    So, let's put down a quick list of components that can be shared by P200NS & Duke 200

    1. Discs both front & rear
    2. Liquid cooling parts
    3. Spark plugs
    4. Switch gear on handlebars
    5. Basic engine block (as cylinder head is different)

    anything else guys, I know there is a lot missing from my short list.

    exactly sir... but, to be fair to every bike fan, lets admit that at least fz, apache, r15, and p135 (a handful, as i said) are good handling bikes

    Yet the big story is the fuel efficiency which Bajaj claims will be around 58kmpl overall when the bike is ridden at speeds under 60kmph. Raise the speeds by a significant bit and you will still get figures above 50kmpl though anything above a 100kmph drops it to under 30kmpl. Yet that's good efficiency..............

Because all of sunday, I was actually thinking what it is that Bajaj will implement in the new Pulsar that will raise the FE to acceptable levels above what the Duke seems to be managing. I ruled out Variable valve timing / direct injection / turbocharging and supercharging because all of those would be expensive to implement and would in effect make the Pulsar more expensive than the Duke. Since those were the only mainstream CAR technologies yet to be implemented on production motorcycles, I was actually out of ideas. What Bajaj did was take one of the 'cheapest to manufacture' components in an engine head and avoided all that RnD costs and equipment costs. Anyways, why should it matter to the rider if there is a carb or an ECU at work underneath as long as it is a hoot to ride and acceptably green for the govt.?

    P.S.: This year there will be a helluva fight for the 'Bike of the Year' award between the siblings . Will they give it to the super high tech one or the ingeniously designed one?
    P200NS will be a deserving winner of "Bike of the year 2012" contest, just for the fact that it brought up a ground breaking technology. Duke 200 is outstanding bike, no doubt on that, but think of it, did they bring up anything new with Duke 200, everything that's used on Duke 200 is already pretty common in bikes, albeit in higher cc bikes.

    As you pointed out, Bajaj took a cheap to manufacture tech and squeezed maximum out of it. This goes on to back the fact "Thinking simple is complex". How come competition never thought of this when going for FI, which is a good tech, but comes at a huge cost.

    By the way, did you guys notice that P200NS got Bajaj symbol in just two places, they are tiny spots just above headlight and one more on speedo console, engine area now proudly displays triple spark!! I think soon they will remove Bajaj symbol from pulsar line-up.

    So ,,

    If this Bike is named as NS (naked Sports),,,, That means we have a Faired One coming in the Lineup, with FI and Full fairing and yes Projectors?????

    If yes that would be a Hot Pick too,,,,,

    And yes thats a Good Right up about the 3sparkplug thingy,,,,,explains a lot,,,,

    Holy Schmoly

    This bikes looks oh so F-ing gud!!

    I am regretting my decision of buying the r15 v2 alrdy. Need a buyer to take it off my hands now.

    The rear end looks very much like the gt650 n however the front end is oh-so-gud-lukin. If at all i end up getting this babe the tyres would be the first thing to go out, I mean come on guys -Eurogrip - is that the best bajaj can do.

    Nonetheless its a great moment in the history of the indian biking, proud of bajaj. Take that you Japs!!

    I think existing range 135-220 will sell along side this new model, however, this new model 200 NS may be priced at a premium around 90K-98K on road.

    They may try to sell it as a better technology.

    Atlast "Humaraa Bajaj" set to take on the world by storm....now bring on a Faired one as well,and kill R15/ZMR...
    Saree Guard and Tyre hugger will be there once the bikes roll out.
    You cannot kill R15 by simply bringing a Faired 200 NS.R15 is still a gem when comes to handling and performance.

    +100
    nowadays projectors r a must
    even RE has put 1 in the tb500
    and bajaj started the projector trend in india
    maybe they will come with a faired version that will hav projectors
