Just went through that. Pretty interesting stuff. Most of these guys are quite astounded to see cows and bulls and animals in the middle of the road and having right of way by law!
i am really disapointed that out of all these beautifull things by which our delhi is surrounded,he only posted the pics of those cows and on road vendors....i hope he must have seen many other nice and picfull views on his way to the showroom......anyway......really a nice job by u and arya da....nice to see how u manage to cover up all these things....u ppl really encourage us to do more in life...sigpic

Today i visited the showroom the where these beauties are housed. The 1198 and 848 are really gorgeous bikes. The sales person was very friendly. He explained about all the bikes pretty well. I asked him if he could turn the 848 and 1198 on so i could hear there exhaust notes, WOW, what a note, i have heard a 999 exhaust before and it seems pale in comparision to these beauties. I am planing to buy a superbike soon and 848 is a strong contender but is the extra 3.5 lakh worth it ?, i mean its got less power (in the sense that i would like to use it on the track that is coming up in Delhi in the near future) and only thing (i can see) its better than the 1000 is in style-which it has loads.Last edited by Raoul Black; 12-22-2009, 07:59 PM.Four wheels move the body.

I work with these guys all the time. This is what they photograph in India, roadside vendors, cows on the roads, polythene bags strewn on the streets, littered garbage all around, beggars and so on...Originally posted by Reever View PostThe Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

Even the legendary Nick sanders comments weren't very polite,
as they say, when you meet your heroes you feel disheartened as you find them either very ordinary and not upto expectations,
but here, lets keep it to the point that Nicky came and we met him,
what matters is how he races, don't we balk when foreigners kiss openly or some other things which isn't a part & parcel of India?
lets keep this thread about Ducati launch, i know it hurts when you hear something bad about our country, but its their perspective, we might have different about theirs,
no Americans, Europeans are used to see cows on their so such reaction, its usual if you look at this from their point of view...simple!
my two centsComment

I wonder if India is ready for these kind of motorcycles (Japanese supersports and HD included) - while I believe there are enough roads to enjoy these machines on, India is still a place where you cannot leave a bike like that unattended for 5 minutes before people start fidgeting around with your bike, not to mention frequent instances of vandalism. The concept of 'other people's property' is non-existent in India. Contrast this to developed countries, where no one will even touch your bike without your permission (criminals excluded).
If I owned a 848 in India, I would be very uncomfortable leaving it in a public parking and going to watch a movie or go for a dinner. Luxury cars are different, since they remain locked, and seem to have a higher degree of intimidation than motorcycles.
I will own the entry level Ninja 250 soon, and when I get it, I will use a disc lock alarm with motion sensor, a full size waterproof cover locked to my bike with a monstrous cable lock. And this in MY apartment parking, not in a public area.

i think the most practical offering from ducati for india is the Hypermotard, Monster series for its explotiable performance. 848 for the same reason and the sports classic series.Comment
