I dont quite agree dude..
indian market welcomes all kind of bikes..seriously
even R15
isnt that performance bike..
ppl are splashin almost 10-15k more than on paper more pwrful bikes to get one of them..
FZ16...i seriously feel..it was the bike..made keepin target buyers interested in looks and exclusivity..so..no wonder we bought it..even it was some 6-7 grands more than usual 150cc bike..and givin almost 10ltr less milage..even when petrol rates were 50 rs /ltr..

A Jazz customer is different..well that TV Advt with the lovely song
(someone please inform the details about the song, album, singer etc..please) seems to suggest this point of view !
Same is the case with the R15 and FZ right?
Think of an R 15 priced at 80K..think who would buy them..now look at who buys them..any sense 
Well I dont know about their economics and financials...maybe they see more revenues in catering to select clients than go mass market..  Dont they need money???
But one thing is clear the big guns are slowly waking up from their sleep...well you know who and all...
It looks like within a span of a couple of years lots of true bikers are going to emerge from our India !!!
Anyways got 2 pics from the net..(google all the way)
FZ and Fazer..would love to do it in 150 guise... |
DOnt understand much logic..behind this car..auto manufacturers..man..everyone has different strategy..and no one can guess wat will work..or wat works ..
look at herohonda..
not a single new performance bike..for past dont knw hw many years..still
they..are sellin..
