Bajaj will launch two 125+cc motorcycles by fiscal end
A Bajaj official has said the company will introduce two motorcycles in India which will have engine capacities of over 125cc by the end of this fiscal. Apart from this addition, Bajaj is also looking at revamping one product in its existing portfolio.
Sources say this new motorcycle is codenamed Sprint with engine capacity of around 135cc. The report also says Bajaj will revamp the Pulsar and Discover line-up this year. I'm not sure what they would change, but the DTSi 2.0 series of engines could be installed on the bikes.
Another report in the media says Bajaj is planning new variants and models in the 100 cc category once Discover sales touch 80,000. Last month, Bajaj was able to sell 65,000 and the 80,000 mark is spitting distance away taking into account the purchasing mood of people in the festive season that has begun to gather steam.

Honda Icon 110cc scooter launched in Malaysia
Boon Siew Honda Sdn Bhd has launched the new Honda icon in Malaysia, which is what Honda calls an "A.T. Motorcycle", but of course the rest of us refer to it as a scooter. This new model joins Honda's other Malaysian scooter offering, the Honda Click.
The transmission system is Honda's V-Matic belt CVT with a gear ratio of between 2.68 to 0.85. It's engine is a 110cc 4-stroke air cooled unit (the Honda Click is liquid cooled).
Honda hopes the new model will help boost its scooter market share from the current 1% to 2% level up to 46%, which is a huge difference! The Icon is 100% assembled in Malaysia and will sell for RM4,688 OTR, which is cheaper than the Honda Click. It comes in five colours - pink, blue, red, white and black.
