    Tussi great ho! You have contacts everywhere, sir. Honestly, the bike looks beautiful in person as opposed to in pictures. Especially in the night with its LED tail lamps.

    +1.
    If its indeed going to be killer, then it should be priced on similar lines to the GT650R as thats the only competitor it has in the segment at present and its getting good number of bookings. Less than 5.5 OTR would be rocking for Delhi guys where taxes are less.

    and if killer literally means "killer pricing"...
    then i'd expect a price-tag lower than the GT650R
    !
    - wish it happens.
    The N250R is such a good and smooth bike and i expect the same from 650R, looks good, good dash, should be smooth and after all its a Kawasaki - brand image matters

    but with the 650R... they're not the only guys out there.
    so they're going to have to price this well.

    bring it on!
    Yup,the times have changed and other manufactures are also producing 250cc bikes at half the Ninja250 price.

    Yup,if you consider their own Ninja250 costing 3.12Lacs and their Ninja650 to cost 5Lacs

    Bajaj will prolly drop the N250R pricing in the coming months.

    seems very likely.

    the ER-6f and the N250R are two comepletely different classes of motorcycles in the UK.


    the UK has a "25kW or 33 bhp motorcycle law" for learner motorcyclists.

    so Kawasaki was well aware that both the Ninjas wouldn't eat into each other.


    but that's not the case in India tho... with the "one license ride all" rule.


    so Bajaj will have to price this right.

    After the killer pricing post here, I expect the blogging world to be buzzing with the same "expect killer pricing, from our insider info".
