I never saw the price ! Always wanted a diesel bike - just the idea seems so ridiculous that it must be good. He has tarted this one up too much. I m sure Royal Enfield India did a diesel for a while - just that they never come up.

I've often wondered why Honda didn't offer a turbo-diesel Pan Euro or Goldwing, it's the obvious thing for torque-oriented cruising, with good mpg.  They wasted time and effort on a lot of dead-end technology, a diesel at least is a real world thing.
