    If I remember correctly, Honda said they will come out with a 250cc offerring in 2011. This one is out of the blue.

    I have my doubts on the pricing. Sane pricing? Honda? hmmm...I am not optimistic

          it seems to be another speculation....... at least we'll be busy with something....... but if Honda brings it by Diwali, then it'll be a great achievement for them.......

            Diwali..is not so far.

            I have been riding around on a Dio for close to 5months now. I dont want to wait till Diwali. Lets just say even if the 250 from Honda launches for Diwali, by the time a proper bike test and review is done it would be jan or feb 2011.

            So I am going ahead with my plan to pick up a bike this monthend. I finalized on R15.....but as I am planning to use it only for a year
            (will buy the 250 by feb nxt year) which bike has the maximum resale value ...the r15 or 220 Dtssi.

              a friend of mine sold his 220 ddtsi run for 8000kms for 68000...so either the dealer is dumb or resale was good...i was actually waiting for honda at the auto expo to come up with a 250cc and now gonna get one if it does release at diwali

                I agree.They'd brand it as Premium Sh*t (ala Jazz) and sell for inflated amount.

                  Something is better than nothing, is'nt it? A proper 250-cc mill produced in India, even if it is priced a 20 to 30k extra, will keep the prospective customers happy. With no compeition, you cannot even say they are charging a premium (but, I am sure they will do) (Jaaz has competition and has been kicked out as expected).

                              It seems it could be the Honda CBX Twister 250
