A nice S class.

Nice S-class indeed. Superleggera class

S001 · 25th April 2011, 23:30

@ Avishar: It was dark grey, WB registered. Yes it had side air intakes. It was definitely a turbo ! cross checked with pictures online. And boy did it take off ! I haven't seen anything quite that fast yet.

@S001 I had posted a pic of Grey Wb registered Turbo before,had found it on the net.But at that time it was said that the car was in pune.So i guess the car had come back to kolkata.

Was it this one?Photo credited to Rishi Bhagat.

Anyone else noticed this car?

Even my son claimed to have seen it on Sunday on th opposite flank somewhere on EM Bypass. I couldn't find it on the rear view.

Yes guys, it was the White FS I guess.
And now, here I have some photos to show.

Hey guys. Spotted 4 beauties cruising around in Salt lake.
2 Hayabusas, 1 R1 and the other one was a CBR I think. They, like any other super car owners of Calcutta are pretty cool and they do pose for photos.

Here is a clip and a pic.

Good to see all the riders wearing proper safety gear! The one on the left looks like a CBR1000RR to me. The one bike out of shot is the one I'd have loved to see, although I'd settle for the Busas as well.

Here's a reference picture for the CBR

Pancham · 27th April 2011, 09:36

THe one out of sight is the Yamaha R1.

THese people are very much safety addicts which is a very good thing. I have always seen them wearing all kinds of gears.

The left most bike is yamaha r1...

The bike on the extreme left is the CBR1000RR. The bike that we cannot see is the R1.

Redline Shooter · 29th April 2011, 15:36

Going by the lines of the fairing i can still say its a R1(the left most bike with the rider in black and red jacket).the edge in the cut,the sharp visior and the tank suggests the same.Do correct me if i am wrong.
