KTM - Bajaj confirmed that they will be launching two more faired bikes in 2014, based on the RC series.
Both the bikes will be launched in 2014 and will be under 500cc. The expected bikes are faired versions of the Duke 200 and the Duke 390. Recently a Cup Series bike was launched by KTM specifically for racing, the production version of which is expected next year.
Currently, KTM does not have any faired bike, and only has the KTM Duke 200, with the KTM 390 being launched recently. But both these bikes are nakeds and with the new launches next year, KTM will be able to take on its faired competitors. With bikes as competitively prices as the Duke 390, Honda, Yamaha and Kawasaki will have something to worry about.
8000 units of the Duke 200 have been sold, with around 25000 units being exported.
