      I have a very Legitimate query when considering a Honda: Does it have pass light switch, pilot/parking lamp, and engine kill switch???

      AND, what kind of *segment shattering* 0-60 acceleration figures are we looking at? (CB Dazzler : 5.2sec, RTR160 : 4.8sec)

      Or are they referring to the roll-on timings ?? I do expect Roll-ons to be quite good considering the low 103kmph top speed.
      Advice is a form of nostalgia.
      Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

        Just as i expected. The 4 releases every year basically means the existing models get a make up every year with new graphics/ body panels but using the same old engines with minor tweaks for fuel efficiency. This Trigger is just the beginning. When Honda handed the Stunner and Twister to Hero, i did say that Honda was going to phase them out and launch new models to replace them. Now that Dazzler and Stunner are out of the market, and that we have witnessed the new Dazzler, the next disappointment is in the form of a newly designed 125cc CBF Stunner ... obviously with a new name.
        The only exciting product late this year or early 2014 is this

          what about the quality of the switch gears and also pass flash switch and does it have an engine kill switch. . ? We don't want this to have minor negative points like that in CBR150R which made the CBR look a bit low. . . With so much offerings from this bike, like the first new CBS system in India, I hope they do not miss out small things which are mentioned above. . . Anyways, nice bike, cool thing to ride. . .

              Don't expect engine kill switch; and as for me, it doesn't cause any inconvenience or discomfort. There is a pass switch and a single pilot lamp located in the bottom of headlight housing. This is the second Honda product (after new Dio) that got a pilot lamp (both CBR150R and 250R have them).

                So it is by by time for the dazzler... This thing is identical to Dazzler, the only difference I have been able to spot as of now is that there is a pilot lamp in the head light which is not present in the Dazzler. And like most Honda's I am pretty sure this will lack the engine kill switch, everything else will be there in the switch gear, pass light et. al.

                    ^^ If you apply rear brake, the front brake will be applied automatically in required proportions. The same thing is there in Aviator Disc version. Lets see if they have done any modifications.

                            Okay, just checked; I have been thinking its only in drum brake versions and not in disc version of the Aviator. I stand corrected. Thanks for pointing.

                            But, how would using rear brake in a bike would activate the front brake is to be seen. In fact, I feel it should be the other way round in bikes. Front brake is the main source for braking and handling in motorbikes. Rear brake pedal controlling both front and rear brakes is not a good idea, I feel.

                              If you're talking about the ABS, then, no. It doesn't have it.

                              The company is taking this country very seriously.
                              Honda, why you no release 600RR then???
