Take one glance at Honda’s VFR1200F or the new Fireblade and you know that these artistic creations epitomize the bike maker’s ‘The Power Of Dreams’ tagline. These machines are the kind of stuff that petrolheads’ dreams are made of. However, unlike its parent, Honda India seems to be following a different philosophy – which reads something like ‘The Power of Creating Nightmares’! Ever since they went independent in India, their product portfolio and its roadmap has been a nightmare for the competition around. Take the example of the Activa which came in when the scooter market was dying, or the Unicorn which came in when all of us were expecting a commuter from Honda, or the Shine, the Stunner, the Dio – all these machines either sidelined the market leaders to claim the lion’s share or created a totally new market segment to excel in. So when we heard the news of a 100cc ‘fun’ bike from Honda, we weren’t quite sure of what to expect.

good review!!I won a twister and its a very good bike for city and speeds under 70km/hr. i am getting great fuel efficiency of 72km/liter.among the cons of this bike is engine feels bit stressed after riding for 20+km.the gear range seems to reduce a bit.
