Well your partly right.. it does belong to a person whose father has a number of business interests.. one of them is being a builder.
Have seen the bike first hand and all I can say is WOW.... sat on it and it felt REALLY comfy.
Now I am comparing it to the yellow and black Vakyrie that I have ridden.
Though I prefer the normal Val... coz its a lil less BLING.. inspite of all its chrome.. but nonetheless the rune is KILLER in black

i am also from vasai.there are a lot of people with sportsbikes here.it is like a craze here(has declined now).if i can remeber correcty there were Ducati 999,Suzuki hayabusa,Honda CBR 900R(2-3 of them),CBR-600,CBR-400, Kawasaki ninja(ZR-9,ZR-12),Yahama Dragstar and Dragstar Gold.that's about all i think.

there are no flashy cars though.i have seen only two e-class(one i see everyday) and one s-class + 1 or 2 landcrusier amazons and prados in nothern vasai.

That's amazing.
I'm not aware of more than a couple of superbikes in the whole of Navi mumbai put together !!!
BTW, if I'm not mistaken the rune was for sale / sold some time back.
