    Have a feeling people expecting 150 top speed going to be disappointed. Reminds me of the imaginary 22bhp R15. I for one will be surprise if it exceeds 135 true speed. Btw, changing sprockets for top speed will adversely effect acceleration. Besides smaller rear sprockets may not allow engine to rev at 11500rpm in 6th gear. Aerodynamic will come into play.

    If top speed is what matters, you're bucking the wrong bike.

            Haedlight comes on only when you thumb the starter.

            No. Expect it to be hovering between 135-140mark.

            People looking for top speeds - This is not the bike for you guys. The bike is more about the accleration and how it rides and feels throughout the rev band. For higher top speed CBR250 is the bike!

                  FE as quoted by sales rep at KTM showroom is 25-30. He said expect max 30 only.

                  It often takes a humiliating overtake to understand that an early jump off the red light won't help them lead the pact. All I want to say is - Go after green.

                      Test bike will be available at Bund Guarden PB store not before 1st Feb. The guy told me that they are waiting for RTO clearance. The on road price in Pune will be 1.3 lac. I was utterly disappointed with the exhaust note. Also the guy said new Pulsar will be 200cc not 220cc, asked him twice but he was firm about 200cc and regarding mileage of Duke he said 30-35kmpl...so expect in the range of ~25kmph.

                        That will do for me. As far as increasing top speed is concerned, Joel is there for us

                          Hmm.. R15 is a better long term bargain then..
                          34kmpl after horrifying abuse!
                          The same on a Duke will render a 20kmpl..
                          Vis-a-vis the cbr250 and duke200, the Ninja is still worth every penny spent..

                            Well the low FE with just a 10litre tank is going to make the tourer's think twice before buying this bike.
                            I would rather be riding my bike thinking of God, than sitting in the temple thinking of my bike.

                              Fuel Efficiency hardly matters even if it gives 20-25 Kmpl if you see it's high acceleration Figures

                                mileage in kmph?
