The Indian power bike segment is hotting up. Suzuki Motorcycle India (SMIPL), a 100% subsidiary of Japan’s Suzuki Motor Corporation, is all set to introduce premium-powered bikes between 125-175cc in the country. The bikes will be exhibited in the upcoming Auto Expo 2008.
“India is a major market for our parent company. We had introduced bikes in the mass market category (100-125cc) under the brand name Heat and Zeus. We are now ready to introduce premium-powered bikes in the country,” Suzuki Motorcycle India vice-president (sales and marketing) Atul Gupta told ET. The company will launch the bikes in April.

Mr Osamu Suzuki seems like a middle tier / new world Savant.
His scorn seems distinctly self-doubt rhetoric. The 50% key is what Suzuki takes out of India for each and every car.
The competition that he faces from TATA in India is healthy business rivalry, not
kamakazi politics. He shouldnt forget that Japan faced the same disdain but a few decades ago when humbly entering the US market.
The "J" factor but a few decades ago could very easily be misconstrued as "Junk" when the first few low segment
cars were introduced in the US. In time , with refinement Suzuki too blossomed. Tatas are way ahead of that game
and are as serious as your intent for quality. Thrash talking can be a two way street or DO ITTA (Move out of the way).
