Honda has confirmed it will launch its CBR650F in India by 2015. They plan to assemble the entire motorcycle locally thus, lowering costs. An added incentive is that Honda will provide an in-line four mill. The Hyosung GT650R is a direct competitor, as they both have two cylinders, however, the South Korean manufacturer offers its motorcycle at a much affordable price.
