@niks_devil666: 3 questions:
1. Did they confirm it is a CKD? According to the last press release they said it would be CBU.

2. What internal changes have been done to the silencer? Has the note been toned down to suit Indian 80 db norms? Can we have a pic of the same?

3. How come the rear tyre is 140 section when International spec is 110 front&130 rear?

yes a CKD , thats what we were told.

We didn't discuss the internals of the exhaust. The note was pretty good and had a good bass.

I was mostly discussing stuff with those two guys and didn't actually look at the nitty gritties , but yes definitely 130 or 130+ rear. Front is 110.

Sounds good. Was expecting a saree guard too, as its mandatory by RTO!
Anyways, wonder why they would only cosmetically mod the silencer...
In the course of your conversation, did he say anything about the likely pricing?

The tyres are IRC 110/70 x 17 (front) and 130/70 x 17 (Rear). All bikes will come with OE IRC rubber straight from Thailand.

seems a case of sour grapes from Yammie fan

the Ninja also costs around 2 lakhs there . the difference there betwwen Ninja and R6 is more than double the price .

Another thing to Note is that this bike is quite comfortable also and has power spread over a larger band than the peaky r15 engine .

yes ,i have seen & sat on the bike during my trip to singapore .
the fit finish is ages below fz16 or even pulsar for that matter,
there r blaring gaps everywhere .i didnt feel like it was a quality product
thats all

@Anirudh: That's quite some words. Please do elaborate about the "blaring gaps" part, please.

well, what Anirudh is saying isn't entirely wrong. The 250R does have some panels gaps specifically on the reat tail light unit and also a little on the side fairing, but its definitely not an eye sore or worse than any Indian bikes. Its jus not completely on par with international fit-n-finish.

But its surely not as bad as he thinks it is.

Right. Felt the same when I sat n saw one in Thailand. It looks sad n feels like an Adreno

I hope they dont just launch that model here.
R15/ZMA/P200/P220/RTR looks way better than that thing.

P.S: But the one in the pic here looks much fleshy n better n different, from whatever I can figure out of that pic.

**IBP_20bhp** · 08-21-2009, 03:51 AM

Some bajaj service engineer told me that the so called awesome or yaaack! NINJA KWACKER or watever will be launched in 2 months with a Twin cylinder and with a cost of around 1.5L(Don't know what he was talking about after reading all the posts here.......i remember him saying "NOT SURE" somewhere). This happened a week before this post started.
