    Yup, you should do so. Unless we here some info about the India launch, the discussions won't come to an end.

    It's better to lock it before some comparisons/brand wars stem up.

    True and I am assuming the HX250R will do the justice for me.. somewhat inclined towards the HX250R

    i might just wait and wait till I save enough money for a 600 cc bike at max if I am not happy with any of the quarter liter bikes..

    HX250, power may not be really enough. Above 35ps should provide at least a 120kmph cruising speed.
    It's mostly either R25/R3 or N300 for me.

    Ride quality is mostly not something you can expect on a track setup bike.
    Exhaust note others can hear more than us (the engine is so noisy that you can't hear the silencer! ) But all the same, it's not pleasant.
    I was more concerned about the overheating (on a naked bike if it's this much, just imagine how much the faired one will heat!), lack of refinement, warm start problem, lack of seat space, the list is endless

    CBR300, I don't really expect it to be exciting.
    HX250, power may not be really enough. Above 35ps should provide at least a 120kmph cruising speed.

    Same pinch. I didnt find the bike too good.. especially the ride quality.. i didnt like the exhaust note as well.. i am expecting the pulsar 390 to be the same in terms of ride quality.. i am now waiting for the Hero HX250R, R25 and the CBR300..

    Keep that feeling with yourself.
    Dont worry your dream of revving the engine in Bangalore traffic would be fulfilled.
    When, even I cant assure.

    Anyways keeps hope high and follow drooling pics.
    Moreover, not a single word has come out my Yamaha India Marketing team, so yes it would be too early to predict or claim anything by anyone.
