If Indian production is on the table, they might be able to keep prices down even on the flagship.
What's the actual benefit of registering the design?
The main goal is probably to prevent local design knockoffs, kind of like groundwork before the launch.
Even BMW is looking at expanding into India, proof of how much weight that market carries now.
A design registration isn't a confirmed release, so best to treat it as just a possibility for now.
It says it's based on the M1000RR, so I guess this is a preview of the next M1000RR.
