What? You're looking for an R1? |
My ken: they're easier to re-sell.

Well, you live in the land of R1's and Busa's so it should be easy for you to find one. Everyone in Bangalore that I know, has owned both those bikes or wants those bikes or has both the bikes at the same time! :)
My suggestion to you is to go for a comfortable bike since you ride almost everyday. The R1 will be torture after a 900RR. Alternatively, you can also raise the handlebar of the R1 by getting an after-market handlebar set from Helibars.
A small contribution from my side.
Enjoy!
hey,
spotted these bikes along with a raptor on st mark's road.
enjoy !!

Strangely, the canted-forward position works well for my back. I did Bangalore-Chennai non-stop on the Blade and I had not ONE ache or pain or cramp or even stiffness the next day. I get out of my bed with more aches.
BUT I haven't ridden an R1. Nor any other SBK for that matter, so you do raise a valid point of 'suitability'.

Thats exactly what I'm saying, the CBR was more comfortable than the R1 is. When I say raise the handlebar, don't worry, its not going to be like a Bullet or anything. It will be an inch or so, but that makes a big difference.
A limited edition Harley.
Centenary Edition if not mistaken.

I had spotted this honda repsol next to my house a year ago!

i love underseat exhausts
but dosent the pillion literally feel the heat????
spotted this all this bike on my visit to pune
1. VFR 750 - Easily the best kept example in the country. The bike was being serviced and washed hence some panels are missing. Its a '91 and still has the original paint.
2. CBR 600 Hurricane - My ex bike :). Easily one of the best sounding bikes I have heard so I HAD to start it and rev it a bit!
3. Hornet 900 & VFR 800.
4. CBR 400 Hurricane.
