@ the bs6 version when launched was 2.8L showroom if im not mistaken, and it was manufactured indigenously 🤣 duke390 base model was 2.7 ish exshowroom during that timr
They don't care. India is non strategic as they have a certain idea of our messed of civic sense roads etc and zero skill development to match their assembly even
I honestly don't care if Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki don't launch any of their international models here, they treat us like third world countries and also use us as a dumping ground for their stock clearance with exorbitant price tags. . . We have Triumph, KTM, Harley n the looks of it, BMW and our own home brands like Bajaj, TVS, Classic Legends and Hero who are stepping up their games to give us the best products at mouth watering prices. . . The Japanese missed their first mover advantage and honestly, would be surprised if people would hardly buy their products if and when they decide to launch them. . .
People still believe that Japanese motorcycles are reliable, which they really are But other companies you just mentioned are also coming close in terms of reliability
As a Yamaha owner I agree. The spiritual successors for R15 are Aprilia 457 speed tripple zx10r s1000rr None of the Yamaha products are here or make sense. Only Kawasaki makes sense at 10L and beyond and maybe the Hayabusa for the nostalgia.
Xsr900gp is underrated, I love the retro supersport vibe, it works for India too. RE should make a make this on the 450 platform and call it continental GTR
Honda india needs to definitely locally produce cbr 150r, cbr 300r, crf 300 and its rally version in india. They need to get serious its about time. People are done paying for high ckd and cbu costs.
I don't care what yamaha,honda, Husqvarna etc are thinking as us a third country and uses as their stock clearance...we have HERO , BAJAJ , TRIUMPH ETC ARE DOING WELL to deliver us a catchy price adv ✅👍
Wish the tracer 07 and 09 comes to India, also the new R9 looks subjectivity pretty. Ktm's 390 adv R should be priced competitively and bmw might launch the f450gs by the end of 2025 hope so. So many good bikes for India and many left too.
Xsr 900 Gp seems to be only have launched in Europe for now. No idea about North American market even. So I guess, Yamaha does not want to bring it to India but the others most definitely be there!
Manufacturers have a twisted perception of the Indian market which is not helped by our nonsensical import duties and tax laws. Shame that the Indian consumer is deprived of such gems that are available in the International market. That said, Honda and Yamaha's product policy for India is unfathomable indeed. They both need halo models to revv up their big bike sales...
Japanese motorcycles are cheap to maintain and simple perfect for India but still it soo feels like they hate Indian market for some reason like their ex !
I am OK if the cf moto doesn't come to India, coz wel have the tuareg and the bmw. And tuareg would be priced well. So cf moto won't locally make it here.and if they import how will price it . Anyways the only reason it's hyped now coz there aren't any 450 twin adv. Thatl change in 12 months
Tell the indian govt to stop being a mafia like the vetican and at least provide some decent roads where we don't lose a year of life when driving 500 kms at a stretch
They wouldn't come to India as India is still not matured. Japanese manufacturers made up their mind. We don't have the skills to even assemnele Japanese bikes and hurt their DNA. We got to live with what we have. And they did make the comment and Indian roads and practicez don't allow them to push big bikes manufactured here even in the 500 cc
Japanese are risk averse due to their loser mentality. And history of backing the wrong products or charging exhorbitantly for basic engineering. They are still living in the 80's while the world is in 2025.
2:05 what happened to that fellow behind 😂
CF Moto 450 MT is the biggest miss for Indian market i believe 🙂
CF MOTO 450 is doing awesome in Nepal. It's the value for money bike rather than himalayan.
But that is chinese
The cb300r when launched costed more than the duke390, if they launched the crf300l rally just imagine the price buddy😂😂😂 we can't afford it
How much was it
@ the bs6 version when launched was 2.8L showroom if im not mistaken, and it was manufactured indigenously 🤣 duke390 base model was 2.7 ish exshowroom during that timr
They don't care. India is non strategic as they have a certain idea of our messed of civic sense roads etc and zero skill development to match their assembly even
CF Moto...I beg you 🙏 Please come to India
I honestly don't care if Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki don't launch any of their international models here, they treat us like third world countries and also use us as a dumping ground for their stock clearance with exorbitant price tags. . . We have Triumph, KTM, Harley n the looks of it, BMW and our own home brands like Bajaj, TVS, Classic Legends and Hero who are stepping up their games to give us the best products at mouth watering prices. . .

