The 2011 Bike Launch speculation Thread

[sooraj_vs]

Thanks a ton Vaibhav..

Somehow I feel like this bike has got bigger things under the seat. Definitely over 22 bhp. (Or atleast hope so)

[rharish90]

Oh man! Just when I was thinking of booking an R15 this comes up!

BTW, here in Bangalore we can send a SMS to some RTO number and get the details of the vehicle and owner name along with cc and bhp. This is to aid the victims in hit and run cases. Is such a feature available in UP too where this one is registered?

is it only me who feels Tail Light is ugly?
Looks good from side but from 1st photo, its looks bad. more like xcd 125 ish.

these pics somehow disheartened me too as well bike's looking small again..according to me Ceeber guys can relax now

[anush]

i agree the tail light looks ugly and i wonder how its registered?

[Raneet]

I have just posted a link about R15 replacement which published by BSmotoring last week [which was locked]

it says its a replacement for R15 and could produce 24-25bhp power and the cost some where 1.6lac [u can check bsmotoring]

in that case ... @Vaibhav have to tell how the bike in 120km speed .. [struggling or easy go or zoomed past him]

Man i wish he would have clicked from the side .. so that we could have read wt written on front side fairing [R15...R17...etc...etc]

i feel the bike tail looks much better than the existing one... adding LED tail to the bike will help saving power and add looks... i was like shocked when i first time heard R15 comes with 3.5Amp battery from company just for the sake of weight reduction... :O i mean even UG2 pulsars came with 9amp... anyways, 1 thing i feel, the new R15 should have been made a bit bigger atleast.. i mean i didn't buy R15 just because R15 felt too small when i rode it and my height is just 5.9 feet...

this is the best i could manage........

Thanks buddy!!!

The bike indeed looks small again!!!
and he's a smart chap....to remain unnoticed the number plate's put on with TC number such that it will look like just another number plate......

Did anyone notice..? This bike has different alloys from wat was seen earlier.

yeah even i was wondering..alloys seems to be different then that pic..

[xionite]

i tried to read wat ws written on the side bt there ws nthing written there.........
n the bike ws very stable at that speed. the rider ws sitting upright it didn't seem that the bike ws strugling. also after some time he ducked and went faster n ws out of sight withing seconds.

are u saying the guy bolted from 120kmph n was gone in seconds?

how many seconds did he take before he was out of sight?
what was the distance he covered once he took off from 120kmph??

what car were u in? y didn't you try n catch up?

i agree the tail light looks ugly

u're prolly the only person in the world who thinks that.

i hope the final bike comes with the R125 ones.

[Krish1417]

Probably its the R17 with 21-22 bhp.Got this info from a very reliable source
Pricing would be close to 1.3lakhs!

[xxbomb]

u're prolly the only person in the world who thinks that.
.

Not!....me too thinks so..:/... it def needs improvement. The curves on the rear section is good..but the lights look kinda cheap..

[Vaibhav Saigal]

completely agree with you dude...btw you should see them ride or drive especially when they know their are being chased by shutter bugs!!!!
Couple of months back the TATA ARIA was tested on NH-4, the test driver had gone nuts when he saw me taking pictures of draped crossover!!!

All we can do is wait and see what they are upto...

that's exactly what happened today. wen the guy noticed me taking pictures he just ducked and vanished........

1. yes he was.
2. i guess that wasn't the right time to switch on he stop watch.
3. wasn't equiped well enough to calculate that.
4. i was driving an m800. i guess that answers the next question as well.

I wish you had been riding a Pulsar 220F at that time and keep track of him while greeting him "Hunto"

Anyway, the number plate is a UP registration,it is definitely the Yamaha's factory bike, their factory is located in UP only.......not meant for public, that bike.
