At last Yamaha Launches the R1

Ashish posted that the Dainik Jagaran (hindi newspaper) has an article about Yamaha launching the R1 in india. If you are conversant with hindi, the link is below :
* Dainik Jagaran - R1

The english translation by yours truly ... leaving out the parts about the 125cc bikes is as follows :

Safai, 21 dec : Yamaha motors india pvt ltd has a deal with the
yamaha motor company. According to that, the international models of
yamaha bikes will now be available in India. This information was
given by the MD Sales CS Bakshi.

At the safai fair he said that these models are powerful, high
capacity and have a sport look. They were also shown in the film
Dhoom. In the fair, he said that the all black 125cc gladiator was
much liked. The cost is 51000, but with 10,000 discount it is
available for 41,640. ....

side bar has the following info :
Yamaha has launced a bike - model R1 - for 12L rupees. It weighs
190kgs, and max speed is 400kms (vibhu : 400 ???). CS bakshi said they
are showcasing the bike to make people aware of the international
models (umm yeah. we dont know what the bikes are).

The actual link for the R1 website :

My advice : Dont get your hopes up. Dainik Jagaran is not really known for news which you can rely on.
