Re: Superbikes spotted in India

Triumph dealer West Coast had a launch party at Mariott, Ahmedabad yesterday. Nice set of wheels seen in and out of the launch venue.

Spotted a CB 900 in richmond town,bangalore a couple of days back. In a maroon and off white combo the bike was a stunner to look at. I could not click any pics as i was driving.

Re: Superbikes spotted in India

Was on reclamation with a friend enjoying the beemers and mercs zooming past, when 2 superbikes a GSX1000r and a Fireblade screamed past us towards sea-link. They were literally red-lined and the sound was just too much. (they easily touched 220-230 before braking)

We left from the spot after 15 minutes and taking the under-pass were going towards Lilavati, just when I saw the two rounded up by the usual nakabandi. I waited for them to roll, gave them a thumbs up for their guts to ride so fast and was trailing them just when a group of SBK's from the opposite side whizzed past us near Lilavati. The Gixxer and Ceeber also took a U-turn and joined them; and I also did :P again trailing them and enjoying the sweet exhaust notes.

They exchanged pleasantries till reclamation and then the group of SBK's bid goodbye and MAN! The sound of 2 ceebers a VFR1200F and 1-2 more SBK's filled up the night and soon the previous two bikes also waved at us and went screaming onto the Western Express Highway.

A Sunday well-spent

Did you go for a ride with a CBR 600? I think I saw your pics on the net.

Oo. Are both of them fitted with Racefit exhausts? Or only one of them is?
That Fireblade is just too too too loud. I haven't heard such a loud exhaust on an SBK ever.

The Gixxer guy also had an argument with the cops, and I think they were fined too, right? Why was it? Was it cuz of the sound?

1 more question Sir, are SBK's allowed on Sea-link?

They are both fitted with the Race fit. Yes that she is..but there are bikes louder than her in the city.

The cops have a habit to harrass SBK owners as they think owners will get scared and pay them something all the time, easy targets i would say. It would be due to the sound as thats what most guys are caught for. I was not there, so cannot say if they were fined or let off without a fine.

No bike is allowed on the sea link, but you do have (plain clothed and uniformed) cops riding on sea link to cut short their travel time.

Re: Superbikes spotted in India

Spotted this in front of Willingdon club today evening. Wish the owner used a better lid though. Pardon the picture quality, was in a bit of a hurry.

Re: Superbikes spotted in India

Spotted this On Sunday Afternoon at the Sadashivanagar BP bunk. Looks stunning. Did not have a chance to stick around till it was fired up.
