    My wish list goes like this:

    Pulsar line-up.. needs a lighter & agile chasis..

    4-valve engine.. which redlines at 12-14k
    monoshock & rear disc..

    even P135 should get monoshock & rear disc to keep Pulsar DNA in tact.

    I don't mind even if the design is not changed much.. substance is much more important than style. Just imagine what P220 can do with 4-valve head.. already it can touch 140kmph.. with 4-valve.. it can easily go upto 150kmph!!..

    can't really for get KTM's & bigger Ninja's.. but anyway.. they will be out of my budget

    From Honda.. I beg them to give atleast 4-valve 125cc engine to Stunner to compete well with P135.. then it'll be a real stunner. oh yeah.. please bring in non-fi(carb version) CBR250.. so that people with 1 lakh budget can also get a taste of it!!

    To Yamaha.. please replace the engine in Fazer to make it 200/250 cc 4-valve/parallel twin..whatever.. the bike deserves it..

    as far as FZ goes.. try a detuned R15 engine (may be 15/15 power & torque).. shift the FZ engine to SZ-R atleast, not in detuned state, but in retuned state to have better initial & mid ranges.
    Thumbs up to the wishlist!!!!!!!!!! Fazer really should have a 15 bhp heart.

                    Mojo..!!

                    At 1.75 lakhs ex-showroom, I have my doubts how many will sell. Especially after the launch of the Honda CBR250R at 1.5 Lakhs ex-showroom.

                      Mojo being a 300cc should have slightly better spunk(hopefully) which should enthuse some naked/street bike lovers. But still, as a product it will be a herculean task for Mojo(Mahindra) to prove the case for itself!!

                        Mojo will certainly have to go back to the drawing board. First, its looks were not widely accepted and now its being beaten on price.

                        M&M will have to pull a rabbit out of their hat for it to succeed...

                          Both bikes supposedly produce 26bhp (Mojo and CBR250r) therefore it all comes down to the price,design and marketing of these two products. But the way CBR is getting response, mojo surely has to have something special to overcome the CBR

                              Seems that, all expected launches for 250cc range in 2011 are single clinder - 'tourer or sportster' yet everyday use bikes.

                              I hope for a better Ninjette - Ninja 250.
                              Well either they could localise the current one or style the existing one drawing inspiration from 1000cc Ninja 2011
                              So it is either offer the current one at somewhere in 2 - 2.5 Lakh range or get a new styling @ same price, possible ?

                                Kawasaki have absolutely no reason to "upgrade" the 250R. it is the best 250 out there.

                                they just redid it a couple of years ago... so the current design will stay for a while now.

                                Bajaj can and prolly will consider pricing it slightly lower tho.
