2012 Bike Launch Speculation Thread

I have a feeling that BAL will be downsizing displacements of its entire Discover portfolio one by one.

Starting with the new gen Discover 125ST with specs almost Identical to the Discover 150, I feel that this new gen 100/104 cc Discover will sport specs almost identical to the current 2-valve Discover 125 but with the smaller displacement engine offering better fuel economy than the 2-valve Discover 125.

That way they can still keep on offering a 13Ps Discover and an 11Ps Discover which are more fuel efficient than the older gen 13/11Ps Discovers. Thats when they can truly say bye bye to the old gen Discovers.

Wow...that's great news....really really interesting...

Yep, why should they launch a 500, they already have a 600cc sport, sport tourer and a naked. a 400/350 sports/st would be ideal(which was in news once) to fill the gap between 250 and 600 and competition wise(ninja), i think.
@ pic,the cbr looking great in that angle but that end can on that hornet looking ugly

Edit: lol just saw a 'clearer image of cbr500h' on net! Faq a 250 twin?? ends excitement for me

Honda is to launch an ultra-high cost, super-sophisticated road-going replica of its MotoGP RC213V to go on sale within two years. That was the promise of Honda boss Takanobu Ito last week.

Nah...not a new bike. The full ad was shown yesterday during Pak-SL match. He's just running away with a girl and hoping from one Hero bike to another in order to run away from the bad guys. In the end when he has to surrender and is made to jump off a bridge with hands tied into a river a la A-Team scene takes place....the girl comes, gives him a passionate kiss and in the process sticks the key of his handcuffs into his mouth. Ranbir jumps - opens the cuffs and comes out - and is ready for another HERO-ic stunt. Tada!

No new bike...just to show that Ranbir Kapoor is Hero's brand ambassador.

Here it is...god knows what they want to do...
