        So you have the NEO (remeber Matrix.... the 1). A very nice write up dude. Coming straight from the core of the heart. Most of us would love to see an 1 standing in our own Garage / house. Hope we all do at some point of time in our life. A 1000cc congratulations to you man. Ride her, feel her & you will get what you always wanted

            Secondly pls don thank me for sharing, i myself have been party to so many travelogues,first impressions, workshops, rider experience etc over the years that I owed it to xbhp.

            You are right, i cannot put those emotions in words. It was out of this world. All i remember now is i had ear to ear smile all the time.
            If you are actually scared, then trust me you would be safe. As for putting your emotions in words, please do share your riding experiences uptil now. How many kms. have you done? How do you feel? What about the public response, at red lights, etc.?
            :)

              Congratulations on owning the R1!

              It was fun to read your experience. And i think you will post more of it as it progresses.

              Cheers!

                Now this is really strange. The Euro/Aussie spec 08 R1 that we get here, is sold with Michelin Pilot Powers. Why does Sandesh's bike in the pics have Pirellis? Mine and almost every other legal R1 I've seen so far (close to 15 now) have PPs.

                Sandesh, check up the VIN number on the frame and post up the manufacturing dates as well. I'm really curious now.

                Guilty as charged. Have been stuck with work and I don't always carry my phone around in my office. SMS me and I'll call you back

                          hearty congratulations mate....i can feel every emotion of yours....even i am saving up every single penny i can...i am still in college and it is more dificult to do so now but still i am doing it as much as i can.....so i know how it feels to you....i think at one moment you would have been worried with your bank balance but the next moment you see your dreambike,even that low account brings out a sense of relief and satisfaction that you desrve it.....

                            Those are in fact, Michelin Pilot Powers. Its pretty obvious in the pictures when you blow them up. The bike is manufactured in 12/07. The tyres are one of the things I have asked them for.

                              @ bladerunner : if its mfg date is 12/07 then i feel that yam is selling its leftover stock over here....

                              hey sandy, did you get any discount from them? someone (Bladerunner to be exact) in akhil's thread was saying that yam is offering a discount of 75k on the one....

                                They have never sold a '08 here. I went there on an official R1 myself and that is also manufactured in 9/07. The sales manager at the showroom didn't know this until I showed it to him.
