  • It's reasonable except for the torque figures...It looks great(much better than the 250).has a better palette of colors to choose from(again better than the 250),comparable specs and every other feature that our aam junta desires in a motorcycle...But Ive never really warmed up to the customer care at Honda.Have tried a few places here in Bangalore and except sapphire, there's almost no respect for what we,as customers have to say...

    Regardless of a slight premium over the competition,it is bound to sell
    It all begins with a thumb-start -- Oh, wait, I forgot the kill-switch

      R15 - 1.30 in bangalore.
      It'll be close to 1.38 for the cbr.

      Difference between the 2 - dohc and 1+bhp.

      I dont know why people think Cbr aint as good looking as my beloved R15.
      Juz look at those elegant curves. Elegance brimmed till the edge.
      Such a Gentleman's Bike this is. Its a He all the way.

                  DOHC (how many bikes do we have in india with DOHC which retail for less than 3 lacs?), Perimeter Frame, Liquid cooling engine, FI technology, soft compound tyres, a light weight of 138 kilos even when it has a full fairing(imagine how heavy pulsar 200 NS will be with a full fairing)... and yeah a top speed which people believe is ATLEAST 130+KMPH...
                  There are some video on youtube where modded CBR150R's are doing 180+kmph

                  If you look at the things this bike is capable of doing... its worth every penny of the 1.35 lakh rupees...

                  I remember reading a review by some magazine where they raced a stock CBR150R against a daytona R15... the difference was just a second or two between them, a modded CBR150R will be probably THE BEST commercial 150cc 4 stroke in the world.
                  Is it, what is Duke then? 200 cc DOHC engine with 25HP available at the same price, but you still think it's justified for a 150cc Honda making about 18bhp??

                    +100 for that.

                    Paying such an amount for 12.6 Nm torque. Instead get a 200CC with 19 Nm.

                    Even guys at the Honda showroom were surprised to know that KTM, a 200 CC is priced at 1,17,500, they too believe that price-minded ppl will think that if by paying almost the same amount i get 50 CCs more, why not.

                                for our junta what do you think wil be outcome of 50cc vs full fairing???
                                take a wild guess.

                                wonder what kind of big bore kit will come out here, maybe a 200, 250??
