I have started hating Honda & Yamaha recently

I can understand why. They keep milking indian customers with old outdated models while Thailand and Indonesia get amazing fresh stuff. What if the biking communities all over India were to raise a voice or petition against them. How do you think that will turn out?

Till they are meeting their target sales number I don't think it will make any difference. But, at least we can try and tell them how many people are really fed up of their strategy.

People should just stop buying their products then only it will make a difference, boycott them for the sake of better bikes in India.

Most of the buyers are not even aware of the fact that a better version of their bike is available abroad. Even if they are, they don't have any other option than to buy these old machines.

Ha ... in their face. The Mojo is a brilliant product ... and the CBR 250R is outdated. Its our eternal quest to stay unique ....

After 10 million years I have found something remotely interesting on Zauba - a 250 cc Yamaha motorcycle for some testing. The low price on this one makes it look like a single cylinder bike though.

Corruption: No Parking sign installed after a vehicle is towed away.

A random video on a social networking site recently became the talk of the town after being shared by numerous people. The video reveals personnel of a towing truck belonging to a local traffic police post installing a no-parking sign minutes after a bunch of two-wheelers were towed from the very same area. The incident occurred near Yari Road in Versova when Kashyap Kapoor had parked their bikes near the road.

'

Moreover, when Kashyap confronts them, they threaten him. For video, with complete audio, see the source link below:-

I think this was later clarified as not being a test ride vehicle.

Himalayan Crash Pictures go viral. One hits a Dio, other drowns.




Royal Enfield is on cloud nine with their latest offering Himalayan, which is the first purpose built bike of India. After the launch a few days ago, the off-roading bike is in headline again, but this time for wrong reason. In Chennai, a granite coloured Royal Enfield Himalayan on its test ride collided with a Honda Dio, and as the picture suggests, the scooter faced serious damage, while the Himalayan also took some hit.





Wait; there is another mishap Himalayan faced. A Himalayan took a dip into the water! Yes, as the image suggests a Himalayan is being dragged out from water, which might be a roadside water body.

Guys, these are accident photos. Please don't fall into believing that there's an actual problem with the bike, although reports across internet (Whatsapp/ Facebook) are directing us to believe that.
Mostly any bike ends up with broken or bent forks in a head on collision, we know that.

Meanwhile, Yamaha imports the M-Slaz 150 (known as the Xabre 150 in Indonesia) along with the Vixion Advance 150 -



I think one of these is going to launch soon.
