      It looks like honda cb750 to me. If I remember it correctly this bike was ranked among one of the top ten bikes. There is a myth that its that vibe-free that if a glass of water is placed on the bike and revved not even a drop will be spilled.

      • i guess its the honda cb 750 but on a diffrent exhaust manifold.....the origonal had 2into1into2 exhaust

        • I don't have pics of it but I've seen it often around Malleswaram area in Bangalore. This scooter that looks really BIG, quite similar to eterno but it doesn't have eterno written on the side, exhaust sounds louder than eterno and must be long stroke 4-stroke as it thumps like a mini bullet. Which scooter is it any idea ?

          • Guys, a colleague's query at office has left me puzzled.
            He saw a big bike last Saturday at MG Road (Bangalore).

            His description was:-
            1. A BIIIIIGGG bike! Veeery thick tires. His words - fatter than a truck tires.
            2. It had at least 4-5 saddle bags ties to it.
            3. He says it was NOT a naked bike. (though not 100% sure)
            4. The rider's hands were not visible. Apparently they were within the fairing. (Assuming the bike was faired)
            5. Most importantly, the bike was as large as an auto!
            6. He says that there was a girl sitting behind too. Hence, HDs are eliminated.

            I showed him the pics of faired as well as naked SBKs/Cruisers but he denied them all.
            Bikes I showed him:-
            1. Busa
            2. Goldwing
            3. Ninja ZX xxRs
            4. Yammie MT01
            5. Suzuki Intruders (800/1800)
            6. Hyosung ST7

            I'm confused. Anyone has any idea?

                Nope. He denies it. Showed him the Beemer's pic now.
                Just hope it wasn't a modified bike. We'd never come to know!!!

                      Might be, but the ride is on a Bullet if I'm not wrong, but his friend seems to be smitten by a Super Bike...

                          Anant bhai, he didn't see a BMW/Bullet.

                          Let me quote his words:-
                          "Wo badi badi bike thi. Jaise tumhaari bike ka headlight area bada sa hai na, wo bada sa sheesha laga hua hai saamne me aur side se dhaka hua hai, wo bike waisi hi thi. Bas, aur badi thi."

                          Translation - It was a big bike. Like your bike, it had a big glass like part in the front (read visor) and was covered from the sides (read fairing). But it was bigger!"


                          I have a KariZMR.
                          That means he saw some faired alien!

                            Sounds like the KTM 990 I've seen in Bangalore a few times with a girl on the back.

                            The F800GS pictures are from their China ride, in India, Colin and Ryan are riding two RE Thunderbirds with a Bolero as a back-up vehicle.
