Bangalore: Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India Private Limited launched a new bike for the youngsters in Bangalore on Monday. The CBF Stunner was unveiled by N.K Rattan, divisional head, sales and marketing, and Yamane, adviser, sales and marketing, in the presence of dealers from Bangalore and Karnataka.

“Targeted at the youth, the Stunner’s sharp and sporty look will revolutionise the motorcycle market in the country,” said Mr. Rattan.

Coming under the 125cc segment, it is a first of its kind in this segment in India, with a sports bike look and feel. The motorcycle, officially launched in the country on August 9, is priced between Rs. 48,391 and Rs. 52,198 ex-showroom in Bangalore.

“With increased choices, today’s youth want something which has the ‘style and attitude’ quotient and the CBF Stunner inspired by the CBR 1000 from Europe aptly fits into the category with its design, high performance and style,” Mr. Yamane said.
