    How I would love to have that bike over here... that or the FZR 250 or the GSXR 250... they were technically cutting edge and awesome!!! And to top it of... nothing compares to the exhaust note of a in-line 4!!!

      I completely share the passion for that edge.

      How about RC 149 125cc 5 cylinder @23,000 rpm in stock trim and @&^%0,000 rpm in lab testing and at 200 kmph in stock.

        By pricing it at ~2L
        - The R15s will continue to sell.
        - The P220 would continue to sell
        - The ZMA\ZMR would continue to sell
        - The Mojo ... lol let it come first!

        By pricing it at 1.5L
        - The R15 is more or less dead, thanks to phat arse and new looks
        - The P220 folks who bought it on full payment have something to look upto the ones who bough a cheap 220 bike where the cheapness prevailed the perfomance would continue buying it. The rest would be a scatter

        - It kills the yet to rise bikes from indigenous manufacturers...


        Honda MADE this bike with a 1.5L range in their mind.... I wonder why you guys are giving them a idea that it deserves to be priced more for any reasons!

        - I might fall for it at that price...! it should be a nice touring machine (Though I would prefer a semi faired bike than this!)
        I completely agree with you Satyen! Don't know why people speculatively price it at 2L when honda wants to aim 1.5L
        If mahindra was watching the Mojo thread for feedback (as was mentioned by the mods), then request people with 2L speculations to keep quiet - Honda marketing guyus might be watching this space. Those who talk exclusivity at a price, please go n buy a Ninja or other SBK imports available!

        I have already started saving and by the time it arrives in India, hopefully should have enough to pay the booking amount atleast!
        It should be enough to satisfy longings of an average biker joe like me who seeks joy in daily 40KM office commute done on resonably open highways within mumbai and a weekend ride once in 2 months or so.

        Honda, please bring it as soon as possible!!!!

            Its just that Honda is known to charge a premium (rightfully, haughtily..), so I can't believe the price ex-factory/showroom/road/whatever....

            But if they do manage to price it at 1.5, its a killer

            Blah Blah Blah!

              I wonder how the KTM "Baby" Duke will appeal to bikers after the Honda CBR250R.

                @abhi: All the inline four 250 japs are long dead! How I wish that these were still in production!
                Stratospheric 20k+ rev counters!! Orgasmic!!
                What do I intend to do? Stuff ZMR drivetrain into an Ambition chassis and watch others run scared!

                  BREAKING NEWS: Pricing of Honda CBR 250R declared! Rs. 1,44,219 OTR Pune! I just checked up with Pashankar Honda @ JM Road Pune! What happened was.. I was taking a Nap! and I happened to go to Pashankar Honda while napping(in my dream) and they gave me a written quotation for CBR250R for the aforementioned amount. The above amount does not include price of RVMs, Crash bobbins, main stand and Number plates though.. they will have to be bought for an extra payment of Rs. 1800(total). But the OTR price of Bike-only has been declared(in my head). And I am going to stick to this price for the rest of the discussion in this speculation thread!

                  P.S.: @All The above post is totally OT (On Topic) and for the rest of your FB updates and comments please use various variations of the above amount i.e. Rs. 1,44,219/- for your city(as per taxes.. i.e. Bangalore price is higher, Delhi price is lower) so that this is the price which the company gets feedback of and Satyen Poojary's experiment can be successfully conducted.
                  Advice is a form of nostalgia.
                  Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

                    With the Moto3 Class featuring 250 Single's coming up, I guess an International 250 Single cylinder sportsbike market is coming up.Maybe this is the beginning of it.But yes this does look like more sports-touring oriented.But still, just my thoughts.

                        You think there are more supermoto fans than sportsbike fans here?
