Rossi R6 In Town!!!!

iceman91 · 13th July 2005, 21:00

Well had the pleasure of being the first to check it out!!! a brand new 2005 ROSSI R6 LIMITED EDITION. it had the yellow combination and is owned by SHABIR....he has imported it for sale. poor guy got it to java city and the cops came behind him and caught him...they were basically looking for reasons to fine him. first they asked him to rev it hard as the bike was loud...but were dissapointed since it had the original exhaust and was softer than even an indian bike!!! then they started their usual, it is not registered yet, riding fast etc. etc.

bike is a dream..has the comple set of ROSSI decals and the front is exactly like the race bike with the "DOCTOR" and 46 written in huge.
was a dream to ride...after that getting home on my rd350 was like riding some slow bike!!!!

THE SUN SIDE AND THE MOON SIDE AS IT IS KNOWN AS:

its nice to hear. Shabbir seems to be mostly selling special editions.

I agree with the comparison with the Rd350. High performance bikes give the thrill and adrenaline rush like no other. Acceleration is mind blowing.

v1p3r · 15th July 2005, 11:37

Some people have all the luck! You get to check out the latest addition to Shabbir's arsenal, and then complain that your RD seems slow!! <VERY jealous>

Seriously, it must have been awesome. What did you clock? Or was it just a small spin?

powerslave12r · 21st July 2005, 19:33

Thanks for the info.

Honda should seriously look into providing CBUs..

What did you do with the bike? How fast could you manage to go?

sridhar24 · 21st July 2005, 20:01

Wow thats an awesome bike, wonder who's gonna be that lucky guy buying it

Sid Schumacher · 21st July 2005, 20:10

Now thats a beauty....lucky guy..that Shabbir

karthik247 · 21st July 2005, 22:26

thats a really hot paint job...it simply rocks. But wasn't it launched at the beginning of this year?

Please inform him that both are not available till oct. So if he is going specifically for this he will be wasting his time. IF you want can give you no of HONG LEONG. They are the Yamaha dealers in Singapore.

EVO6 · 22nd July 2005, 12:18

Yep going to them itself ... Can u please give the number... So we can call and confirm ...
Lets see if he is willing to change his option from Rossi to Normal R6
Thanx for the info ..
Cheers

Hey, that's one snazzy bike.
Any idea about the price he's expecting for it ?

speedfreak7116 · 26th July 2005, 17:54

Hey Iceman is this the Shabbir from Rest House Road or the guy from Mosque Road who lives in Banaswadi? I've heard the rest house road guy has a nice bike collection...I know the mosque road Shabbir quite well...been his neighbour since childhood till he shifted to banaswadi....he gets down some neat bikes too...He brought down a brand new Ninja for speedrun 2005 and smoked a hayabusa with it....

nitrous · 28th July 2005, 15:13
