You want a poll eh?

What say you wait 9 friggin days and find out for yourself??!!!

The ownership thread will then show how many xbhpians have bought it at whatever price bajaj decides to sell it at.

seriously, where do you people come from? i'm getting pretty sick and tired of the idiocy shown by some members here. isn't this a news thread?

Now thats kickass. Way too many sand castles building here!

Now that was'nt necessary julian.. was it pal? I, for sure didnt at all mean to make you sick, already the Swine flu fobia running havoc.. surely, 9 friggin days would tell us, who is gonna buy, but given the current state, where price speculation seems to be ruling the roost with very few sources in hand (read BS motoring report) , i thought of putting that.
A little restraint in choosing words sometimes helps.


i rather wanted to see, if any folks around here would go in for the supersport, if its priced above 3 L, rather than day dreaming about it getting launched sub 2L price bracket. Was not building sand castles mate!

honestly regret the OT.

brother, see in the poll section...it already exist

@Dilip Arya - We have told that the first lot is 50. Not just 50 bikes....

a OT being posted by me.....
food for thought
after the launch of ninja what will we guys speculate on...........??
posibly some bike from royal enfeild

Sorry that your post had to take the heat but it's been goin on for a while now, and sometimes harsh words get the message across.

And as you have so clearly put it, there's a lot of speculation going on, when this is the goddamn news section of the forum.

I don't understand why people can't accept the NEWS for what it is, wait for the bike (ok, so it's been years, sue bajaj for that), test ride it, then post about the bike. Instead it's comparisons with every friggin moped known to man, arguments about unknown pricing, and general BS about a bike nobody has even seen other that 1.3mp cellphone spy shots!

I'm sure that if the mods were to delete all non-news related posts in this thread, like they should, the page count would be under 5 instead of thirty friggin one pages of utter crap.

just checked out the poll thread and even that's 12 pages of more price speculation than opinions on pricing. yes there is a difference.

Honestly, wading through all the junk on xbhp has become a really tiring affair, most people just post whatever first pops in their heads instead of relevant and useful stuff. I've been here for about 6 years now, but it's just too much these days.

agree.. am waiting for the d'day (05/10 supposedly)

what??? how did i miss this??? finally it will be launched ... excited!!!

p.s : i was thinking of telling stories about baby ninja(coming to india) to my grand children

There are still some sensible people left in this forum!

I certainly hope so...because I need more riders who can keep up with my bike during G2Gs and stuff...

Some photos of the Ninja 250R found on the net:

Easy pal. News are what triggers such discussions. Its merely reflects people's excitement. Its interesting how we ourselves can become like children bubbling with excitement. I know there are plenty of junks out there but there are good information as well. Thats the nature of blogs/forums and you have to accept that for what it is. We have moderators to clean unacceptable materials.

You see, I probably may not be able to own the Ninja, but Im equally as excited as the person who might actually buy one .

I agree with Julian Paul. Why not keep the news and comments separate?

As this forum is growing bigger, the pages are increasing too. Now, we have 16 pages (by 20 post/ page basis)... Where to search for REAL info?

BTW The words could have been politer. But, the message did get across...

OT: Once the bike is launched, shouldnt the mods take action on all those who speculate the wrong info? Or have so called 'concrete' news from their trustyworthy sources?

I feel this should be done for every new bike launch. Like when ZMR was launched. Or when this Ninja 250R will be launched. Some sort of a soft ban or putting all these usernames under a 'do not trust' category can also help in future : when other new bikes will be coming our way so that members know here whom to trust and whom not to.. my 2 cents to reduce unwanted posts / fights here

+1 to your points Bunny bhai
this way atleast the false speculations which leads to useless threads and discussions would be stopped and it would make xBhp more reliable with info and specification of the upcoming bikes
