Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India, the wholly-owned two-wheeler subsidiary of Japanese major Honda Motor Co, is looking to launch at least two high-end 1,000cc bikes and an advanced 100cc motorcycle in the country by the end of 2008-09, reports Our Bureau from Kolkata.
The two high-end 1,000cc bikes may be priced at over Rs 10 lakh and will target a super-niche segment. Outlining the company’s future plans during the launch of its second 125cc model CBF Stunner, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India president & CEO S Aoyama said: “The new launches, along with the CBF Stunner, is slated to contribute about 10% towards the company’s total turnover during the year.
While CBF Stunner will generate an additional 8% towards the company’s turnover, the other launches will help improve earnings by 2%.

would they be the CBR 1000RR & CB1000 ?
or mebbe CBR 1000rr & one the following two : vfr800 & GLX1600 Goldwing
Well, CBR1000 is not coming for at least 2 years, that's final n damn sure, but personally i only n only pray for CBR 600RR as according to me, in India, 600 is the max fun to have n you could really accelerate 600 somewhere but 1000????? i don think so, for me 1000 is for self satisfaction, i also wish for 1000RR but if i have the option for both then i'd definately go for 600RR as i'm in India with every road to hell. BUT STILL I LOVE MY COUNTRY TO DEATH........... MIND IT :)
One more thing, whatever comes 1000 or 600 it'll be RR series, it's for sure.
can't be 600. govt. allows bikes over 800cc only. so it'll have to be the 1000RR & another one the other 3 bikes mentioned above
i love honda bikes. cbf stunner is my best bike.
