    Fellow bikers Hot news.....

    It's a confirmed news that Yammy is planning to Launch 250cc model....Whether it's FZ 250 or YZF R250 is still unknown..Components for test developement have been given out to many major vendors.

    But the concept 250 bike was taken out at the last minute before the show... I believe they want the consumers to create a pull based demand...however lots of developement still pending, also no upgrade in R15 was done just to avoid cannibalism in it's own segment. Hence don't loose faith

    As Haxor has pointed out, nice to see another manufacturer from this part of the world. These bikes can be a hit in Rural india for sure.

    They are leaving the 16-30 age group people to Honda
    I think you know that very well and honda is offering what?Unicorn,stunner ,aviator,activa.You have got variety! Here you got reason to smile!and say "Dhaaaak Dhaaaaaaak Gooooooooooo"

    The "Shark" font is too much like the Hero Honda Hunk, and the meters are from the old Pulsars. Thankfully these bikes are being manufactured here only, so less chinese input to the same. The silencer on the 150cc looked a lot like one of those aftermarket cans, and the build quality more so.

    My friend from kolkatta was telling me that Saurav Ganguly either owns this company indirectly or has invested a lot of money in it. dint know he was into biking or starting a business.
