Though this is an Race Bike - it is officially available to ride in the indian roads.
It costs more than 10 lakh not subsidiary for the ordinary indian bikers - but real bike enthusiasts can afford this.
This cannot be ridden in low speeds of 50 in city traffics if then the bike gets ruined easily - as there will be cooling fans available - the engine gets heated up highly and the fans will begin to run.
The aveage speed that needs to be maintained is above 100 - to keep the engine good.
It is easily available in the YAMAHA show-rooms in the main cities of INDIA.
OCTANE petrol needs only to be used - ordinary petrol will again ruin-engine heavily.
No bike in India can still beat R1 - it is better to say that there is no road available to make this challenge in INDIA........ though Ducati is faster then this.
Many enthusiastic indians has bought this bike - you can see them in the following link.
Imagine our 150cc or 220cc pulsar against an 1000cc R1.
