    But it depends when are you going. I am definitely not going on the weekend because of the mad rush. I am planning to take off on 9th December, so I intend to land in Delhi on Sunday evening, stay a night at the hotel, see the show in premium hours on Monday when the crowd is thin and leave around four-ish for the airport.
    Sorry bluevolt, I am already booked to fly out on 7th morning. Will go only on Sunday 8th Jan. I know of the rush, have experienced the hustling/jostling. Many are just there to collect brochures.

              I've prepared a list of 2 wheelers MYSELF which can be expected to be seen (seen, not necessarily "launched") at the Auto Expo, based on the news that I post on Xbhp. The ones in Red Color are the ones expected to be launched at the Expo:

              India Yamaha: A couple of lightweight Scooters, upto 2-3 different models maybe. And FZ 250.

              TVS: A New Model of TVS Apache RTR, not necessarily a bump in "cc's" but could be other changes too. One concept bike expected for judging public response.

              KTM: Duke 200 CC, and probably RC8R, SuperDuke 990, etc. I personally don't expect to see Duke 690, but who knows the 2012 model of Duke 690 might make it, since it is more "India suitable" now?

              Kawasaki: Z1000SX, Ninja 650 2012 model,

              Bajaj: The Upgraded Pulsar, based on KTM Duke's platform. Some 3 wheelers confirmed too but that's not what we discuss here.

              Suzuki: A commuter scooter, a 250cc cruiser/ streetbike, and probably some 600cc bikes for judging response, GSXR 1000 2012 model.

              Honda: CBR 600F, CBR 1000RR 2012 model, a new 100cc bike with a rural commuter focus, and a new scooter too.

              Hero MotoCorp: The Impulse, The Maestro Scooter, plus the usual range. Chances are that we'll see some international range of bikes from Honda stables just to judge response.

              Ducati: 795 Monster. The complete range of bikes sold here, plus a display of 1199 Panigale.

              Triumph: Upto 4-5 models from their international portfolio. Street Triple, Daytona 675, Speed Triple R, etc. Rocket III might be on display but shouldn't be released this soon.

              Mahindra: Stallio 100cc, and probably a bike in the 135-150cc category too, likely to be named Stallio itself.

              Royal Enfield: Thunderbird 500, Some international color variants of their Classic range of bikes probably. Desert Storm, etc. And their present range.

              Polaris/ Victory Motorcycles: Few cruisers from the international portofolio, importable in CBU form.

              Piaggio/ Aprilia: RSV1000R could be there, some below 200cc scooters too, but don't have much idea about Aprilia.

              Here's the list of participants:

                    Thanks Sunny bro. It was just a rough list of my personal expectation, which is based on companies' Attendance on the Auto Expo Official Page, plus the News from the past 1-2 years and the major decisions the companies made and their officials' media comments.
                    BTW I just gave that post a minor-update.

                    @ jalva: Thanks man.

                          Thanks bro. I can't confirm but most probably its on!

                          I'll have a talk with some of my friends from the Rajasthan Offline G2G Team: Digvijay, Ram, Devvrat, etc. and then if they go, I'm going! Wish to see you there...

                              Nothing to watch out from the Suzuki stable. Theyre only gonna display their existing bikes and the Intruder. Read that somewhere yesterday
                              Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

                                No Hyosung in the list below! I hope that's a mistake. I was expecting to see GT250R in the Auto Expo.
