Original Source: Yamaha To Launch Anniversary Editions Next Week from BikeAdvice.in Even before I start writing on this topic, let me confirm one fact for the ease of our readers. The title of this post will immediately attract you to read about what is the content thinking that Indian bikes will see a limited edition series. But, this write up is not for Indian bikes, but for the International models.
MCN has reported recently that Yamaha will be unveiling anniversary special edition models next week as the Japanese firm celebrate 50 years of participation in Grand Prix racing. Not just one models but four models. These models will be unveiled on Wednesday, but till now Yamaha has revealed not a single info of any of these 4 models. The site has posted in its website that 'Yamaha won't even discuss which models are involved in the looming press release but the firm's own website reveals at least four of the expected models. It also claims that the Yamaha Press website has created separate folders for these 4 models, but there are no images in any of these folders which clearly proves that the company is maintaining the secrecy to its maximum extent possible. But, the folders include an updated Yamaha YZF-R1, cosmetically changed YZF-R6, FZ8 and YZF-R125, which are the 4 models that will see an anniversary edition soon. The updated Yamaha YZF-R1 is expected to have undergone a series of engineering and cosmetic changes but will still remain fundamentally the same bike as the current model which is on sale globally. 2009 was the year when the current R1 model underwent a change. This is a reason why this model is suffering setback in terms of competing with Yamaha's rivals from various other brands. The R1, along with the other models are believed to all be getting a paint scheme based on that seen at the Laguna Seca and Assen rounds of the 2010 MotoGP championship with reigning world champion Jorge Lorenzo and team-mate Ben Spies. Apart from R1, the other 3 models to undergo change are the YZF-R6, FZ8 and YZF-R125 (as mentioned above). But, we are left with no hint or clue on what changes these models are gonna see.

| Ducati Launches a Website Exclusively for India Posted: 10 Sep 2011 08:39 AM PDT
Original Source: Ducati Launches a Website Exclusively for India from BikeAdvice.in Italian Motorcycle Major Ducati, which has recently come up with a big portfolio for the Indian market has launched an exclusive Indian website. The company has understood the potential of selling its bikes here and in order to make people aware of the brand, it has come up with such an idea. The URL for the website is Ducati.co.in
The website is laid out neatly and looks impressive right at the first sight. The portfolio of Ducati bikes for India has the Diavel series with two models under it namely the Diavel and the Diavel Carbon bikes. Next is the HyperMotard series with 3 models under it viz, 796, 1100 Evo and 1100 Evo SP. Following the HyperMotard series is the Monster with just one model namely the 796 under it. Then comes the really macho Multistrada series of machines with 3 models under the tag – The 1200, 1200S Sport and the 1200 S Touring. Lastly, it is the Superbike series with 848 Evo, 1198 and 1198 SP under this particular series. This is the portfolio that is mentioned in the Indian site and would be available for us in t he Indian Ducati showrooms. There is also a link to explain all the works and contributions of Ducati along various races. Apart from the bike, there is also a link to the online store where online merchandise for men, women and for kids are separately available. Trust me, the stuff available here are just brilliant. I was going through the Ducati jackets for men and the designs were just stunning. Awesome work from Ducati. Every single product here is worth buying. I would actually prefer using the term ' possessing' rather than buying. Apart from apparels, there are also exclusive accessories that are made available for few of the Ducati machines and they all can be ordered online, though the price for most of the apparels and accessories are undisclosed. The dealer network details and services regarding the same are provided in a separate link. The homepage brings you all the latest offerings and details about the company, right here in India and as well as all across the globe. At this point of time, when Ducati has come up with a website for the Indian customers and their new market, I would like to share a small piece of info which I read in the Economic Times recently. According to it, Indian consumers are continuing to show strong appetite for luxury products even as consumption in the rest of the economy slows down due to inflation and sliding growth prospects. In order to prove this fact, Ducati says it will sell 300 bikes in 2011, which is a solid 200 units more than what the company sold last year. And same store sales of fashion accessory labels Jimmy Choo and Canali are growing at a rate of 30% year on year. Mr. Ashish Chordia, chairman of Shreyans Group which recently inaugurated the first Ducati showroom in Bangalore city says, “We were in for a shock. In the first week itself, we sold 16 bikes.” Such is the market for the brand of Ducati in India and the company is sure to scale new heights in the luxury bike segment in the near future.
