    Does reek exactly of that though !

    In any case, us xBhpians get wind of all the impending launches thanks to people like Manan, Joel, Bandhav etc and hence prospective buyers are able to make well informed and researched purchases.
    One of the perks in being an xBhpian.

    Thats a major hats off to our beloved xBhp. Be the news pure speculation or concrete info !!

    I'm gonna sue our good ol' moderators who work so hard to keep the forum clean and civilized!

    It is really understandable if the video was something taken inside the Bajaj factory, which we have no right to be witness to, unless we've been authorized to do so, but the Pro biking showroom, especially the exhibit area, is as public as public can get. So what's the legality of trying to supress visual information obtained from a public place? We should've really taken a stand and told the guys at Bajaj 'No offence meant Sir, but we think the video should stay, and nobody but you gains from it, thank you.'

    Come to think of it though, getting more technical would mean the inside of the Pro Biking Showroom is after all private property... well I'm out of here!

    Lastly, I think those of us who really care what's gonna come up next from the Bajaj stables, should shoot off a mail to Bajaj, using words like 'If there is any intention to evolve the 200 with the 220 fairing...' and tell them we don't want it. I guess if we ( I assume the most 'aware' consumers ) aren't included in the focus groups Bajaj is using to gauge customer response, we should forcibly include ourselves!

    Let's hope there is a huge 'difference' in opinion amongst the management as to whether continue evolving the Pulsar family with mild changes or go the Yamaha way.

    For the record, in Mr. Rajiv Bajaj's interview with CNBC TV 18 Overdrive, he's mentioned the Pulsar family will continue to evolve and that they also intend to introduce a new bike in the premium segment.

    And if really some senior bloke at Bajaj goes through Xbhp to the extent of sacking a member then he should also hear this loud and clear that P150 really needs some show along with the go to boost Bajaj sales again............removing video and tormenting employees wont help.The employee did a good thing in posting the vid,we have every right to basic information in our India.

    Well I think the video had some marketing strategy of bajaj revealed and it should be kept secret..............however dumb it might be,like riding the wall of a dam or hoping through roof tops or a sister locking up another sister to get a ride....whatever.

So its me .. a common man with not so deep pockets who depends on the regular upgrades from our desi makers and waits for it.
    I think you meant "its Issues" there..

    Is it a national security issue???? what the hell?

    Bajaj shouldn't have put the bikes in showroom in the first place if they didn't want this to be out....if u have a vehicle even in just one showroom, it will reach out to people...simple!!!

    Err.. we come together on XBHP to discuss about bikes right..??
    Old/New/Future Launches.. all counts.

    Me, personally, am waiting for a "warrior" to be released by Bajaj, but that I guess is OT!
