Honda CBX 250


Honda is coming up with 250cc motorcycle in India. As per sources Honda has already completed the R&D work and the bike is going to be launched after couple of months probably at the Diwali session. Currently the 250cc bike segment is being ruled by the only bike available- Kawasaki Ninja 250R which was launched recently and it seems like HMSI is not in a mood to miss the opportunity to give competition to this bike to be called as the only competitor of Kawasaki Ninja 250R on Indian roads.

As it is Kawasaki Ninja 250R is not in budget of many bike enthusiasts who are interested in 250cc category and Honda is going to tame that market by offering much cheaper 250cc bike as compared to Ninja, if sources are to be believed Honda is going to price the new bike under Rs.1.5 lacs, which is a very attractive figure for a 250cc milled bike, that too with world class quality & commitment of Honda.

Apart from expected price and expected time of launch it is not known whether the bike will be a naked- sportster version or a fairied version from Honda. Although what ever will be the form of the bike one thing is sure that it will be the performance bike from Honda’s stable and will definitely quench the thirst of performance biking lovers in all ways

Bajaj Pulsar 220 S


Finally Bajaj has launched its Pulsar 220 S the replica of Pulsar 200. The bike looks almost same as Pulsar 200, which was discontinued sometimes back, actually the heart of the bike is same as Pulsar 220 without fairing and the “S” refers to the “street” version of the Pulsar 220 series.

The bike is being criticized by many bike enthusiasts for its looks, which has nothing new to relish, on the other hand the pricing of the bike is kept very prudent by Bajaj, which will definitely attract many towards the new Pulsar 220S

Yamaha YZF 250- R4


Yamaha is going to surprise all of us by launching a 250cc bike on R1 platform at the upcoming Delhi Auto Expo if we believe the photograph. To our surprise the bike is called R4 with 250cc engine though ideally it should be R2 or R250 but in any case if it is true that Yamaha is ready to compete (and probably going to win) with Kawasaki in 250cc true sports class, then it really doesn’t matter by what name it is going to be launched, isn’t it?

However Yamaha India have not commented on this but we can expect some surprise as committed earlier by the company’s top officials. Coming to the bike it looks like it is a combination of R1 and R6 and I have a gut feeling that if this bike is ever launched in India it will certainly take lead over Kawasaki Ninja 250R, if priced prudently by Yamaha. What are your opinion guys?

2009 Kawasaki ER-6n vs Suzuki Gladius

2009 Suzuki Gladius Comparison
In the market for a new entry level sport motorcycle? We've got two motorcycles from Kawasaki and Suzuki that might fit the bill.
With the sheer expanse of super slab here in the U.S. motorcycles are all about being big: Big power, big speed, and of course big cost. However, a new crop of motorcycles from Kawasaki and Suzuki prove that a motorcycle doesn’t have to go 186 miles per hour, have you stretched out across the fuel tank or cost over ten grand to be fun. Meet the 2009 Kawasaki ER-6N and Suzuki Gladius.

While both of these motorcycles are new in America, their platforms are based off motorcycles we’ve already sampled. The ER-6n is based off the recently redesigned Ninja 650R complete with its friendly, 649cc Parallel Twin cradled in a compact steel chassis and wrapped in sharp futuristic bodywork that turns heads. The Gladius on the other hand is modeled off of Suzuki’s beyond popular SV650 model. It’s powered by a 645cc V-Twin wedged in an easily manipulated steel chassis. Like the ER it features a new contemporary shape. The final similarly is that both of these bikes are affordably priced in the sixes, which mean you get a good amount of thrill for a reasonable price.

On paper these motorcycles are roughly identical, but after a few weeks living with these motorcycles day-in and day-out we’ve discovered some striking difference. So follow along as Motorcycle-USA helps you decide which one belongs in the garage.

For My Money

Adam Waheed, Road Test Editor, 6 foot, 180 lbs:

Honestly, both of these motorcycles would be perfect for a new rider as beyond anything else they are small and easy to ride. But the thing I really like about the Suzuki is that although it’s designed for a newbie, it’s still so well engineered that an experienced rider can hop on it, rip around and come back with as big as a smile on their face as if they just got a GSX-R sportbike. It’s truly amazing how much fun Suzuki infused in this motorcycle. If I was in the market for a new small displacement sporty motorcycle the Gladius would be it.


Steve Atlas, Executive Editor, 5 foot, 8 inches, 150 lbs:

The ER-6n is a funny motorcycle. It is definitely more oriented to someone who is new to the sport of motorcycling. Not to say that the Gladius isn’t, but the Kawi just feels a tad bit smaller, a little more agile, more docile power, etc. When I picked up the Gladius I told Suzuki’s press officer, Garrett Kai, that if I could leave the store and, right off the bat, having never ridden the machine, wheelie the Gladius for the several blocks to the stoplight at the end of the road without putting the front end down, I would give it a good review. And the Suzuki did just that and more. I’ll take a new Gladius please.
