    Honda should contemplate of preferably launching a twin cylinder mobike like the V-Twin 125 cc Varadero, but in 250 / 300 cc category to challenge India Kawasaki’s “Baby Ninja”.

    features r kissable but price makes it untuchable.
    in comparision to karisma 225cc & bajaj bikes cost goes very high

  6. anonymous on July 29, 2010 at 7:25 am

    this adds another 3-5yrs to my wait.
    Single cylinder? (disappointing)
    No FI (for tat price too?)
    Rear drum brakes (u got 2 b kidding)
    Atleast hope its got kickstart!

    Bt then again i hope the fazer 250 gts announced quick wit all these features to spice up t competition n mayb then honda will gt their act together

    HONDA SCOOTERS & MOTORCYCLES INDIA should be launching for the mass market in India either Japan Honda’s VTR250 blend of sporty performance, easy handling and edgy street credibility heads the 250cc class. Its high performance V-twin two-cylinder engine liquid cooled 4 stroke 90° V-twin engine, harnessed with should be the bike If not bring in the Brazil Honda’s XRE 300. Honda should be creating market segments, not be copying its competitors. HOPE HONDA IS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT OPINIONS EXPRESSED BY BIKERS.

    Shame for Indian AARI , India We need Fuel Efficient vehicle not More Powered Vehicle which means more money for Government and RTO’s.
    As Per Indian RTO norms They have slab based on Engine CC not on Gear box.

    In India If Japanese / Korean / China or some other companies prefer to loot money for thier country.

    For 2 people to drive in India 100 CC Vehicles or one with Lessthan 125 CC is more than enough. Craxy maniacs and Flim Stunt drivers etc let them pay duty and Inport the Vehicle for thier business showoffs.

    If we have 6 speed vehile like 2 (Special low gear for Up hill or down hill driving , Plain Terain drive / city Traffic drive 3 Gears Standard ) , Over drive Gear for Free way drive. There are Several 4 Stroke Engines with sub 85CC vehicle listed. Note : Indian Government should ask manufacturers to lower cost of FI vehicle less than Carbreator, Which is more Fuel efficient vehicle. But now Fuel Injected Vehicle Cost more 10K INR which is day time robbery and looting.

    Note : Still India is not Consumer driven Market. Most of us Just buy what we get or supplied by vendors or Dealers.

    Also Automobile Sector just focus on Young Generations where in they buy vehicle at thier parents cost. In such fact Base model motorbike should be flodded in Market , Instead of more vehicle with various paints and Several Platic body vehicles are in market.

    When Supplier Says they promote product but when Consumer asks for preference Suppler of India are not ready to hancle Since they are just money minded when each vehicle is sold in India.

    For Next 10 Years I feel That 2 wheelers In India should not be sold. Only Import of Vehicle should be there in Many local supplier of parts will make parts for vehicle. Also Several Departments in India and Excise department will get more money if any automobile is Imported.

    Note: In Several Garriage I can see many automobile as Scrap , In India we still need 50 CC vehicle which can be with manual gear box there in , Several 2 stroke vehicle scrapped in Indian market will come alive.

    Note: Vehicle like Mofa / TVS Echo etc no more..!! IF manufacturers are efficient let them take order and make the vehicle. or Governmetn gives local Medium Schale industry to do the vehicle with in thier district itself.

    Note: This will save lot of un-necessary over costing for consumers.

    India should See automobile as local Make industry like Tailoring shops.
