The Honda Unicorn, Honda's first motorcycle in India, will be a 150 cc motorcycle. The motorcycle will have a unique monoshock suspension - a monoshock suspension is unique only in India! - and is expected to produce slightly more power than the Bajaj Pulsar 150 ( 12 bhp) motorcycle while being more frugal in terms of fuel economy.
The Unicorn bike will probably take on other Indian motorcycles in quality, just the same way Honda did with the Activa and other scooters. Pricing of the Unicorn motorcycle will be the key.
According to newspaper reports, Honda Unicorn motorcycle will produce 13.2 bhp of power, and will have five gears. 0-60 in 5 seconds is the predicted acceleration figure for the bike.
The bike sports a tank that is similar to the one in the 'wanna fly' Honda bike ad. The tailpiece says MC-1 for Motorcycle 1. Honda Unicorn motorcycle will sport 17 inch wheels. My first impression after seeing the so-called Honda Unicorn motorcycle, is that it looks like a SPORTS BIKE. Black colour is excellent.
