+1.. I was scared to write this all this while. Best case... what if the Duke 200 is a Pulsar 200 in different clothes? With the Pulsar with an ARAI FE of 5xkmpl (Current 220 is 56) and the KTM's ARAI FE be 4x.. the difference due to states of tune. This will help bringing the costs of both bikes down.Advice is a form of nostalgia.
Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

Why two bikes with same engine capacity?...features wise both will be different (include engine)...one will be on impressive high cost (KTM) and other one will be on low price...Originally posted by vrugonnab View Post^^^ that my friend is unlikely, Bikeindia article clearly mentioned that Duke 200 is going to be DOHC 200cc engine, while Pulsar is going to be SOHC 200cc engine. If you are just talking about the looks, may be likely as we haven't seen any test mule of P200
Also, as mentioned by BikeIndia P200 will have a liquid cool engine and 4 value...now what will be a future of P220?Last edited by veryhiphop; 11-16-2011, 03:27 PM.Comment

Again Cannibalization between Bajaj's own model will come into play..

Further; from news in BikeIndia...only P200 is going to launch. It means other versions will remain the same...no upgrade to them...Comment

perhaps the P200 will be priced at a premium (not very high though). Just like what yamaha did with FZ-16 & R15.Originally posted by veryhiphop View Post
Well i remember that Mr. Rajiv Bajaj had made a claim to introduce a tech which does not exist anywhere in the world. Is an SOHC, 4-valve LC & twin spark engine the "unique tech" he was talking about??? No offence to anyone but the tech doesnt have the "ooooooo" factor IMO.Last edited by madhav krishna; 11-16-2011, 07:52 PM.NOT BEEN THERE NOT DONE THATComment

Bajaj will be happy as long as customer ends up buying Pulsar/Duke.Originally posted by Satyamzma View PostAgain Cannibalization between Bajaj's own model will come into play..
It might also mean they will be launched after some more time!Originally posted by veryhiphop View Post
We don't have much detail available about Pulsar apart from SOHC, 4-valve 200 cc engine. That isn't much to come to a conclusion, IMOOriginally posted by madhav krishna View Post

I wasnt concluding anything. Was just giving a hint that perhaps (maybe) this is not the pulsar rajiv was claiming of.Originally posted by vrugonnab View PostWe don't have much detail available about Pulsar apart from SOHC, 4-valve 200 cc engine.

well that can also b true,.,.,.but there may b a possibility that they just launch the KTM 200 with the name PULSAR,.,.,.Originally posted by antz.bin View Post
(we havent seen any piks, concrete news or antyhing about the pulsar which is due to launch within a month and both KTM and PULSAR are supposed to share a lot in common,.,.,.)
what if only one bike is launched PULSAR 200 which is just the detuned version of the KTM 200 sold elsewhere_____________________________________________

KTM 200 and Pulsar will be completely different bike.Originally posted by hotshot.vipin View Post
As per a senior member here who saw the new Pulsar recently, the new Pulsar is worth waiting for.If anyone is looking for a big bike feeling at a lower price, the new pulsar will quench their thirst..

Something like the Volkswagen Vento and the Skoda Rapid? Another example is the Nissan Micra and the Renault Pulse?

if both pulsar and mini duke share the same engine (may be similar frame even) ,,,theres no need to test them seperately.. may be thats the reason nobody spotted new pulsar being tested in open. yet.everybody dies, but not everyone LIVES...
