      The bike looks much better in red than the black. But those dated 3 spoke alloys need to be replaced with contemporary ones. Other wise the looks subastantial(big) and good.

          Those alloys look good to me. The worst pain-area is the headlamp. I'd prefer a simple, round headlamp or a better-looking cowl. Oh, while cribbing, I might as well add the taillamps - current taillamp mimics a Hayate/Slingshot. The GS150's taillamp unit looks way better. Best part of the Inauzma (IMO) - it's analog-digital instrument cluster which is one of the most beautiful ones seen on a 250!

          Biking is not about how many Km/h you put on your Speedo. It's about how many miles you put on your Odo. Ride Safe, Ride Long!

            Indeed I am falling in love with the speedo console.. and the bike looks pretty good to me. Like said, the head lamps look a little awkward.. lets wait and see how the bike is gonna look in flesh suzuki.. I am waiting..

                Internationally (specifically, the US), the Suzuki is priced at $3999 against the $4699 for the CBR250R ABS. Very rough calculations would reveal a price of appx 1.5 Lacs.

                  Anything below 1.3L would make it a winner otherwise people would still prefer cbr over this one..

                  Any idea whether it is being manufactured in India? If yes. The possibilities of it being as low as 1.3 is high..

                      Not now, but in future. Its coming CKD way now.

                        So it would be a great disappointment just like Triumph. Please dont remain in bubble to have it priced below 1.5L, it will more than that.

                          Umm, it can still be priced 1.5L ex showroom. Its not a CBU, but a CKD. CBU's would mean >1.5L for sure.

                            CKD would mean a slightly better build quality compared to locally manufactured units. But it would also mean a dearth of spares and flippy service. Suzuki is already seeing red in this department.

                              Absolutely right. Even the spares of locally manufactured vehicles find it difficult to keep the spares in stock. Like how most of the ZMR owners are facing. Lets hope for the best. Cost cutting without any affect on the quality would be most welcomed..
