    regarding the HX250R.. its going to give a tough competition to the Honda India stable.. Waiting for the HX250R.. being developed with the help of EBR professionals, I am quite sure the bike is going to be ultra smooth and the reliability is going to be as good.. refinement i am not sure about as the Americans never were able to bring in refinement like the Japs did
    You must be joking buddy. Dont know which competition you are talking about..??
    Honda is literally struggling in premium segment and even in commuter segment as per their standards. They are selling just 250 odd cbr's combined (150 and 250). They are generating those respectable numbers from scooters only specially activa. They are nothing in front of hero if you will compare apple to apple.

      Not exactly.. i meant to say a bike that can kill the sales of CBR.. this might even kill the sales of CBR across the globe if it proves itself to be reliable and stable without losing on the quality.. power figures are definitely a CBR killer.. underweight for a 250cc.. imagine what it can do to a 25 bhp powered CBR which weighs more than 150kgs.. power to weight ratio is whooping high and the bike in terms of quality sure wins it over CBR. Hoping you have seen the bike in flesh.. i am madly in Love with the Orange color

        Ya you are right the sale of activa and shine which give them respectable figures. They might not be selling much CBR but it is always not a good idea to increase the market share, but to increase the market size and they take away the share. With Hero launching the 250 cc the advantage will be that people will know that Hero knows technology which will indirectly increase their smaller bikes sale. Well the HX 250 r has more power and a lot lighter which will make it a rocket when accelerating. Moreover bike will have the advantage of more service centers and also availability of spares in outside market.

                  ^^^ Don't get too excited buddy This is bordering on desperation. Wait till the bike can actually roll on the road. TVS Chicane or whatever has been looking great for past so many expos, and yet it has not rolled a single KM. So hold your horses till it is launched.

                    Yeah its kinda same case again. hx250r looks better in flesh than in pictures. I am not saying it is looking bad in pictures but it looks better in real specially that orange color which was looking awesome. It was a show stopper kinda thing. It was looking BIG, muscular, stylish, mean, sleek and hot. I don't have more words to explain its beauty. Trust me it will blow away duke, cbr, mojo, r15, pulsar and all the other things below 2 lac rupees in every department. 31 horses are good enough to make it perform like a rocket specially considering its weight which is just 139 kilos. Its under seat exhaust and that huge tank alone will seal the deal for posers whereas enthusiasts will enjoy its performance.

                        I don't think there is anything in Indian motorcycle market which can match this tail section which look very superbikish. Side profile is also very unique, sleek and muscular. Front part is not up to the mark but its not bad either and don't forget to check the paint and build quality which is best in class.
