Why Can't Honda Sell India's $900 100cc Street Motorcycle In The USA

Nissan sold the base model versa for 8,999 up until this year.

As for the article, the won't seel a $1k bike here because it wil east into the scooter market, and why compete with the scooter market which are selling for between $3k -$5k? We have money here in india they don't, plus with our infrastructure, where other than a city or around the local community can you ride a super small bike? I feel like my klr650 is just barely powerful enough for regular use, let alone a 100cc monster.

Yeh the guy lives in a fantasy world unless the dmv's decide to implement a tier licensing system
