LOL!!

It's designed by Engines Engineering.. So i would say it's Italian design!!

I think pricing is ok if not a steal, but the design is what will make me stay away from it. Though I agree it'll be a delight to take this bike to Leh, simply perfect for the terrains.

@MG: Did the M&M VP told you in secret that a faired version is coming

It isnt FI, or is it?
Vertical headlamps would look better IMO & Tank should be bigger too.

It would be great if all design related thoughts would be posted on this thread.



Finally we are getting serious about design!

Cheers!

+1, But still if the mojo gets a bigger lights at front it can be looking muscular. I dont remember the name but i can recall a bike with such twin lights & IMO it was looking very muscular.

HOW can you Conclude that.....? maybe the mojo would ACCELERATE faster than the Ninja.....? wait for a test ride report.....


The R15 is in a league of it's own when compared to the P220 and the Mojo.
Both these bikes wouldn't hold a candle to how brilliantly the R15 handles.
It would be to early to make a statement about handling of the bike so soon. Untill it hits the road & we have a test ride we cannot comment on the handling. Although the looks of mojo says that it is a street bike & might not be well on tracks(keeping fingers crossed).

besides... we don't know anything about the Mojo's performance.
100% Agreed

AGREE WITH YOU.....

but i'm sure we'll always see more R15s than Mojo's on raods.
I have always said & would like to say again that the indian market is highly unpredictable & anything can happen

i second that..... mojo is targetted @ Metros..... & Delhi guys for sure, won't go for this as they all WANT looks.....


comments in color..... sorry mods..... no other options i had......

Btw R15 and Mojo in Handling, nothing can be said...it is too soon to comment ... A shoot out/track day with both will give a clearer picture.....Tech wise both are equally matched on paper. How well Mojo handles on track or on the highway is still a question waiting to be answered

it sure should be good, as its tested in Italy..... may that would become its USP..... fingers crossed.....

On pure Styling, MOJO is not even close to P220/R15/ZMR/ZMA/FZ/FAZER... as most of these are complete design and have very few angles from which it looks bad ....

+100 to ya pal..... but,seriously a bold move by Mahindra..... but, they should atleast thave put a little more THOUGHT in to the design..... Aaamir must have been laughing at it in his mind.....

+1, But still if the mojo gets a bigger lights at front it can be looking muscular. I dont remember the name but i can recall a bike with such twin lights & IMO it was looking very muscular.

if its got to SELL, it would need lots & lots of aesthetic changes..... especially for Metros..... hope M2W is listening..... who knows thats why they have bought time till Jan,2011 to do changes before bookings.....

that's what i said.

@mechduderxz: bud... i din't say that.
the rest of the bold text was madhav_krishna reply in bold from within my post.

the red text isn't mine.

kindly read my original post on the previous page.

We guys are never satisfied do we ?

When ZMR launched every one was screaming about the looks and finally
most of us were ok with that look , then we started screaming about the
specs of the bike , it is underpowered blah blah ..

Now when mahindra launched a bike with all the dream specs we were expecting now every one scream about looks .

Personally i liked the bike .Especially the specs on the papers . I am waiting to see how it performs in real world .
Anyday i prefer Naked bike with high ground clearance and relaxed seating position over full faired bikes (like ninja) with low ground clearance and sporty seating position for daily commuting and touring in indian conditions . (In smaller scale i will say i like Karizma over R15 for the same reason as a bike for touring )

This bike is having all the specs i always wanted , 6 gears , 26 bhp , Monoshock , Naked , FI , Radiator , excellent tyres .
i expected these in new ZMR but dissapointed . Now this bike have it all .

I dont care if it is not having the looks of super bikes . I dont care what other will tell/comment about bike . If the bike is having a refined and problem free engine i love to buy this .

We were wondering who among Yamaha, Honda , bajaj , TVS , HH will first cross the 225 cc bar but we have a surprise entry ..
Hats off to Mahindra for the bold move..

i like the Black one the most...hope the head lamps were placed vertically so that it could cover that ugly empty space...apart from this i like its looks.

New thread created

"xBhp Launch coverage -Mahondra Mojo and Stallio"

Will be compltely updated by tonight.

check this link for mojo launch

YouTube - 300cc Mojo Bike Launch in India: New Mahindra 2 Wheelers 300cc Motorcycle

3 threads on one single topic. At most, there should be 2, one each for Mojo as a new beginning for motorcycling in India and one for live coverage/ launch transcriptions, etc. Perhaps, the locked thread 'from Speculation to Reality needs to be opened.

Anyone listening here?

the looks have grown onto me...it looks cute in some sort of weird way...maybe i would go for it...have to see the bike in real first..thinking its too short for a 6fy guy??? how tall is a p220dtsi?

Yes we are here.

First one was mainly speculation. Second one was live update thread and third one will be the actual Launch report thread.

Right now only this thread is open. Once the Launch Thread will be opened this will be closed and the Live update thread will be merged with the Speculation to Reality thread.

@MG: The pix look fantastic, hope to see more of them today

Maybe I'm nitpicking here. Though, in the last video, why did the have to pushed the bike in by two guys? That was so anti-climax. If some one could simply rode in, perhaps with engine roaring amplified through the PA. That may have looked better.

Any way couldn't wait for for spare parts to reach service centers
