Yup Speedy. I met him as well. Though why did he change to red? Does he still own it? And when you say changed, do you mean painted or bought a complete new set? And is it the same 999 they use in the Nokia ad?

sorry my bad when the bike came down it was red and as there were rumours of another red being imported and for the sake ok exclusivity he changed it to yellow not painted a new set was brought in for him. the bike was sold with the odo reading of 150 or 175. the owner at the time of the drag is the second owner. my friend being short and plump found it uncomfortable and bought the V-rod. he sold the V-ROD also within a month of getting it with again a low odo reading and for the same uncomfortable excuse. he was planning at that time to get the beuller dont know what happened to that.

it is a kawasaki ZX1400 and not a GSX 1400 ajay, if i know the basics of bikes right.
the one one posted by manish, if that is what you are talking off, there are two in bombay that i know off.

I've not seen many ZZR1400s here, and it looks like many of these are springing up in B'lore.!!

Looks devilish!

The drag Busa certainly has changed quite a few hands in a short while. Pity though, that none of them have been able to achieve what that bike is really capable of (?) I remember seeing it in Bangalore after it was sold to the guy in Bombay. So I guess its back in Bangalore?

Speedy, there are two such bikes, i.e. blue and balck thunderace.
One of them is the one posted by Rt, and another was a bombay bike (MH 01), this one went to Ahmedabad in the first half of 2005.
I am pretty certian about this as i rode the one from Bombay through the Speedrun 2005 weekend, just when the other one from down south was here too for the weekend.

manson i dont doubt your knowledge at all. i remember seeing the blue and black thunderace from when i was looking to buy my first bike and that is why i mentioned i think it is the same.i was sold on the colour schemeas it is my favourite colours but the price did not suit me. i have limited knowledge of bikes and the little that i know is thanks to my biker friends in bombay. i am basically a car person.
