suggest me please..

Hey Shiv, I do not suggest that either, its just that there are a lot members who must b thinking in the same direction as i am right now.. i just need a few clarifications thats about it. i have heards that 60 out of 100 bike (or may b more) which are currently ridden on roads are illegal (I MAY BE WRONG), but i am in a dilemma whether to go for a illegal bike or shed out a few 100Ks more (which i cannot) to fulfill this passion..

Thanks again

Hey buddy, you know what, one of my uncles (actually, dad's chaddi buddy) is a DRI (Directorate Of Revenue Intelligence) official (Even i wish to be one someday). So give me your address, i will send him to you after you buy a gray and you will come to know what happens with a gray bike.

Dont worry, i wont, btw, he was once telling me about a hayabusa 2004 that he confiscated from a karjat farmhouse, belonged to a high profiled neta (i cant reveal the name), they also beat up the owner if they offer bribes, and the owner had to finally shell out 12 lacs, just for fine, duties etc. and additional 30K for offering bribe.

And yes, its not wise to put up such posts on xbhp, as i guess there may be sniffers too on xbhp. So be careful of what you erite, can be used as a proof against you someday.

As you are already set to pay 5 lacs(even for grey market bike) and then some more (bribe + some registration) why dont you add 2.5lacs in it. ... in 7.5 lacks you definitely can get used+legal 600(inline 4) bike. our Indian roads are not that much developed where you can use full power of liter class bike(yet good to have 1000+cc) but 60 0cc(inline 4) will be much better and as you said you are new to sports bike segment you will even learn that how to handle and use these bikes. and after some years you can sell and add some more vitamin M and can fulfill your liter class thrust..

in short

Illegal = DRI fear + Bike seizure fear + Bribes + Bounded in boundries + Selling problem
Legal = Zooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooom
