Jesus Chirst, R1 has some serious competition in terms of numbers here in India.

Amazing amazing ride bro. I'm not sure how well this no-words-to-describe-this-thing rides but its one hell of a smoking hot beauty. Those eyes, that face, oh that super sexy ass. Man, I'm in love.

Very many many congratulations, wishing you millions of many miles with her.

Thanks, I had the same speechless, not able to describe feeling when i saw its pictures. But you know what its even sexier in person

This has got to be the 4th new SBK in xbhp in 2 weeks. Looks like 2014 is really going to be an exciting year

@atul_chang Congratulations for the meanest looking naked bike in the market. Seriously no words to describe the looks of this bike.
Did you sell the 848 evo??

Cheers

Yes, I sold the evo. The first part of the experience comes in a short while

Okay fine. I'm in love. Again. #Sigh

Remember my ID. Given your history of SBKs (I heard you sold your EVO) 3 years down the line, when you get bored of this bike or the money lying stagnant in your bank account and eventually decide to smoke this one for the then generation, ping me. *Back to opening a savings account*...

I am saving your id up. The thing is that I always seem to get a good price for my superbikes. To put things in persepctive, for the price difference, i could not have hired an alto. So yes I do need prospective buyers 3 years down the line

Thats awesome atul.

So you done away with the ducati and the aggressive track days??

I wish, but did not want to keep a track tool for 365 days when all i did was 3 to 4 track days. This one will hold me just fine on the track days.

Will be waiting eagerly. In the review, please let us know how stiff the suspension is on this bike. I have read everywhere that the suspension is quite stiff. Is it ok for our roads? And how stiff is it compared to a Duke 390? Also do tell if you felt any vibrations throughout the range and especially at 7-8K rpm. I know you are still running her in, but if you have revved her to that point, did you feel any vibes? And if yes then how harsh/annoying are they compared to the Duke? Also it would be lovely if you could compare the low end torque on this thing to an 848 and the duke too

Thanks a lot in advance and enjoy the beast.

Re: The Alien has landed. Welcoming my Z1000

That I am. It has been a crazy time. Was in delhi for two weeks. Missed the bike so much that I have been riding it day in n day out ever since I returned. The first servicing done. Sure enough it was me at the jnpt toll.
