuts or what!

                                Fastest in the world, c'mon, not a yamaha atleast, some misinterpreted line I guess!!!

                                After fastest Indian thingy, people gone mad I think, berserk!!!

                                & people plz define FASTEST: is it the 0-60 or the TOP end or both??? I guess BOTH...