But other companies you just mentioned are also coming close in terms of reliability
You put it really nicely. I totally agree. Yamaha couldn’t even bring XSR 155, which has the same engine as mt 15, if I’m not wrong
As a Yamaha owner I agree.
The spiritual successors for R15 are Aprilia 457 speed tripple zx10r s1000rr
None of the Yamaha products are here or make sense.
Only Kawasaki makes sense at 10L and beyond and maybe the Hayabusa for the nostalgia.
It’s high time Indians boycott Honda activa 😂
you can buy crf 300 rally in Nepal but it cost NRS 23,00,000=IRS14,37,500
CF Moto 450 MT is a really serious contender here......but I wish the CF Lite 250 series was worth it to be launched in India...........
Spot on!!!
Especially what you said about Honda India. They really needs to get their heads out of the Activa comfort zone.
Honda India, summed up in one line 0:39
How to identify quickly
If the vehicle has a sari guard
Definitely it will make it to India
Top 2 on my wishlist - CF Moto MT450 & Tenere 700
Xsr900gp is underrated, I love the retro supersport vibe, it works for India too. RE should make a make this on the 450 platform and call it continental GTR
Tenrere is a must
Indian brands such as Bajaj and TVS should launch affordable mid size ADVs
Honda india needs to definitely locally produce cbr 150r, cbr 300r, crf 300 and its rally version in india. They need to get serious its about time. People are done paying for high ckd and cbu costs.
It will never happen give up😂 honda Yamaha suzuki don't care about India
I love the crf300, was hoping honda to bring it to India, but it's too late, we have kick ass 400s , adventure r, xpulse421 , f450gs
Damn bro you smoke Honda India on their face with Honda India being interested in Activa , good point you got there 😅😅
I don't care what yamaha,honda, Husqvarna etc are thinking as us a third country and uses as their stock clearance...we have HERO , BAJAJ , TRIUMPH ETC ARE DOING WELL to deliver us a catchy price adv ✅👍
4:14 wrong it's dry weight and kerb weight is near Himalayan 450 around 194kg
Wtf was that guy in background doing @2:06
Trolled his yapping😭😭
Should have told something about the XSR 155
we need CF moto for sure
now ik that CF Moto is chinese but they do make good bikes.
Honda Adv would be an amazing launch and very a practical practicle
we pay around 23 lakhs Npr for this bike in Nepal. Ride 250 rally for 5 years, 300 L now is lit
My guy u forgot husky svartpilen 801 as well, if that comes to India it'll take over the market instantly
When klx 230 was launched, I thought Honda would launch the crf 300 soon
CFMoto has already left indian market. Don't keep any hope that they will return anytime soon.
The maxi scooter is my favourite 😍
Mt 450 weighs 171kg dry not kerb. With all liquids added, it would weigh about same as the himi.
Wish the tracer 07 and 09 comes to India, also the new R9 looks subjectivity pretty. Ktm's 390 adv R should be priced competitively and bmw might launch the f450gs by the end of 2025 hope so. So many good bikes for India and many left too.
We need more Activas, with different names, colours, and, designs to obfuscate them.
I think tenerre 700 might come to india since it is showcased in yamaha blue anthem 4.0.
And here I was waiting for CRF.
Damn...Jehan...I am Jealous of you....Enjoying true bliss
I will miss CF MOTO 450MT.
it should come to India
Tenere all day favourite
Honda CRF and CF Moto 450 MT ❤❤
Hondas n Yamaha r more inclined towards scooters India is the new growing market for advs
Xsr 900 Gp seems to be only have launched in Europe for now. No idea about North American market even. So I guess, Yamaha does not want to bring it to India but the others most definitely be there!
Thank God, it's good that there is no hero's name in this
Well said honda is intrested in activa only
Expectations from Honda and Yamaha are ACTIVA and R15 nothing else they want to sell in India which is sad
There is nothing to guess, Honda is only interested in activa
Manufacturers have a twisted perception of the Indian market which is not helped by our nonsensical import duties and tax laws. Shame that the Indian consumer is deprived of such gems that are available in the International market. That said, Honda and Yamaha's product policy for India is unfathomable indeed.

Crf 300 at around 3.2 will sell like crazy
It will cost atleast 4.5L ex showroom
This time adventure tourer bikes 200 to 400cc
Oh man the CRF300 is such a miss
Tenere 700 is always better than others
Japanese motorcycles are cheap to maintain and simple perfect for India but still it soo feels like they hate Indian market for some reason like their ex !
Hard hitting title! 💔💔💔💔💔💔
Tenere is coming to india. Right ?
Searching for bikes that I won't purchase( inspired from the thumbnail)
Cf moto for sure
Tenere 700 😍🔥
Cf moto 450 good looking bike come in india
XSR 155 launch date please
Should Boycott Honda in india
2:06 kinda looks like racist
Suzuki DRZ4?
I am OK if the cf moto doesn't come to India, coz wel have the tuareg and the bmw. And tuareg would be priced well. So cf moto won't locally make it here.and if they import how will price it . Anyways the only reason it's hyped now coz there aren't any 450 twin adv. Thatl change in 12 months
I’ll buy the Tuareg 457 hopefully it won’t lack power
Nepal ayega ye bike aba😀
Boy!!! Never buy scooty! U'll regret!
Honda is only interested in activa
Tenere 700
Why honda why, why cf moto why
Cf moto 450🙃
Tell the indian govt to stop being a mafia like the vetican and at least provide some decent roads where we don't lose a year of life when driving 500 kms at a stretch
Dual sports are not advs.
Honda India doesn't do anything new. Sad.
ab chinese bikes hi bach gya tha

They are still living in the 80's while the world is in 2025.
