    KTM BundGarden, Pune have removed the RC8 from
    Display.

    Hopefully, they are making space for the DUKE 390 •_•
    Can't wait anymore

      (RE: to Zak) thanks buddy, appreciate your comment. will probably lean towards D390. Wondering if Ninja with ABS might make an entry around Diwali, then once again i will be confused, hehe

        with street style sitting posture, offroad type suspension, and sports tires, so it's kind of an all rounder you can say.

        offroad type suspension ? with 150mm travel ?

          Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

            The WP engineered suspension is same diameter 43mm as that of RC8r superbike. It is no way off road. Actually it's super stiff and will have different shims..I.e. a slightly softer yet firm setup for our amazing roads!

                I had spoken to Bachoo motors and PRS from mumbai. They both said please wait till the bike is launched, parts will follow!

                    No they won't stock power parts. Prs guy clearly told me he is the official distributor for akrapovic in india but the Akra exhaust for the duke is sold only through ktm power partsboth India and abroad. He told me to all any friend of mine to get it through ktm abroad. Accessories sold through him won't be official ktm power parts.

                      I hope It sees success in India. Although many typical Indians won't prefer the duke because of it being less practical. However, if you love it then you gotta have it.

                        Indians might find the supermoto styling a bit off Road type but this bike is sufficiently bonkers. I didn't find a single reviewer who had anything particularly bad to say about it. Indian bikers have matured over the years with the market. And I don't see any bike as practical as this in the market at all! Fuel efficiency like the lower capacity cbr... cheaper than international pricing(quite the opposite and many heartfelt Thanks to rajiv bajaj for accomplishing a seemingly impossible feat like that)... cheap spares.. the best set of international tyres that are great in the rains as well and abs... all cheaper than the 300 ninja which doesn't have stuck awesome tyres or abs either.... for those who don't like Dukes or don't like their sound... Plz ride one for an entire day first. .. it will change your perspective completely. .. easiest Bike to live with!

                          Nepal prices out

                          Guys,

                          D390 is goineg to be priced Rs. 800000
                          D200 is priced at Rs. 350000

                          so D390 is priced at around 230% more than D200

                          going by the same calculation: D390 will cost Rs. 310000 in India considering D200's price as Rs. 135000
                          i agree that D390 will not be priced that hight but you never know, what if KTM wants to position this as a premium product?

                          source: http://www.thehimalayantimes.com/ful...&NewsID=375449

                          how many of us are ready to buy this at 310000?

                                310000 was projected for Incredible India only right?
