Here’s all that happened in the two-wheeler space in the last week summed up in five stories
There’s a lot that’s been happening in the two-wheeler space ever since the government eased its lockdown restrictions. We’ve witnessed a barrage of BS6 updates, new two-wheeler launches along with prospective bike launches. And this week isn’t any different. So here are the top five two-wheelers stories that made headlines this week.
Honda Cruiser:
Royal Enfield may finally have a worthy competitor in decades. The challenge comes from none other than Japanese bike maker Honda. It’s currently readying itself to launch what we think is a cruiser that will take on the Classic 350. Click here for more information.
Royal Enfield Meteor 350 Launch Postponed / RE price hikes:
All those who’ve been patiently awaiting the arrival of the Meteor 350 will have to wait a bit longer as the bike's launch has been postponed. It was originally supposed to be launched by mid-September 2020. Here’s the rescheduled launch timeline.
But that’s not the only news from Royal Enfield’s porch. It recently hiked prices for its entire Indian portfolio. Click on the links below to check out all the bikes and their new prices.
Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 & Continental GT 650
Peugeot P2X Concept going into production
Back in 2018, Peugeot unveiled a striking concept motorcycle called the P2X in two guises: a cafe racer and a roadster, based on the Mahindra Mojo. While the brand had no intentions of launching these bikes in their production guise earlier, it now seems to have changed its mind. Head here for more information.
Yamaha MT-25 Launched:
While we sulk over the culling of the Yamaha YZF-R3 here in India, the Malaysians are celebrating the introduction of the potent MT-25 just a few thousand kilometres away. Could it make it to India too? Click here to find out.
Ducati Multistrada V4 Spied
We’ve seen glimpses of the upcoming Ducati Multistrada V4 in the recent past, but never such detailed images of the ADV. The recent spy shots pretty much showcase the bike in its near-production avatar. Head here to check it out.
