Point Well PlacedOriginally posted by rennycornelius View PostOk fine then, discontinue that engine and launch the 4 valve head right from 150 to 180 and to 220, BUT, save us from the same engine in the next cc bump.
My question was,is and will be is that after so many years in the motorcycle busniness of INDIAn manufacturers and taking lessons from the JV's they had with foriegn firms, BAJAJ with KAWASAKI, TVS with SUZUKI, and now BAJAJ having shares in the KTM, why they are taking so much time to develop a home grown parellel twin 4 valve 250??
I DOnt think there will be limited or few takers of it.... look at the sucess story of NINJA and R15, both are by the FIRMS who do not belong to INDIA.
And look at us, depending on the JAPS to feed us with a performance bikes cuz our indian manufacturers are so busy making profits out of 100,102,107,108,110,125,135,150,160,180,200,220,22 3 CC bikes.
Thank god they left the 115 CC segment, and i wont be surpriced if at the end of the year BAJAJ comea up with 115CC discover and surely we'll have ba 115CC sefment with BAJAJ as the king os sales in it followed closely by a new bike from TVS, and YAMAHA stables.
I mean they want to fill each and every segment, if they conduct a survey and will find that a certain region of india will be happy with 170CC bike to then we will surely have PULSAR170 and RTR170 in the line up.
well said.You Wont See Me In U'r RVM.. Coz U'll Be In Mine

There is no need for costly FI technology for Unicorn's engine. The Unicorn's carburetted engine is so good. Honda is doing a big blunder if they are using the same unicorn mill without "significant" power bump up for CB Dazzler. Nobody is expecting a rear disk and styling just with the a puny 150cc mill, which will make the bike very pricey.
Honda will see success only if the engine is significantly powered up (may be with bigger cc). Otherwise, it would just go the way of Stunner FI.HH Karizma (Current) || CBF Stunner PGM-FI || Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler

Expecting it to be CBZ-X engine. Even more power (implies more price) to that..I prefer ZMA better buy over it.2007 - Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme
2008 - Yamaha YZF R15
2009 - Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme
