  • Yes, IIIIIIII was there.....

    sorry, can't hold back my feelings, hehe. Me and my brother (nitinsen) were there to witness the legend, with sparkling eyes the greatest man to ever grace the world of motorcycle racing. This is what is called a one in a lifetime oppurtinity.

    This, my friends, is a new year gift

    • ^^ sadly Hero honda does not want to appeal to the crazy mad biking community. Their target is the common man, from 30+ to a 100 years old. And no matter how hor.ny they might be, the company does not want to scandalize their target audience with skimpily clad women next to the bikes!!!

      • 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.

                        • 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.

                          • 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

                              • It would have helped, of course if hero honda had decided to put even a fraction of the amount spent on paying Hrithik roshan and the other girls in the making of meaningless and filmi kinda advertisements for the telly on some R&D .I mean real R&D ,not the stickering work which they are famous for.Then they wouldn't have been so dependent on "Bade Bhaiya" resulting maybe in some more bikes rather than some water works.Sorry ,waterfall!! at their display.
