I like this news! wake up call for HH. start investing in to some RnD now atleast or close your shop.

yupps! Thats waht i mean. One can not compare Bajaj RnD with that of HH



Yes they both are together but the currents relation is certainly different to what was earlier. I stress here on technical aspects especially the engine and the design. Bajaj brought Pulsar engine after a bye-bye to Kawasaki. Other success stories include the best selling Discover, segment leader Avenger(though design is of Eliminator still), XCD, etc. And dont forget it was after Kawasaki that Bajaj got indulged in experiments, that failed like the hooodibaba bike, decision to shut off their 100cc bikes, etc. That didnt happen with HH. On technical terms I see Bajaj , more close to KTM than Kawasaki.
To be in simple words..all i see is that Hero&Honda, Baj & Kawak part 1 and Baj-Kawak part 2...all three collaboration are distinct and different though they might borrow from each other is varying degrees and aspects
