Will Yamaha YZF R125 come to India? - Page 5 - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

Did NOT read the entire thread ... ok? But, Europe R125 won't come Here .. 100%.

It makes no Sense. @ 3000 Pounds, it will cost 2.6+ Lacs in India ... Worth it?

We Expect a Ninja 250 for same price, or even less ...

Gladi 125 is doing better things here

WOnt even dream of R125 to be here in INDIA
99.9% of Indians will prefer to go for a Bigger bike from Yamaha - and not for a Punny 125cc Mill

Its clearly mentioned by Yamaha Cheif design engineer a couple of day back in chennai R15 tarck meet when we directly talked about the yzf r125... coming to india. He strictly denied... and questioned me back asking...When we have r15...Whats the point in getting R125 ??

@mods: So this thread can be locked and no more discussion on this

Yes, even I said the same thing above ... Read it someone!!

Would you get Ninja 250 or YZF R125 ?? for the same price ... (3000 Pounds)??

It's common sense!! Obvious Common Sense guys ... useless topic!

There has been some very valid points raised by members on this thread. This could very well put a seed of thought in people's minds which could make something happen. So keep the discussion healthy and to the point. There's no reason to lock this thread otherwise.

My view on this would be that the R125 could be a nice sport 125cc bike and with local manufacturing and clever pricing, would create a whole new niche market on its own. Who knows? Stranger things have been known to happen.. such as a 1L OTR 150cc bike outselling higher capacity bikes.

An Indian R125 is maybe possible! Priced around 80,000 it may succeed ...

But, the title says "COME to India??" ... Come from where? Europe Version won't succeed in selling here ....

Please change title to "Is an 'Indian R125' welcomed by us?"

Shheesh! I was thinking of Indian-ised R4 & R6, while people still dream R125 ?? Guys, maybe we need to talk about more cc's ...

we have R-1-5 why we need R-1-2-5 ??
Instead we need a R-2-5-0

Finally, a guy who's speaking my language ... R125 may be a substitute for 150-180cc Indian Bikes... Still, not for me!

+10 ...

Let's await the FZ 250 & Gladiator 165 ... don't ask me the source, ok? he is 50% sure of this... that's all!
