Even I love that colour. Incidentally My current Desktop Wallpaper is a Blue Ninja650R only. No doubt its super hottt, But when I see 'Black' My senses go numb & I surrender to the Darkness...Originally posted by melroyal View PostHi spiderweb.My favourite colour is the blue one.
MG: What colour are we expecting here in India?

and the OTR price too?Originally posted by melroyal View PostThat's BAD!!
It would be nice if it had the handling and performance characters of a Ninja ZX.
954 for sale!?!Originally posted by bikefreak View PostSpoke to a probiking showroom guy. He is of the opinion that it would be launched only by Diwali/Dussera !!!!!
He said "This is not the season to launch bikes, with the rains round the corner" !!
at 4.5 lac... Hyosung will have no choice but to drop the price of the GT650R.Originally posted by satyenpoojary View PostBajaj always harped on the fact that the bikes are priced as per thier UK rates... 4.5L OTR for the 650.
or maybe just launch the naked H650R at 4 lac.

Lets not discuss possibilties here please... what makes it impossible?
Somewhere in this thread we had a logic explaining why.... and to repeat, Bajaj always harped on the fact that the bikes are priced as per thier UK rates. So it turns out 3.1 OTR in India, and about 4.5L OTR for the 650.
Hyosung is NOTHING in front of Kawasaki! Naada! Not even worth of being compared. The GT650 is an amazing product in its own, AND is overpriced, especially considering that parts of it are being assembled here!
As far as dropping the cost for 250 is concerned, dropping it now makes little sense (and trust me, they might still do a small cut here and there) BUT the 650 is a different breed of machine altogether! Comparing thes two are like comparing the R15 with the P220.
Edit: the Er6f does not have a sporty stance.... (I would personally LOVE the Versys, but that JUST wont sell in India) so the er6f (and may be n in later days) makes bloody good business sense!Last edited by satyenpoojary; 05-10-2011, 02:24 AM.

A sub 5L OTR according to me is just not possible, Bajaj hardly cares about huge sales numbers for Kawasaki. Had that been a case, 250R prices would have dropped as it sells in meagre number but its not happening, they are keeping that premium image.Originally posted by satyenpoojary View PostI still maintain a sub 5L OTR price and we have a winner in the long term. Remember you could still take the buyers on ride with the spares and service!
Bajaj would keep the Hyosung prices in mind and launch the 650R, i just dont like the riding stance else the Kawasaki is a looker and that pretty much sums it. 250R is a great machine so am expecting the same from it, smooth, vibe free performance
Regarding spares - the Kawasaki spares are already at astronomical prices. Its a 650 and services would cost a bomb

:P Thank you for the compliment!Originally posted by no_nonsense4857 View PostSomebody rightly predicted the teaser would be the longest running teaser campain in the history of bajaj....
This thread is already 8 pages long and still nothing concrete about anything.
Its better bajaj does throw more light right away before the excitement vanishes and everybody logging into thier site even stop recongnising the teaser and move on to the present ninja page.
Funny part is that half of the thread content is about the Hyosung
Dont bother doc, the proscrewmybiking folks are as aware as the guys are honda with the cbr spares! So chill! Itc oming, and its pretty neat... BUT NOT your types! (848, 848, 848 - and a ride!)Originally posted by bikefreak View PostSpoke to a probiking showroom guy. He is of the opinion that it would be launched only by Diwali/Dussera !!!!!
He said "This is not the season to launch bikes, with the rains round the corner" !!
If that is true, considering the timing of the teaser, it is a very cheap tactic by bajaj to dent the sales of Hyosung GT650R IMHO.
I thought news were last year some month, then the lull, and then the video and then the green flash! I hope it comes soon. June is decent time. Before I end up draining my bank account and invest whatever remains in the all time low stock market I hope they start booking atleast!Originally posted by payeng View PostAnd bore people to death with "world's longest teaser"..??
I don't think so.
There were news of the bigger Ninja getting launch by March-April. So according to me they are a bit late.. rains or no rains.
internationally comes with and without ABS version... here... may be they would, may be they wouldnt...Originally posted by coolboy007 View Post8th of June is pretty quick, if they indeed stick to this date i would be glad because Kawasaki launches get delayed here by a few months.
One query - does the Ninja 650R come with an optional ABS unit? I saw some pics of it on international forums.
Wish they price it around 5.5 on road - brand name matters a lot and it would become a winner in the 650 segment, read some reviews and its a really great bike.
The kawasaki green on 650R is the shiny metallic one i think, looks so awesome in the pics, i liked the 2010 model where full fairing is in the bike color, the 2011 model has black dull finish on lower fairing.
The GT is no Gods gift to mankind that bajaj HAS to use it as a benchmark.....! For all you know if that happens, Hyosung would change the further lower the pricing... (and that can happen for sure!)Originally posted by melroyal View PostHi coolboy.It's a great bike awaiting to see customers response once launched.
The GT650R itself cost 5.51Lacs(single tone colour).
Doubtful that Ninja 650R will come in the same price bracket

buudy in this case i think we should switch 2 waiting game...tats the only thing tat we can do..Originally posted by Samarth 619 View PostRains are not everywhere in India, although I admit Mumbai is a big market. And what you heard may not be true.

@ danish dennis: I suggest you trust politicians more than these Probiking Dealers. They're always making remixes of news.
One probiking guy says diwali, other says June. Frankly speaking, whom to trust?
------
and guys: Ninja 650 and ER6f are different names in different markets for the same bike, ok? This bike has 72~ bhp. This is the bike we're expecting here.
ER 6n is naked version of ER6f, with the same engine, frame, everything except the fairing. Same 72~ bhp.
ZX 6R is their superports, 599cc 4 cylinder bike, which makes some 128~ bhp, has supersport riding position, chassis and brakes and costs about 1.5 times the cost of Ninja 650R.
I hope this clears all the confusion. Ninja 650R is a road bike/ tourer, ZX 6R is a supersport.

thats only related to 650 r because zx6r only comes in with fairing.. there is no naked version of zx6r..
also i read abt this ER-6F and Er-6N thing in some magzine.. i forgot the name..
