The bike looks super cool...... we still have 1 year to save money...... provided they launch the 15ps model with 12nm torque...... it'll be fun to drive in the cities......
A little OT: one year down the line, a kid asking for his/her first bike from his parents(Indian Scenario)
Kid: Dad, I want a bike
Dad: which one
Kid: R15
Mom: no way, only bad boys ride them & I heard its very fast
Kid: okay, so any 150cc will do
Mom: no 150cc, give him something 100cc or maybe 125cc
Dad(looking sceptically towards Kid): so will you be happy with 125cc?
Kid: yes Dad, & let's settle for Duke
Dad: okay, deal & what's the price
Kid: 150k
Dad(shouting at the top of his voice): no deal & to H@!! with cc, anything within 60k & not a single penny more than that
the rest was all chaos & it resulted in higher sales figure for Bajaj

More Updates
The second largest two-wheeler manufacturer of India, Bajaj Auto, will introduce its new bike Duke 125cc in India by mid-2011. "There are plans to launch Duke 125, which was showcased at Cologne (Germany) this year. The bike will be first launched in Europe and then it will be brought to India," said S. Ravikumar, the company's vice-president for business development. "This will happen sometime next year... in the first quarter of the next fiscal," said Amit Nandi, vice-president, pro-biking segment, Bajaj Auto.
Bajaj and Austrian auto maker KTM will introduce Duke 125cc in Europe in March 2011. The 125cc sports bike has been jointly developed by both the companies. Bajaj and KTM shook hands in 2007 when the former picked up 14.5 percent stake in KTM to access engine technology. KTM sells sports and off-road bikes in a range of engine capacities, from sub-100cc to almost 1,000cc.
Apart from the Duke 125, Bajaj also plans to launch new Pulsar 150cc in India by late 2011.

Another Update
There is a press release by Bajaj Auto out today which talks about them increasing their stake in KTM (38.09% now)...
But an extract is interesting... It says "The first of the co-developed products KTM Duke 125 will hit European markets in 2011. Launch of a KTM product suitable for India, from this joint development is planned for H2 of 2011"
Cheers...I like 'em Naked
Blah Blah Blah!

Earlier Bajaj and KTM had agreed on joint development of-125cc and 250cc water-cooled engines. The first co-developed product, the KTM Duke 125 is expected to hit the European markets in 2011.
'Launch of a KTM product suitable for India, from this joint development is planned for second half (H2) of 2011,' the statement said.
The bike is expected to come into India by mid-2011.
