Regional launch events took place in Ludhiana, Nashik, Noida, Pune, Chennai, Jodhpur, Mysore, Dhanbad, Muzaffarpur, Lucknow, and Jaipur, with Honda describing them as highly successful. The firm also opened new BigWing premium outlets in Gurugram, Bengaluru, and Chennai to strengthen its presence in the high-end motorcycle segment.

The cities covered included Bhiwadi, Prayagraj, Nayagarh, Budaun, Akola, Warangal, Nandurbar, Bangalore, Trichy, Gandhinagar, Jodhpur, and Bhatinda. The manufacturer also celebrated six years of its Safety Driving Education Centre in Ranchi, which trains people in responsible road behaviour and decision-making skills for safer journeys.
