RE super meteor 650 retails around 5 lakhs (on road). It sells around 1000 pieces per month. I don’t know how many other brands can convince these many people to spend such a huge sum (a sum at which you can get a decent car out and running on road) for a bike.Triumphs and harleys at around 8-10 lakh range barely sell 100 bikes per month. I strongly believe 650cc will take off in coming decade. In India next set of growth may come from migration of 350cc customers to 650cc or 450cc.Classic 650 which is right now in rumor stage will be a good inflection point for the change.
Also Latin american market and east asian market may be a good growth engine as they can give some respectable numbers.
Dominance in European and north American market helps in building a premiumness to the brand rather than bringing raw sales numbers.
One thing which baffles me why brand is not trying to enter China given it has huge appetite for premium products.
