| First of all, it was really a good thread indeed; enjoyed the SBK landscape in the India after spending couple of hours surfing here. I'm glad for all SBK owners. No wonder, thread got an excellent rating from me. Keep it up! Following are couple of 'inputs' from my end: Quote:
 Overpricing is subject to the insane Indian duties and other formalities. As I wrote on another thread, people shouldn't buy very high-end SBK or Car in India because of that factor (at least for some time). I thought one shouldn't make comments such as - why someone should buy? Because very product has its own market segment! Say, I've bought one for $30,000 plus in 2005 in California and am very happy with it (a friend of mine some time ago told me that same model costs 3 million INR plus in India but don't know how much it costs now). Same with my Cars in US too. Why all that, remember Indian iPhone launch price compared to the US (even though it comes with an AT&T contract)? or an Intel Core i7-870 Processor price? I've seen a lot of such args. in India right from my kid age; starting with a color TV (Sony vs other Indian brands!). Anyway, such comparisons makes no sense at all. Quote:
You were spot on! People who make light statements against Italian Engineering must watch this TV episode: Discovery - Mega Factories - Ferrari (because lot of hand effort goes into Ducati too). BTW, my crown goes to: #1 Ducati 916 Senna #2 MV F4 Augusta Senna One more on Senna name, for Super Car lovers as well, which I love it a lot even today! Honda NSX, 1994 model (Ayron Senna himself contributed in this car's key Chasis development) Quote:

| i was standing right outside my house talking to my friend about a Hayabusa which came to our colony a few days ago and how i missed clicking its pics, suddenly i hear this unusually loud sound of a sports bike......i turned around and saw a 10-12 year old boy riding a Harley Davidson Sportster!  The boy was followed by his elder brother who owns the bike!!sorry for the bad quality of the pics! Last edited by shyn : 24th November 2010 at 21:17. |
