If it's going to carry the R name, it better not betray that in the riding. Even an affordable sport bike is only worth it if it corners satisfyingly. We don't know yet what's under the hood of the R2, but if it becomes the first bike a young rider admires, that's meaningful in its own right. Still, I'll judge once the actual riding substance comes out.

Full-faired but with an accessible displacement, this sounds like a bike that could handle daily use too.

If they're going for an accessible price point, it sounds like it'll sit a bit above the R15.

I'm curious about full-fairing sport demand in the Indian market, and how it'll compete against things like KTM.

India's a class with fierce price competition against the KTM RC line, so strategy is going to matter a lot here.

A new face joining the R series is just plain exciting news.

Being an R2, I wonder if it'll sit in a position filling the gap between the existing R15 and R3.

In terms of displacement, it sounds like a strategy to fill the gap between the R15 and R3—makes sense from a market standpoint too.
