      This will definitely differentiate the bike Of course, Duke is killer in the 'LOOKS' department - any color would match that shape, unless......
      Anyone remembers LML Freedom in Bright Orange, Light Green, Sky Blue & other such forsaken colors.

          31 pages! Not really in a mood to go through all the pages to cross check.

          Here's a review from Sachin Rao, Visordown - First ride: 2013 KTM Duke 390 - Road Tests: First Rides - Visordown

            KTM India's facebook page has an updated cover photo and a teaser with a highlighted 25th (June I'm assuming :P)

            Enough with the theatrics and launch it already. They are almost reaching Apple like levels here, what nonsense.

              every month they post the month's calendar with 25th highlighted. So dont get your hopes up yet. Maybe it is their salary day lol
              Regardless, Life shall go on.

                  Increasing the power & performance of a stock engine by installing aftermarket upgrades
                  Please be more specific in your question, so that learned Xbhpians can help you in a better way!!

                  A bit OT. Maybe mods can help.

                      Seriously, orange alloys shouldn't be the only choice. Bajaj, please do give black alloys as an option at no extra cost.

                        +1 to that. I had taken a test drive and gone to book the pulsar 220Fi with booking amount in hand. They made me fill a form at probiking saying they'll revert in 3 months and never contacted me again. sub dealers were charging 13000 rs as 'on' money.

                            That was a worst experience years ago...following which the dealership at vashi was shutting down. I've already booked at lower parel dealership as I had a contact there. He has assured me quick delivery as soon as the launch is done

                              It seems the launch is scheduled for Jun 25th. Lets hope now the date will not move.

                                Though their source is the same Fb page pic we all saw :P
