      so maybe Bajaj just launched the Ninja 400R at 4.5 lac.

      .
      Dont worry brother, u surely are going to get 250cc more and the 4.5 lac pricetag mentioned is of exshowroom Pune.

        It implies that they are taking huge profit from 250R (Its my guess)
        Lets see if they place it below 5.5L then Gt650R is dead and Honda might consider launching the new CBR600F ABS at a reasonable price.
        1. 3.2L is the on road price of the 250R and 4.5 is the ex-showroom of the 650R.

        If you compare ex-showrooms 2.69 and 4.5, then you'll see a difference of almost Rs. 2 Lacs. Which I believe is enough to change minds, specially with petrol prices skyrocketing.
        It will kill GT, unless GT's price is revised, but not the N250R.

        2. Honda considering something, means it will take them 2 years to launch it, history being a witness to that. Remember CBR 1000RR launch?

        • The pricing is correct.. considering it is UK version of ER-6f prized at 6400 pounds = Rs. 4.5l. same manner how ninja 250 is priced..

              If that is true then on road Delhi would be sub 5 lac .

                More or less what Bajaj had promised last year if my sources are right

                Thanks for the news buddy.

                @Satyen :- Hope you keep your word.
                Where do I sign?
                The N250R is not dead yet, its a different league... but yeah a price cut there might help it!

                The flying Ninja kick.



                i'd say goodbye GT650R...
                but it's not long before Garware revise the price of the already overpriced GT650R.



                .
                +1 on Garware.... there is a price cut else a long list of freebies coming with the bike

                This is true for Hyosung too... I am hoping this will cause a steep drop in GT650's prices.
                Common Sense: Most business work for profit... so does this... so does every one else

                101% sure now garware motors will drop prices of GT and ST7 else they can't survive.

                WIN WIN situation for us ( bikers).

                I also heard that though Ninja will be launched on 9th June but it would be available in cities other than pune at the end of June,any body has some info about it. Vishwas bro were are you .
                This IS definitely the right approach... This also allows them to pit the zx6r or the z750 in a nice niche....

                The same price difference exists in UK too! Its a different genre man! and PS: 3.2 is OTR. 4.5 is Ex Showroom... so assume 5ish OTR

                I am a happy man

                • Maybe Zigwheels is just guessing the price for the Ninja 650R.

                    so if and when the ZX6R get's here... it'll be priced sub 6 lac.

                      I dont think a bike like zx6r makes sense in India. But with news about the R6's and gixxers coming in (read somewhere dont remember where) so who knows!

                          GT650R will stay at that price. The bike has a great road presence and everyone goes ga ga over it and most of the buyers will buy it only for its face value.

                          • Just saw Zigwheels on ET now , It clearly mentioned that it's NINJA 650R , don't know when/who started this confusion of it being a 400R ,
                            It's definitely a 650R.

                            Check out the video here Kawasaki Ninja 650R: Bigger & better!-Auto-ET NOW-Economic Times

                            Any idea when we can check the bike in flesh in Delhi and the color options.

Adil was the story teller & the guy who drove the 650r started off with a massive wheelie. He was going ga ga over the performance of the bike. Though i didnt expected but this one is a real beauty to look at, beleive me friends. In pictures i saw front forks were silver but it had black ones just like ninja 400r. It also had rear grab rails like 400r.
                              biker brothers.. don't confuse things between 450 and 650r

                              also you might know the pricing of 250r and 650r in UK.. they are probably (still in doubt) using the same theory here..
