I will echo the emotion which has already been convyed here. Stay away from a grey market import.

Did the owner tell you why he is selling off the bike ?
Dude, raids on illegally imported bikes are talk of the town these days. Maybe he is getting rid of his bike for that reason .....

The reason cinched out was his relentlessness on using the bike, as he is rarely able to take out time for his steed. He is tucked up in his business and the baby is thereby mostly an immovable object in his Parking lot.

As majority, rather everyone insinuated about the grey market bike issues(even I knew the DRI raids being so prevalent, but the excitement massacered my rational thinking) I shall now consider the same.

But then I am left with no option now, holding a meagre 6 lakhs will never fulfill the intricacies of owning a legal one!!

peace is much more valuable and necessary i would say........
infact with the bike you will buy fear,,,,,,

there are many whose dreams arent fulfilled
they dont go the wrong way..........(not talking bout exceptions ofcourse )

if you could collect 6 lakhs
one day you will collect 12 lakhs...........
trust yourself and work for it

no offense neither any lesson
just my view
rest its ur life and you

cheers

Are you a lawyer, scribe or are you simply using a thesaurus to select complicated words to complete your sentences? This is the first time I have come across a writing style that is unnecessarily seasoned with words and flourishes designed to impress...rather than convey any meaningful message. In other words - keep it simple s*****d

Back on topic - grey market 600s are going for 4 lakhs and under in some parts. There is a very good reason for this

stay away...put the 6L towards the downpayment on a legal bike of your choice.

**Hafeexius** · 06-13-2009, 09:06 AM

gsferrari : Even though my head says a disaster is waiting if I buy a grey market 600..the head says screw everything and just enjoy it till it lasts.

Mind if I ask what exactly would happen if the DRI gets wind of the bike? Do they just impound it or would there be other legal complications as well?

Sorry to hijack this thread but does anyone know how much a road legal GSR600 would cost (with all the proper papers and full duty paid) versus a grey market GSR600?

As far as my knowledge goes, because of the ridiculous laws here, even after paying all the duties, the bike would still be 'illegal'. Is that right or do I sound like I'm high on weed?

Hello Sir, Were you really concerned to put forward your view to what I was really seeking, or just a sense of sub-righteousness. I am not a lawyer but indeed I scribble to come up with idioms, articles, poetic paraphrases. If your message would have been notified in the 'Posting Guidelines' of 'What Bike', I should have indeed taken care of your pain. If 'impressing others' was my motto then this would have not been my 4th post for almost 6 months I joined 'xbhp'.
I got 8 replies(excluding yours) which itself conveyed that the message was understood meaningfully, forgive the poor soul if my message(s) burned your head, contradictory still you came with your suggestion which implies you too understood what I proposed through my messages!!

Anyhow I must thank all others(you too indeed) for letting me again choose the right unilateral path when due to par excitement I got deviated.
I will indeed save more and wait to come up with a legal one.

Reminds me of Joyce! Feel like taking out Finnegan's Wake once again and trying it yet once more!!!

Believe me...your language, while suitable for the written medium of expression, will only frustrate in public forums and even in the professional domain. But anyway...

The DRI doesnt need to "get wind" of anything. They have details of every auto component that comes in through any port save for hand luggage. They have a complete list of all dealers, bikes and owners. These are some of the smartest people you will deal with.

600s are illegal in India...non negotiable.

Really 'Ken Cool'!!

The Irish author's use of idiosyncratic language is still a mystery to many geniuses, and no way anyone could redo or match his supremacy. But I appreciate your felicitating gesture.

Surely I will undertake your aforesaid words.
I cancelled my prospective plans to meet the CBR 600RR owner, and intimated him the same by reflecting my concerns.
As for now I will wait and wait till I afford to own a legal one....
