AFTER the launch of Pulsar 220cc(the fastest Indian) from bajaj and the much awaited Hero Honda 220-250cc(ZMR). Yamaha was also thinking to launch its 250cc bike in September. As Yamaha told that this bike might be the fastest Indian bike.

AS Yukimine Tsuji, managing director and chief executive officer, India Yamaha Motor, told Financial Chronicle on the sidelines of the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (Siam) annual convention. "“We are not thinking of launching a bike in that (225-250 cc) range this festival season"

However the division head of product planning and brand management of the company told that We will launch a bike that would not only be the fastest in India, but it would be the fastest in the world.”

So keep your fingers crossed for a fast and thrilling future.

HERO HONDA finally realized that they have to upgrade their bike (Karizma) which was launched in 2003 since then the bike had the same technology without upgrade for six years, it was lagging behind with the likes of YAMAHA R15, BAJAJ PULSAR 220 and TVS Apache 180 .

HERO HONDA is testing the new Karizma (pic courtesy of Autobild Magazine) which is expected to go on sale by September. As expected the new Karizma gets cosmetic styling changes in front fairing and rear cowl. It might also get a LED tail lamp cluster as in CBZ Xtreme and a new exhaust. The new Karizma will also get gas charged reservoir suspension as in the Hunk. However whether the new Karizma is Fuel Injected or not we cannot confirm now. But what we can say you is the new Karizma gets a rear disc brake. The need for disc brake might be because of upward revising of power and torque ratings.

We will have to wait and see if this move by Hero Honda actually does any good for them

HH Hunk 25th Aniversary Upgrade

The all Muscle hunk is all ready with an upgraded body colors. Although this upgrade is announced this weekend but the vehicle was available in the showrooms from January 2009 when actually the Hero Honda's 25 yr anniversary started.

The Featured upgrade is totally cosmetic just by adding new stickering job on the bike's fuel tank, the Hero Honda's favorite RED Alloys, Red GRS Suspension, Red color front Suspension and Dual tone Seat cover.

Although the stickers are fresh but it seems that over here they have just a bit overdone it. The paint job on the Alloys and the suspension seems like just a coat of new color over the previous one. One more thing that we saw here was that the Engine head was also Red in color on top of the all black engine. We don't know where the muscles have gone but yes new clothes are there.
