Hey Johny,

Great bike to have fun in. Get used to the bike before you go over 150. The wind can be deadly on those speeds on a naked.

Congrats JB on buying the torque beast. Which other color options where available?

And, what was the OTR in Delhi? Have a great and safe ride. Do try riding the bike with full gear at all times.

I am more than 100% sure that they will not be available in Delhi or indeed in most cities abroad like Singapore or Dubai. Your best bet is Europe - this bike was sold mostly in Europe. Canada and Australia are other options.

Get a mini touring screen please if you plan to ride at > 100 kmph and still remain on the bike.

No the exhausts are Yamaha, still costly because they are titanium end cans.

OE upgrade through Yamaha is Akrapovic. AFAIK Yoshimura doesnt make end cans for this one - you need to go to Akrapovic (through Yamaha or otherwise), Sato Racing, Over Racing or Steintune for aftermarket cans.

11.15AM Only Black Yeah I have got a hang of Helmet. I cant think of riding my Rocket w/o a Helmet ! As the helmet is quite Tight & make me feel secure & keep the tears away from rolling out of eyes on High Speeds as the viser keeps the wind off my face )

Certainly BRO ... Helmet is one real IMPORTANT ACCESSORY !

I thank you all for all your views & wishes.

I have started loving the Traffic light more than ever; as when i hold the horses stay put ... I get the most envious look form folks around. Woah man i feel like a star & wonder how much do the Film start enjoy or hate such attention (un-invited of-course)

I feel bit nervous when i am trucking the bike forward or backward to park in place as i feel i will loose the balance 7 bike might skid or fall. I am 80+ 5'7" ! But when the Rocket is on move or even on prowl I feel it so light ! I really love the sound the beat & loud thump. It can be heard from a distance & one is bound to turn around the glance at it.

cheers: To Yamaha for making MT01 available in India !

Congrats Johnny, awesome bike. Just a small Q, the way the silencers are placed isnt there a chance that the Silencer gets hot and scorches the pillion's legs?

Very nice bike!! Please don't mod the handles and all that. You'll get yourself killed or worse - hurt the bike
Get yourself some good riding gear and drive safe.
