Lets keep this thread for what it is intended for.

that seems right .. no comparisons from now on from my side just because different people will have different needs and different tastes .. one shoud buy whatever reflects their character more and what their heart says ..

You are most welcome to make comparisons, but please post that in the appropriate section.

Congrats bro. I'm going to get mine today. Hope to catch up with you sometime in near future. You said the on road price is Rs 95,700. Can you please specify in more details like [ex-showroom, on-road, warranty cover, accessories] price etc.
It was said by Zigwheels that the on road price in Delhi will be Rs94,300. But, I inquired and found other dealers charging Rs 95,600 or Rs 95,700. Why this price deviation? I'm asking this because, my dealer asked me to pay Rs 96,900. I'm not sure about why this hike [Will visit the showroom today and inquire]. I'm going to buy this evening. Should I negotiate on price terms. If you compare it to Zigwheels price, the deviation comes out to be Rs 2,600 which is a lot.

Well FYI my college is in your college..I am in KIET

Secondly about price, the bill i got is for Rs.94768

Rs.528 was for helmet which was deducted and rest i will confirm and let you know soon.

Bagga Link declined my request of negotiation.

From which showroom are you thinking of buying?

Yes, this point looks correct. Yesterday i saw a Duke riding beside be stopped immediately, it looks like if you don't keep reeving in 1st-2nd gear engine will stop. If people are not used to ride in a High revs they will find riding Duke difficult. But people who have come up riding RX100 and love to Rev hard will feel at home with duke.

Is there a new thread for the faired pulsar 200NS/FS? That bike will be having good top end whack to it but giving out same power, and would weigh a bit more( I would say minimum 5-8 kgs more, or maybe even more?) So would people still go for it? Or is it only aimed at the fairing hungry crowd?

its going to be pulsar 200ss ( super sports ) with full fairing and front biased riding position and lower handlebars .. the engine specs remain same but the gearing will be longer to accomodate more top speed .. it will be more fuel efficient on highways .. acceleration will take a hit because of added weight and longer gearing

Wrong thread again:

The above "prediction" deserves to be the in "Speculation Thread"

[Now please don't quote any "Blog's link" as source for the prediction]

guys the main reason for me buying duke is my dad .. i had booked ns and was happy with it ..my dad has owned rx100 and rd350 in past so even he a bit of an enthusiast..
i once took my dad to ktm showroom . he too went for a test ride and he directly told me that this is the bike to own and ride ..go have it and dont ask for anything else .. he told me that this bike is going to keep me entertained for next three years minimum..
he liked the character of the bike and didint want to buy me anything else ..my dad actually has more biking experience than me .. he explained me about the mad character of duke and the impression that it leaves on everyone around ... hence , duke it is for me .

Post it on DUKE THREAD..

Share your experiences there.. might be someone there also have same feelings.. It will GROW!!

Thanks for the quick info boss. So, including Helmet it costs 95295.
Approx~Rs95,300. But, I guess my dealer is offering me 4 years of Warranty for Rs1,500 more I guess as they said. Will confirm by night about my price details. I'm buying from Fair Deal Bajaj, Patparganj road.

**surojit** · 07-03-2012, 02:55 PM

I was happy when I got the bike, but I was even more happy when I used it for what I brought it.

time for a Pic...*

**JakeRockwell** · 07-03-2012, 03:01 PM

Front Suspension!

Its almost 500kms on the speedo...
does anyone have a feeling that the front suspension is too rigid?
or is it just me?

**chintan99** · 07-03-2012, 03:18 PM
