                  THINKING it
                  I don't see the bike but i think it will be a killer machine, and destroyer of every bike uder 500cc. so it can make a good market in india if it low price and good service and low maintenance then it would be the first mini superbike for every indian middle class family, and in my personal view if it come onroad under 5 lakh then it would segment killer.
