I'd pass.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I dont think any there's a single company that understands a consumer needs. Its generally the one best outta other. My personal take is Hero Honda has always tried to push its technology on consumers and managed to convice and win over consumers. Bajaj I think tends to follow HH on its commercial success and replicating it. But I dont it pushes itself in bikes compared to HH. Rest are drifter companies they try to follow but dont try push themselves more.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;At the end it depends on what consumers want, that something even greatest MBA want to be able to tell. Even with linear regression.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/167798941970247934/3220378051227671441/comments/default/8071606904361238121'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/167798941970247934/3220378051227671441/comments/default/8071606904361238121'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.2wheelsindia.com/2007/12/what-desi-bikers-want-need.html?showComment=1196781000000#c8071606904361238121' title=''/><author><name>Johnny Gaddar</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.2wheelsindia.com/2007/12/what-desi-bikers-want-need.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167798941970247934.post-3220378051227671441' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/167798941970247934/posts/default/3220378051227671441' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1038048272'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167798941970247934.post-698890010327558264</id><published>2007-12-04T19:38:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2007-12-04T19:38:00.000+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Make that a &lt;b&gt;"Need"&lt;/b&gt; Sajal.. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Pulsar O...</title><content type='html'>Make that a &lt;B&gt;"Need"&lt;/B&gt; Sajal.. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Pulsar Owners Need an accurate Fuel Guage..&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;By the way, I have found the solution to that erratic fuel guage..
