its nice to see bikes allowed on Yamuna Expressway. Is there a lower limit in cc or all bikes are allowed? I hope Maharashtra allows something similar on Pune Mumbai expressway. may be 200cc plus bikes.

Re: Superbikes spotted in India

The Mumbai-Pune expressway has a horrible, skiddy surface that would be dangerous for most bikes...

Vivek the Mumbai Pune expressway has some part as tar road and some as concrete. I am sure Yammuna Expressay will not be any different than this. Infact other highways like NH4 etc also have similar surface. I can understand during monsoon but dry season should not be a issue.

Re: Superbikes spotted in India

Dude Vtec, knowing India, there won't be a "lower limit" on the bike's cc or power so we'll soon have families of 5 trundling along at 30 kmph, sharing space with Porsches and Mercs. The surface is not a problem to the imports but will definitely pose a problem for our desi mopeds with their skinny, "long-lasting" tyres, LOL.

Re: Superbikes spotted in India

Cochin has got Kerala's first Aprilia RSV4 Factory, that too with Racefit Growlers.

Taste!

Uh oh, any serious damage?

The person who bought this is pretty knowledgeable about bikes, so I don't think anyone fooled him into buying a lemon. Still.

Anyway, here is a pics of the RSV4 pyro-show

Re: Superbikes spotted in India

I was in Goa during India bike week (1st week of Feb 2013). These pictures were taken on 30th Jan evening in front of Cape Town Cafe, Tito's Lane. Was fun to be there at that time.

Re: Superbikes spotted in India

Spotted this at Wilson Garden a couple of weeks back.

Nice sounding pipes - Devil exhausts.

Also spotted the KTM RC-8 at the Indranagar KTM Store. It is not on sale but on display only.
