    Brilliant pricing by Bajaj-KTM! Expecting price to be increased by no more than 10% once the introductory price is passe.
    I sincerely hope the 43.5PS of affordable power doesn't go into unsafe hands.

    & finally, I now see why Probiking was rebranded to KTM. The new 300cc Kawasaki at KTM Stores shall find even few takers now, and the KTM brand shall now be the chief revenue stream (premium bikes) for Bajaj Auto.

    The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

      Well, Bajaj has just thrown the gauntlet to Honda & Yamaha and how? If i'm Honda, I would be very worried with the prospect of fully faired Pulsar coming in at even lesser compared to Duke 390. It's time for them to say "Hunto" , Not for nothing did Honda acknowledge few days ago that "Bajaj is their real competitor".

                  Casting made from mixture of aluminium+steel. I guess, they have used aluminium to reduce the weight of the wheels.

                          why do you require a week :P :P

                          sooner the better since I assume Xbhp had first access before any of the other journos

                            Hey Guys,

                            What is the current price of Duke 200? If I remember correctly, it was launched at Rs 1.18 but now it's higher. May be this can give an indication of how much increase in price can we expect for Duke 390.
