Mahindra’s MOJO 300 is Caught Again in Pune

If you have been reading and waiting eagerly about the big bikes in the 250-400cc segment like the Honda cbr400, Duke 390, Pulsar 375 among others, here is one bike you just cannot afford to sideline.

Mahindra Mojo has been caught again in Pune by a reader of Indian Autos Blog. The bike is hidden but hey, what’s that? We notice a single circular headlamp in place of the two Mahindra has been displaying till now. We were aware of Mahindra working on a redesign of this bike and it appears here it is.

Mahindra Mojo will be powered by an in-house developed 300cc DOHC 4 valve Fuel Injected motor which will produce power output of 26bhp and a maximum torque of24Nm. These figures are old and there are chances that Mahindra might work on them as well. So, all those who are bored of seeing the same faired, naked motorcycles, here is a manufacturer who is trying to be different. Mojo looks different and we hope Mahindra will price it aggressively. So, is this the next big thing in India?

2013 Kawasaki Ninja India launch tomorrow.Excited?

Only yesterday we reported that the first batch of Kawasaki Ninja 300 sportsbike have reached Bajaj-Probiking dealerships.
Powering the Ninja 300 is a 296cc, liquid cooled, parallel twin motor which benefits from dual throttle valves. The Ninja 300 has a peak power output of 39 PS@11000 RPM and has a max torque output of 27 Nm@10,000 RPM. The power is transmitted to the rear wheel through a six speed manual gearbox. The footwear on the new bike is courtesy a 110 section tire up front and a 140 section tire at the rear.

It is expected that the bike would have an on road price of close INR 4 lakhs.

The new Kawasaki Ninja 300R is very well poised to open gates to a new segment in Indian bike market and should appeal to those who have always been wishing a wee bit more from entry level sportsbikes.

We are really excited about the new bike making it to us. What about you???

Spotted: Royal Enfield Cafe Racer Caught Testing

After showcasing the Cafe Racer aka Continental GT at the last two Auto Expos in India, it appears that Royal Enfield is testing the bike for an official launch in India.

This Cafe Racer/Continental GT was spotted in Gokarna, Karnataka and the bike carries the trademark red color which has been so synonymous with it for the last 4 years of its Indian appearances. Cafe Racer is powered by a 535cc EFI single cylinder engine and it produces a power output of over 35bhp.

These pictures have also been confirmed by the official Twitter handle of Royal Enfield. We expect Royal Enfield to launch Cafe Racer in India sometime this year and this will be the most advanced Royal Enfield ever built. It would be interesting to know how would the company position it in India.

But, for all of you who have been asking us questions on Cafe Racer’s launch, these developments would have brought in a fresh new hope.
