      So finally Mahindra has found its warhorse. This is a impressive number by Mahindra standards.

        I had seen a brand new Centuro on the road a couple of days back and honestly I was a bit taken aback! The pricing is really attractive on this one and it comes with all the functional goodies. Though I have not ridden this bike yet, I did feel the lack of outright punch from the *almost mechanically identical* Pantero as compared to a Discover 100(5G). But then sometimes gizmos can be used to overcome this lack of outright performance.

        Overall it seems like a well thought out product by Mahindra at an unbeatable pricetag. Nice to see M2W doing well. If only they can tell me the updated location of their SVC in Nasik now (My Rodeo needs a service ).
        Advice is a form of nostalgia.

                We have a long enough list of flop 'high mileage , cheap commuter' bikes in the market to know that it is not as simple as you just made it out to be.

                  All bikes in this segment are more or less same sans the goodies.

                  The goodies coming with this bike are unbelievable and unheard of even in the segments above it. Are we talking bikes here or what!?

                        It has been well received.
                        I guess the advertisement played its part too .

                        Getting angry at somebody is the same as getting angry with a bike that just won't go. You should stop and start thinking.

                        It is funny to know that we've been imitated and copied so well
                        and surprising when we notice our mistakes are copied as well.

                          Good first shot for Mahindra, and the bookings are truly astonishing for a newbie in two wheeler market. It's not just the bike but the additional user friendly features not to be left the unbelievable mileage that has garnered it these many bookings. Some of these features are totally new for bikes and surely Mahindra wanted stand out of the crowd.

                          See, competition is good for the consumers in the end and pushes for better quality products.

                            Ok 10000 bookings are fine but where will they service it . Do they really have the infrastructure . I see so many Duros running in awful condition.

                              yes quite practical question there!!!
                              by the way this bike gives better fuel efficiency then most 100cc bikes & Honda's Dream neo would be main reason behind its success..
