Scoop photo of a motorcycle undergoing test in Delhi clicked..?? Could it be a new 2010 Honda motorcycle for India..??
DNA India had reported a couple of months back about a new 250 cc motorcycle from Honda India (HMSI) to be launched in Diwali 2010. Post that, there has been no further news about it either from HMSI or any another publication.
...it is clearly visible that the motorcycle has a monoshock suspension
Today, a scoop photo of a new motorcycle was clicked by an xBhp.Com member (coffin on wheels) in Manesar (near Delhi). Accoding to him, the motorcycle under test was doing speeds of around 110 kmph with ease.

Not much can be seen in the photo clicked, but according to him the motorcycle did have a big fuel tank which was kind of a similar (but bigger) in design as the recently launched 110 cc CB Twister. From the photo it can be seen that the chain cover is an exposed one. Also it is clearly visible that the motorcycle has a monoshock suspension at the rear.
Could it really be Honda India's new 250 cc performance motorcycle for India..?? Or could it be a motorcycle based on the Unicorn "Sports Concept" shown at the 2010 New Delhi Auto Expo..??
I have a strong feeling that it could be the latter probably with a slightly larger engine (160-180 cc) and not a 250 cc engine.
Honda Unicorn Sports Concept

Does't look too exciting from the photos. Typical Honda 'boring' stuff
Its just because of its Activa Scooter that Honda shows some decent sales numbers. else Honda's motorcycles sales in India is actually quite poor
This can't be a 250cc by any means. It has to be something way smaller. Also, notice the very commuter oriented posture of the rider. The Rear Fender, Tail Light and the Grab Rail match with the "Sports Concept" of Unicorn. I also have a strong feeling that it has to be the Unicorn "Sports" or what ever version.
- Monoshocks
- Clear tail lamps
- Nice big fat swing arm (Suggests its a Unicorn upgrade)
- Tyre doesnt look more then 110 ,
The mudguard, The bulbed tail lamp, the half chain cover suggest the CB Unicorn concept
eh...why did someone even bother to click this!!??
This is for sure "Honda Unicorn Sport Concept" shown at Auto Expo 2010.
Seems none of the bike companies (except Bajaj & Hero Honda) are serious about upgrading to higher caliber bikes with affordable prices for both college youth, executives and family people.
Even the executives & family people looking for more powerfull and decent bikes (not the sports one).
it is looking like the unicorn sports concept shown in auto expo. wish is would have good power output with lighter weight.
