Be it Hero, Honda, Bajaj, TVS or any other Big Player.. i value their products.. but i prefer an Indian Player over the Japanese Players...

    Honda never let Hero start their own RnD

    When people say he love Hero motorcycle over Bajaj or TVS, I feel sad when they don't know till now HERO doesn't invest penny Rs. on R&D or self made tech. in compare Bajaj and TVS started with their company with help of Japanese co, and they did R&D at own center and made bikes for US.

    That's precisely why many people, me included, are prepared to wait for six more months and shell out more $ (relative to the competition) for the R25. I want a hassle free bike on which I can tour without getting bored on long highways. I'm expecting the R25 to be just that kind of bike.

    0-100, top speed is just academic. How it achieves those numbers is what makes or breaks your day....Sorry to interrupt.

Why do you think the RC is such an inferior product I have no idea. Both the bikes are really good in what they are designed to do and lets respect that.
    You are bringing the N300 to the comparo too? The Ninja 300 easily betters the R25 from the initial reviews at 0-60, 0-100, top speed etc.
    If the pricing is crosses 3 lakhs then definitely i'm dropping out. I want a Yammie but not at any cost they dish out at.

    i didnt say RC being inferior in that post. my question was to legend racer on his post.

    FYI if we are not getting ninja300 in this then why get the RC390? just because its gonna be cheaper?

    I guess he is disagreeing with you on that line. same as me. no idea why you mentioned triumph (they dont have contenders on 250cc in india.)

    is this just another post like the previous posts where arguments started on pricing and who will buy n what bike and all crazy stuffs? other than the SPECULATED pricing of RC390 and the power fig give a good reason why you would pick the RC over r25. or lets say even the ninja250/300.

    and "Some are selling 40 horses at wheels at just 2 lakh INR with very minimal service cost", again, are you kidding?
