Hi Everybody

Post by raxrajiv »

I am Rajiv , Pretty new to this world of RD ,
Well Yet to own one , just started hunting for one.
this lust of owning one intesified after seeing this blue RD guy in sarjaur Rd , for all i know he might be one of us in this forum.
not even one week in this forum but feel like i am chasing a wild dream wildest and expensive one i guess.
not a very bike guy till now , but had some exotic 4 wheels in last 12 yrs to be proud of .
Ron , derek , Cheif ,Chinoy wish me good luck , i could see passion in the blogs that you write .
one question : how many RD were sold in INDIA and how many might be running (jus running may not be RDD perfect!) :-#

welcome there are two kinds of RD nuts.
Those that must own one no matter what the cost.
And those that have a budget.

When I purchased my first RD I was making Rs 2500/- a month. The guy wanted 28K I think for this bike. The market price for RDs was 8-10K at the time.

But I knew he was a Bawa who took good care of it. And I had to have just that one.
Lucky for me. It turned out the be the bike that started this revolution in India.

BTW the guy who sold me the bike his name was Sarosh Muncherji. He was my Senior in Tata Steel.

Welcome and even i stay at Sarjapur Junction, would like to know your 4 wheels you owns.
The max number on RD chasis or engine i have seen was 86xx so i can assume maximum 9000 RD's were produced in India and no idea about how many of them are running.
