    Err.. actually the Ninja 250R with its twin cylinders, with its 30-33 Ps, liquid cooled engine manages to reach a top whack of 160 kmph.

        I feel it's not a marketing Gimmick. On the net, there are NO such quotes as mentioned below:-->

        If Mr. Tripathi did say that, there should have been more quotes on internet news. I feel mydigitalfc.com should be given the same status as blogs & ********, when it comes to reliability...

        However, Bike India said, "ONE" of the Fastest. and R1 can be it.
        What could be the price? Any guesses?

              Guys it's definitely the 09' R1 as Yamaha has to fend off competition from the Blade & Autocar is definitely spot-on with most of their scoops and news. Maybe the mods could rename the thread topic or split it?

                  i second that

                  its got fat tires.. so not a 250cc etc bike (not r125 either) & looking at the wide front fairing and high rear seat tail.. its definitely a supersport (not cruiser - hence not VMax) its definitely a 09 R1..

                    I hope the common indian biker can afford to own and run it. That would pleae me.

                      The BI pic in the link above looks fake. Looks like some bike was covered, pic taken, and the pic taken, eg: this Yammie R1 Concept (look at the shadows on the tires) and nicely edited in PS and put up on site as a scoop. But as far as the news is concerned with respect to 'launch of one of the fastest production bikes in the world' its got to be the 09 R1 but if its something else wholly for the Indian market (which i doubt) then its good news!

                      But as far as the news scoop is concerned looks fake to me. And i guess the speculations can rest awhile till something concrete takes place.

                              Ashish bhaisahab! Please read the confirmed news shared by Ken bhaiya... It is the 2009 R1.

                              Maybe bold letters should get attention of non-attentive users:->

                              2009 R1 would be released!!

                              Phew! That should do it ...

                                Well then thats that....09 R1 is def the fastest litre bike,..if you refer the international tests,..it does have way faster 0-150-0 time than the blade etc,...but i was really hoping for a beefy cruiser like the Warrior,..to take on the suzuki and the harley
