    re: KTM Duke 390 Review & first impression: xBhp Exclusive

    Any idea about the sound of the bike?? Any one?? Does it replicates its younger sibling D200 or can we expect difference in the two??

    PS: I know the bike has not been launched yet in India and I have not yet got the chance to view D390's videos on youtube...

    And I guess there was a post on previous pages about the exclusivity being at stake if priced low. Let me tell you this- the D200 that was launched at a killer price failed to set the sales charts on fire. In a city like Bombay I dont see too many on road even now! It's like an affordable exotic.......the only time I see many together is at the PBK service centers or at biking events

    [QUOTE=Adoksh;959782]It mentions the time not the date. Or does it?

    It does mention the date : "KTM 390 Duke, unleashed on 25th June!"

    Cant really call the 250's errors a disaster.

    Called up KTM Indiranagar, she said the booking will be accepted from June 26th, and even the display bike will arrive there on 25th. About the moolah we need to shell out, she said it would be around 2.5-2.7L OTR for Bangalore. Booking amount is 30k and estimated waiting time is 30-90 days but she added those booking early will get it much sooner.

    KTM, at least give us the price!
    And if you read this and still haven't decided about the price in India then have in mind the most popular and best selling bikes are those with good price! Seriously!
