Very very interesting news from ********

Is this a P150?

Bajaj to add another bike in its portfolio of Pulsar 150cc | ******** | Indian Automobile Blog | Car Reviews | Bike Reviews | Test Drive Reports | Pictures | Videos

And, hard to believe a comparision between pulsars and Kawasaki Ninjas.

What???? No one invited me to the marriage of Pulsar and XCD135. Now you people are saying that they are about to have a baby as well....

Damn!

well once bitten twice shy. My 200 is the 1st and the last time i ever invest in a Bajaj product.

If only Honda ventured into the higher segment, i'd love to buy their bike with all their technological goodness

its the pulsar 135

4. The hullabaloo about the name etc is justified. After all people who are concerned are attached to the Pulsar and Bajaj brand. The best example would be the recent IKEA 'font' change from Futura to Verdana. Could you believe a thing simple as this could cause serious outrages in the online world. Have a read.

Bajaj follows the same policy which the manufacturers of other products follow. That is the basic marketing strategy. Why will they still keep producing a product which does not sell?

An example which I can think of is mobile phones. Nokia has many models under the Nseries. So will a person not buy a new Nseries phone just because it is not exclusive(i.e it belongs to the same N series)? This is not the case here. People buy phones by looking at the features and not by looking at the exclusivity. And after a few months or a year the same phone becomes phased out. So will he not buy that phone fearing that it will be phased out in a year? Suppose a person buys a phone for Rs.30000 and the very next week the price comes down to Rs.28000. So will he stop buying phones fearing that the price will come down in a week? Will a person still buy a Nokia phone if they sell the N70 till now and just keep changing the colour of the panel? People want a change in the product and want it to be up to date with the latest technology. If a person fears about losing exclusivity of the product which he buys, then he cannot make a right choice in the first place itself.

This same logic can be applied to bikes. Will a person stop buying a bike only because it is not exclusive or it might be phased out in the future? A person buys a bike for his own pleasure, not for telling others that he has a particular "exclusive" bike, so that they may praise him for getting that bike. A person looks at the features that he is offered at a given price and makes a decision based on that.
