    But then wudn't it be a sight, grocery bags hanging from the two sides of a fully faired green bike !!

    Even I'd get that one at 2.5 laks !! But I still think 2L wud have been a perfect price for the bike !! Now I'll hv to dig into the money I had kept aside for some modifications I had in mind !!

      I am in Bangalore bro. Sorry man I dont think there will be a TD of the RTR now but if Bajaj keeps up its promise, I promise you an ownership experience of the Ninja 250
      Well,a true ninja fan just say..Bajaj is following footsteps of Ferrari, where owners are given delivery after 2 long years(Joke)
      Bro, get one and i am flying down there for a TD

        heh heh, yeah plastic bags on each RVM would really be a sight.
        Yeah 2L would have been perfect, 3L would be stretching it a bit for me as well. The thing is its not just the price of the bike, but the riding gear which would then be needed as well (helmet,jacket,gloves), which would mean another cool 50K or so.

          Considering I already have an Aquila, i already got all the gear , helmets etc !! What I wanted to invest in were woodcraft clip ons, M4 free flow exhausts and better tyres !! There are some cool flush fit indicators too, but I'd be wary to spend 100 $s one something that might crack even at the lightestg fall !!

              @wings of fury -- sure man anytime
              @sukant-- now thats a real dilemma. Would love to see your bike sometime man,

              Ok so now the update, after calculating all finances I get to a point where i just might be able to spend about 70K to get a grocery bike (now that has to be exciting too) so went for a test ride of the menace and LOVED it. Monday is when I go again and maybe just pick it up from the TVS guy on inner ring road for 73k approx. ANy checks I need to perform to make sure its a new bike I am getting? He has promised me a new grey one withoug waiting period for 100% cash payment and number next day.

                    Thanks Himanshu. I thought of waiting for the Ninja initially but then one cant make it a grocery bike and parking is becoming more of a pain each day, especially in these small markets. The decision for the test ride was made after spending almost 30 mins to find a parking spot for a 5 minute errand.
