Seems to be a hastily-done (or perhaps, not genuine) list.
The HD XR1200X at 6.5 Lk? Seriously? When the Sportster 883 itself will be more than that? And only a single front disc eh? Old pics of the 650R. Do you think the K9-K10 looks anything like that? Oh look, the Zx-14R has only 5 gears! VFR 800. That was discontinued. So what are we getting? And was it not kind of given that no R125 will come here? |

I spoke to Probiking Manager a few weeks bike, The only way a Ninja 650R would be coming is the CBU route which means price at least 8 lakhs due to customs and since it is below 800 cc they would have to get it homologated as per ARAI which would add more cost.
This is a crappy list to excite kids.

The price of XR1200 is not 6,50,000 & its 11,95,000 Ex showroom Delhi; The price of XL883L is 6,95,000 & 883 Nightster is 7,50,000
Source - Harley-Davidson India - Motorcycles - Sportster - XR 1200X Also, HD is launching 12 motorcycles while Heritage classic & XR1200R is mentioned above; Somewhere I remember reading that HD is betting on 883L & Nightster as they're the cheapest HD's in India.

Yeah looks like a wish list from all the bikes that were displayed at the Auto Expo
 Bajaj has not yet launched the launch ready KTM bikes & it took them long to launch the N250 so 650R in this year looks doubtful.

as i keep envy of R125 & eagerly waiting to hit indian market, but what i have read somewhere is that Yamaha India yet not have any plan to launch this bike in india, this bike is more sucessfull in US/EU market, when it comes to india, many of the auto producers have to look for customization (according to indian condition) which includes cost & result to Heavy prizing of bikes in Indian. bad to indian pocket... humm |
