Honda VTR 250 Price and Features in India

Honda VTR 250 Price and Features in India 

There are news going around the internet these days on Honda planning to launch their VTR250 but one should not be surprised if Honda launches a fresh model for the Indian market having the technology borrowed from any of their exisiting 250cc bike from the international market.
With its V-twin engine, lack of a fairing and tubular steel trellis frame, its lines hark back to a certain Italian model that can lay claim to founding the modern naked streetfighter niche (the Ducati Monster), and the while the VTR’s quarter-litre performance might not be in the same ball park, that’s no bad thing for the bulk of its intended audience – the entry-level market.
While it shares little with its litre-class namesake, the VTR1000F Firestorm, other than a V-twin engine format, the VTR250 is a nimble, agile performer, even if its horsepower output isn’t going to see its rear Bridgestone Exedra placed under too much pressure.
