BIKE----------0-60 TIMINGS------------0-100 TIMINGS

KTM200--------3.XX---------------------9.XX
Even if the 0.XX secs is 0.4 secs difference, does it justify Rs. 35,000/= extra..?? and that too when the FE far outweighs the 0.4 sec advantage. and mind it to extract that 0.4 sec advantage, you need to have sufficient skill.^^well bro, for that matter, even KTM's pick-up and top speed is untested. both KTM200 & P200's performance figures are as provided by BAL & as quoted by xbhp. none are tested till date by any third party.Originally posted by sayank10 View Postp200 0-60 timings are yet to be tested.ktm has power to weight ratio of 182bhp/ton compared to pulsar's 162bhp/ton.that explains its more initial pick-up.about the fe part ktm definitely loses.
for answer to your above question, i have a theory, which u missed in earlier pages.... read below...Originally posted by kantu View PostYes ! What bother s me is why did bajaj launch KTM along with KTM kinda bike ?
And more over KTM is a new brand not many people will trust.
There s a huge Pulsar fan base you can sell anything with a Pulsar tag on it ! Ex : P135
This will certainly hit KTM share of market and as well other bikes too
Like some one said ! glad to be part of this era
Originally posted by princesirohi View PostP200NS has more pick-up and top end than KTM200, it also has almost double the FE, and handling is also OK, price below 1 Lac .... who will purchase a KTM ????
either there is something wrong in above sentence or the whole process of launching a KTM ....co-developing it....manufacturing it at low cost....is simply to steal KTM technology, which KTM was not eager to share unless BAL does all this.Originally posted by Ivin View PostTalking about KTM, common guys, it has got inverted forks, aluminium swing-arm, bosch Fuel Injection system, Trellis frame, 150 section tyre etc which NS dont have , so it justifies its price.
to justify the price, you don't need these hi-fi things, all you need is performance gain which is "measurable"- and mind it- till date both the bikes are untested. those were just first impresions.
Well on topic, is this bike track reliable? ZigWheels say good handling, but does this makes it the best handler among Indian made bikes? (duke 200 apart, trellis should make it the best in handling.)best handling bike is still R15... i thinkand some performance fig.s as well as..Originally posted by MG View PostMore pics of the bike and a lot of other stuff will posted tomorrow
the above article says "brilliance of CBR250R's handling", whereas some experts say CBR handles like a boat...........Originally posted by chinmayakar View PostDont know if anybody has posted it earlier:
2012 Bajaj Pulsar 200NS: World Exclusive First Ride Page - 1| Zigwheels.com

Dont be so sure Dude. I am sure with the new Chasis, and new dynamics, it may prove otherwise. Lets wait for the actual thing to hit the roads before shooting off.Originally posted by vineshp View PostPulsar was bulky and less flickable than its competitors viz- FZ,Apache.
And the new Pulsar 200NS at 145Kgs, it will remain so.

this has got a carb n the duke has fiOriginally posted by Samarth 619 View PostRead somewhere that instead of the DOHC from the Duke, the Pulsar has SOHC. That could be the reason for lesser power compared to Duke.
Triple spark? I hope it doesn't have too many demerits. But its liquid cooled without fairing... so maybe... whatever!
One thing that has caught my attention is its name: Pulsar 200 Naked Sports. Does it mean that a faired version is in pipeline?

bulky in terms of weight. there must be only a handful of bikes sold in india which weigh below 140kgs.. pulsar 135 and r15 is the only one i can remember off-the-bat... anyone can chip in?Originally posted by sayank10 View Postwe don't see too many bulky bikes in india.infact bulky bikes are more seen in europe.duke 125 customers have many complaints about the electricals of the bike.about the sparkplugs innovative move .

and reliablity issues would have cropped up in the duke 125 batches, since the same ppl produce it
additional sparkplug can reduce emissions and increase efficiency

I dont agree with you about built quality. Honda is not anywhere near where they where 5 years ago.Originally posted by RascalAngel View Post3 Spark plugs and 4 valves.
what next?4 sparks??
Duke to Pulsar NS is what Galaxy SII is to Iphone 4S. one is mass market other is exclusive!
CBR comparison: its definitely no ripoff.it has its own exclusive design elements.
The build quality from these pics atleast looks top notch.Honda level.Definitely a step in right direction for bajaj.
The front looks hot.Yellow color is smoking.Though i dint like the tail much.doesn't go well with aggressive front part.
Kudos to Mr Rajiv Bajaj.He is the Steve Jobs of Indian Motorcycle Industry!
BTW does all liquid cooled bikes come with External Oil filter??
My 2 paise....
Mr.Rajiv knows what Indians want.
I completely agree with your mobile comparisons. Great.

most indian bikes are "bulky" anyway...[*]Bulky at 145Kgs for a Naked[*]Reliablity 'doubts' associated with a 'new' platform
On a serious note, will the performance/efficiency increase with every additional spark plug? Then why are mfg's round the world are not stuffing as many spark plugs they can??
I am disappointed that only one model and not the entire 2012 Pulsar lineup got unveiled today.
All said, I am very sure that the Pulsar was/is/and will be a VFM product that will seduce you with it's affordable power biking for masses!

I am definitely confident that this one is gonna be a lot lot better, as the bike is basically a KTM engine wearing pulsar clothes, check the engine specs, everything is ditto duke, Bajaj has even chosen the underbelly exhaust of the Duke200. The only diff things are the extra spark plugs and SOHC. This bike is gonna set the charts on fire for sureOriginally posted by chinmayakar View PostYup. Lets hope it is as good as the writer puts out to be. Anyways, as with any new release, will wait for atleast 6-8 months after the bike hits the road. Until then my Joeled 220 is in service.
My 220 Dtsi, was the 2nd bike from Pune when it was launched, and I must say it has been comparatively less niggle free as against earlier Bajaj models.
Hope it is even better this time.
.
I am interested in knowing how many people who has initially opted for the Duke 200 will go in for this one.
