ll2 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) It must be cheaper to get upside down fork in India i guess! Nearly all small bikes coming from there have them, it does not mean they are better than conventional forks though.

ktm jeff Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 USD forks cost slightly more and will be a benefit on some bikes - but look far more stylish on all bikes.This bike has a decent looking swing-arm and "shotgun" exhaust.Tread on rear tire looks strange!.Hope issues with Honda build quality and the known CBR 250 engine faults have finally been sorted.Would make a very nice town bike if you dont fancy a Kawasaki D-Tracker.I would think the price will be around 160,000/170,000 Baht.Much higher and you would be better off going for a KEEWAY RSV 200.

bramds Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 If it is made in India, we will probably never see it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If inverted forks cost a lot more than conventional ones, believe me you don't see them coming from India/China that many. and a pogo stick has also upside down configuration.

ktm jeff Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 There has been many reported problems with Hondas , as repeatedly reported on this site.Camshaft/ valve and cam chain areas seems to be main problem areas (including shattering valve shims).I didnt say USD forks cost a lot more - i said slightly - and the main benefit on run-around bikes such as this one is cosmetic (which i approve).I hope the Honda handles better than your po-go stick LOL!The more i look at this bike , the more i like it.Just goes to show that Honda can build nice looking bikes if they put some effort in.When i say Honda , i mean an Indian/ Chinese company using locally sourced parts , including maybe some from Thailand/Taiwan etc .Lets hope they release it , giving people more market choice.
