    Secondly if we read the interview carefully it seems Bajaj wants to bring the new products in march itself (instead of next financial year) to help improve the volume growth which they need it now. They are having high hopes on the new product lineup to kick in the volume growth
    Ya may be... Me too wish Pulsar's came soon to be mine.
    What ever.....! He'll make wise decisions.
    Lets hope good.
    Anyway good news.

      you guyz dont read the complete thread...
      this has been speculated before..
      bringing 2 version with some differences in them...
      eg yamaha 150cc engines in r15,frazer,fz,all 150, but all different...r15 liquid cooled, others not...top speed different, gear boxes different

      same with bajaj and KTM...200cc but 1 air other oil cooled,gears sets diff,one carb and oe fi
      plz understand and no more of this speculating of 2 different versions plz

      A REQUEST TO ALL
      running a 220
      18000 Km i 11 months and still running

          I have no idea about the bike which you rode or is it just you are day dreaming off that you posted here, and remember none of us have seen you riding or testing the bike, niether you have the snaps to prove it and the big doubt which all have is that, you are neither a KTM or bajaj employee than why will they call you or give you the bike for ride which is still in testing phase, and risk their jobs, as we have big people here in XBHP and they all are not discussing about the same.

          So frankly, as per me requesting everyone here to stop hearing this story as he just wants to grab attention by fooling out everyone, so lets do other better things rather than wasting time in his dream stories.

          Guys guys, all that you guys said may be true,but lets not start attacking him from all sides, lets give him a chance to explain himself. Then we can decide.

          • Guys i dont think so that Bajaj will launch a bike above or around 200cc ,,because its near to impossible to compete with DUKE 200

            so why bajaj will launch a bike less powerful than what they already have

            Comment


            • We must never forget that it is bajaj who is making the Duke 200 engine.

              We must also not forget that Bajaj is already making a 150cc engine in 3 states of tune for Pulsar, Discover and Boxer.

              Why is the fact that Bajaj can tune the 200cc Duke mill in multiple ways so unfathomable? (they are already doing it BTW with the RE60 )
              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.

                Making it an affordable sportsbike to the Mango Man and selling in large numbers is the Bajaj strategy.
                Why do you think the 150,180 and 220 exists? They are catering to people of all budgets from 50k-1lac range with the "pulsar" tag.
                The Duke however will be above 1.2l
                People in this country still give you a weird expression everytime you say u spent 1.2+ for ur bike.
                Especially since the Nano comes at 1.8! I always get to hear it from the petrol pumpwaalas.

                  The frame that we are talking here is called Perimeter frame and one can see it in the likes of R1, CBR1000R, GSX-R1000. Yamaha had the same frame which they call as "Delta Box" frame

                    The above link actually talks about car frames.. this should be the correct wikipedia link: Motorcycle frame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

                    • having read and discussed almost everything about upcoming pulsars, i just wanna know -
                      • when will the top of the line pulsar be launched, be it a 220 or 250 CC ?
                      • what will be its price?
                      • most important, why will bajaj use an engine which has "KTM Racing" engraved on it, use in a pulsar. they can even use the same engine without KTM badging.

                        It might be present only on the test models, and might have bajaj on the production version.....

                          Guess it will be either Pulsar or DTS-i on the engine as Bajaj is trying to develop Pulsar as a brand.

                            KTM badging while testing, and Bajaj badge when in production..!

                            I don't think so.

                              • If Fiat engines can be sold under tata and maruti cars saying its a tata or maruti engine and not fiat, though originally its Fiat engine, then why cant KTM also be used in same way by bajaj
