    I checked out the bike at the showroom yest and other than the graphics there isn't much of a difference (although in my opinion the headlight is a improvement over the older one, lesser evil so to speak). I don't know why people crib about the cbz-x so much I bought the bike last year and here are my thoughts:

    1) It has nice pickup and holds its own all the way to 100 (which is more than enough in mumbai traffic)
    2) It gives a mileage of 45-50 which is excellent in my eyes (its a balance between power and fuel and its perfect for a 150cc)
    3) I have had no problems whatsoever with the bike just been giving it for servicing. At the most my horn conked off during the rains.

    One thing I don't like is the pillion seating which is literally a pain in the ass for whoever is behind (the seat is thinner than most text books). But all in all its a good balance for someone who wants power but doesn't want to burn his salary on fuel. If your looking to race go for a higher cc ride its as simple as that. (While this post looks like a rant I assure you I don't mean to offend anyone. I just thought some of the posts were silly expecting a 150cc sensible bike to be tuned to some R15 like demon)
    ^^You got some strong points mate. Actually CBZ X is not a bad bike at all. It hits the sweet spot between performance and mileage. Though more is never enough but my opinion is in traffic busy cities people actually don't need (read chance ) to do 100+. If u are over that then you are looking for some trouble. If someone is looking for highway riding then better to shift to a higher cc bike.

    Another thing is maintaining the bike. This bike has already proven itself.

    At last, look of the bike . Yes I do hate the head light. It spoiled the whole bike's charm. But changing headlight is not a big deal if you want to try some experiments .

        • The new CBZ Xtreme may not get Dual colour alloy wheels yesterday Yuvraj singh Got a CBZ Xtreme for man of the match vs England. That Bike was the new version but it didnot sport dual colour alloys. The bike was looking just fine without the cartoon character alloy wheels.
          Never upgrade without getting your basics RIGHT.

          • The advertisements are now on the air. With same power figure 14.4 PS, they are boasting it clearly as NEW ATFT Engine.

            Is it legally correct ?

            Also, the advertisement is as crappier as it could be.

              Me too saw one new Xtreme with red graphics and it did not had red alloy wheel. But i am still not 100% sure coz it passed very quickly and i just had quick look on it.

                      Well that is expected. No company would like that. Even SRK would never dare drink coke in front of the public.

                        My info was wrong the clour of the rear alloy wheel is the colour of the tank, So people who want black CBXtreme can have it as good as the earlier one.

                            • Saw an ad in today's paper with dual colored alloy wheels, a small advert. I have been trying to search it for the past 1 hours but unable to do so .

                                So it stands to reason that if we bash the CBZ's engine maybe we will get CBZ-RTR 160 FI edition.
                                By the way,I saw the new CBZ extreme(on the famous social networking site).And though the tail and the suspension are red,the alloys are in black.So that's a relief.But nevertheless it looks quite comical in black and red.
