  • Confussseddd !!! Which superbike to buy ???

    Dear guys .
    Help me in sorting out this dilema .Really very confused between yamaha R1 and cbr fireblade .. im a sturdy young man , of height 5.8 feet . Currently I ride cbr 250r , prior to that i was riding pulsar 150 and then duke 200 . U know , riding has been my passion since I was a student of class 10 .I love bikes and always wanted to buy sbk and finally now im determined to own my coveted dream bike . But having a lot of choices at hand and googling their specs has indeed put me in greatt puzzle . So i thought it would be best to seek valuable advise from senior and experienced players . One may also suggest any bike which u think best between 600cc to 1000cc. I welcome your valued words

    Query Approved

    No disrespect meant at all, but have you ridden a litre class superbike? That is a lot of money you will be spending, make sure that such motorcycles are what you would want in your garage.

    Cheers and all the best

      Cbr1000rr is the best superbike to start with. It's super refined. Easy to handle do not plant power on the crank as the other liter class bikes do.
      Yamaha R1 the best looking in class is a little too chunky. The cross plane crankshaft gives it but more grunt whenever you open the throttle but the heating issues are still there.
      Suzuki GSXR one of the loved bikes have everything you need but as it's been a while that it's been the same in the market and seems quiet outdated with the equipment package comes with it.
      Kawasaki Zx10r the best liter class bike if you are looking for track days, it comes with a ton of equipments and electronics (some also compare it with s1000rr) and the best value for money bike at this time.
      Bmw s1000rr the beast if you have the urge to spend a little over 33lakhs
      Happy biking

        How about Ducati 899? Or Gsxr 750? If speed is not ur concern then these 2 can beat the superbikes a run for their money in handling and maintenance.

        Try Gsx r 750. Its a 750cc chassis with a detuned 1000cc engine.

          But I believe it's not a legal import here. On the other hand 899 is an awesome price of engineering but due to after sales service it's too bad choice, I guess the Mumbai showroom is also closed now.

              Not a experienced rider of a litre or 600cc SBK, but I've heard lot from many that CBR1000RR is a best machine to start with from liter class if you have not ridden one in past

                And one more thread opens.
                Its a sbk , its a personal choice, someone who knows sbk and want to actually buy it, will go for the one that suits his pocket and his purpise of riding. [MENTION=73799]Jagzxbhp[/MENTION] : All the bikes you mentioned are not available legally in India.
                And as per your comment, these bikes are not fast? Are you kidding me.

                  They are fast but a 750cc will be slower than a litre bike no. My bad didn't knew that KTM rc 1190 is not available in here.

                    Depends what "fast" means to people. Ride some of the super sports and you will know. And regarding KTM its clearly mentioned on their website.
