is honda not going to get into the race for the 200cc and 200+cc segment bikes?

mrstyx · 15th March 2007, 03:54

man i waited almost for 2years now, taking rumours for granted that honda would launch 200cc and 200+cc bike into the indian market but all invain, and i decided to go for KARIZMA instead bcoz i had a pulsar(180) before and the gearbox problem pissed me off realbad!!!!!!. And i expect the same in the 200 and 225 pulsar too dont you guys expect that in the new pulsars???
say what you you guys do u think i am doing the right thing by buying the kariZMA or should i wait?

Everyone is here to make money buy dumping 3 rd world products and technology.Buy whatever you have now and enjoy ,even IF they launch something ,sell and upgrade.

I am also waiting for a 250cc bike from hero honda.

I currently ride a CBZ star

For you if money is not a concern, go in for a 2nd hand ZMA, sell it off when a 250cc comes out.

If money is a concern, you should wait. But till now there are bleak rumours about a hh's new bike.

As far as HH is concerned..they will not launch a 250 cc bike,the Karizma with a Fuel Ignition was on the Cards but tht plan was also dropped and hence the all "NEW" Karizma with Super Duper Graphics was Launched.The Pulsar 225 is a brilliant bike,The Gear Problem was only an issue in the 1st gen pulsars.

sweet dreams the gearbox was not much of a problem in the classic not in the later versions gearbox is the major issue of any pulsar ask allthe pulsar owners you know and they will tell how it sucks during the downshifts it actually gets stucks of has false neutrals!!!!!!!!!!!

I was wondering if honda is planning to release 200cc and 200+cc into the market as competition to karizma and pulsar 225cc? although i have read the article that says honda is planning to import 500+cc bikes to sell through the local dealers, i just wanted to know if there are plans for the 200+cc segments? any info?

Stop Believing the media wrIting rubbish on newspapers.. When there's big confusion with Yamaha.. what more... i am patiently waiting for the fazer 250 to come out which i know will take quiet long to come. Go in for the Karizma.. its good machine....

rider60 · 30th March 2007, 23:45

can some body please tell me what is stopping the pulsar dts-fi(225cc) from being launched in hyderabad?

also i have heard (rumours i guess) cbz sportz 225+cc was due for launch if so i would love to know when are these 225+cc bikes from hh, honda yamaha and other makers to be launched?

well, latest bike launch in hyderabad is the upgraded unicorn with mags and other body mods... launched about 4 days ago...
