      Yes, the colour combination isn't that appealing.

            They need to price it below 1.2 lacs otherwise it will suffer again. It doesn't matter what they are bringing to the table, the thing which matters the most in India is pricing and more importantly they have very well placed rival in the form of R15 which is a better bike with better pricing also. All in all honda should undercut R15 cost wise if they want a winner.

              Correctly said. The present CBR150 is overpriced IMO. Honda needs to take that into consideration. Also, they need to upgrade the quality of the switchgears.

                  Looks very good. To me, the slightly compact dimensions of CBR 150R have always looked better than 250R.

                      I think honda should tweak its engine to produce at least 2nm more torque and they should use it to give it some good low-end grunt also as it lack low-punch in comparison to R15 which is much better tuned machine.

                        Hmm......if only honda prices it around 1.2 lakhs or lesser will they be able to compete with r15 in this price sensitive market like ours . Fingers crossed

                            This is a very old thread. Another update after this one has already come and no, we Indians are not getting any.
