        Munjals: What!!!!!!how can you say that to us.We had a deal.My kids crayons drawing was supposed to be the next major update to the ZMR.You never keep your promises....lets split.
        Did you actually read my post before i edited it? i had written the same thing, then felt bad for HMC so i removed it. :P

        A question to the public:
        IS Suzuki dying a slow death globally? Because there hasnt been anything significant from their stable for a few years now. Theyve been focussing on commuter bikes lately which begs this question since they also pulled out from MotoGP

          sounds good indeed
          but only if they decide to lounge them here


          and if the cbr150r was revealed without degradation it would have being such a blessing to choose between r15v2; such huge difference when compared to the thailand spec

          why the heck they didn't introduced the original here

              I think it was to maintain the emission norms.....

                  NO,i did not see your post before it was edited.Besides when is saw your post there were already a couple of others who had posted other replies.

                  You know what they say.Great minds think alike....LOL...But basically similar jokes have been used many times here with different dialogues.

                  About suzuki,they are not dying globally.With the pace others are going suzuki just seems to have slowed down.But definetly not dying.

                    I just hope this bike is NOT NEGLECTED by Bajaj in lieu of their new pulsars...

                      I had seen an interview in CNBC two days ago with Rajiv Bajaj.He said that KTM bike would be launched on 24th January.

                          May be Rajiv Bajaj wants exclusive media coverage for the KTM's launch and hence he kept it off the AUTO EXPO where media's attention is divided ... just may be

                          • It appears honda have got the timing wrong with the cbr150r. Would they have released it a year or 2 back when yamaha had this segment to itself, honda could have made an impact with the cbr150r.

                            Now that the r15 has just got its second wind and is easier than ever on maintainance, how many will be excited for the cbr150r when theres nothing new either in power\torque, looks or features? Since its a new release, spares will probably be heavy on the pocket as well.

                            All said, Id buy it for its novelty value if suzuki dont announce any plans for the segment in the near future.....and by the looks of things, suzuki is happy sleeping under a rock and occasionally farting out awkward sounding commuter 100s and 125s.

                            • CBR looks Amazing, exactly wearing almost the same dress of her elder sibling ,,,,,, Hopefully if it is priced lesser that 1Lac,,,,,,,,, Its a Real steal,,,,,,

                              If even the pulsar looks like a street fighter, it still goes down,,,,,,,,,

                                You said you will buy, and is the same case with me. There will be many like us, and its gonna sell definitely. Youth definitely gets tempted when they see it in the showroom.
