The Honda CBR1000RR is expected to cost 10 lakh and upward and will be directly pitted against the Yamaha YZF-R1 and the Suzuki Hayabusa.
Honda 100-150 cc bike will be launched in 2009 before fiscal end
Honda also plans to launch a mass market motorcycle with engine capacity between 100-150 cc. This bike will be a commuter with a frugal engine, similar to the Honda Shine.

CBR1000rr is a superbike and the Busa is a Hyperbike.We Indians,who buy superbikes are not foolish to take the bait that CBR1000 against Busa.Honda must bring their Hyperbike that is the other bike VFR.They are launching it with only 800.That is a sure hyperbike with the V5 1000cc engine.New engine production not risked due to econo meltdown.This not an exciting news for non track enthusiast.
