    GT250R LE Special Edition is good and only attractive thing is dual front discs and design of vehicle body.
    Honda CBR 250R would be my choice if i go for your 2 lakhs segment.It has a better performance and top speed of 160kmph and moreover a beast from reputed company in Indian roads.Any other suggestions.

    The beast bike's 'Limited Edition" version is mechanically unchanged and can accelerate from 0-100 kmph in 8.33 second and can clock a top speed of 140 kmph.

    This limited edition GT250R would see a production run of only 50 units, and will have owner's signature and branded merchandise packaged with the bike, in a cost of near 3 lakhs.

    Meanwhile, my view is we should say this INDIAN super bike... because actually at world arena super bike should have speed in access of 250 kmph AT-LEAST... 😁.
