Never a dull week in the world of motorcycles, and this one was no different. It was an eventful affair, with new launches, exciting sightings of upcoming bikes and some long overdue government policies. Here’s everything you may have missed over the last seven days:

Kawasaki updated the Versys 650 to BS6 emission norms and it has been accompanied by a very modest Rs 10,000 price hike. Full details are available here.
Delhi, Telangana Introduce EV Policies
Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, always the voice of reason and wisdom, has introduced a new and rather progressive EV policy in the state, as he hopes to register five lakh new EVs in the next five years. The policy will not only make electric two-wheelers more affordable by Rs 30,000 but will also aim to set up 200 charging stations in the next year. Telangana has also introduced a new EV policy of its own, waiving road tax and registration charges on electric vehicles. You can read all about both policies here.
Honda 200cc Bike Incoming
If you’re surprised to see the Honda CB Hornet 160R not make the transition to BS6 emission norms just yet, we have good news for you. No, Honda hasn’t forgotten about its popular little Hornet. Instead, we believe that the brand is going to reintroduce the model in a bigger, more powerful 200cc avatar. More details are available here.
