              The price I got when I called them in the morning was 12.5L On-Road, Pune. The bookings will start from 23rd and the deliveries would commence from Jan end or Feb first week.

              IMHO the price is competitive, the CB1000R goes for 13.6L, On-Road, Panvel.

                Does it look bad-ass or what???
                And kudos to your friend, he is the first one who speculation turned true in my entire tenure @ Xbhp. Is he named Rajiv? (just kidding)

                  This is what should be called naked aggression
                  Love Kawasaki for bringing the best curves and cuts we can imagine on a bike.
                  Hope i have the ₹₹ in coming years, this machine is gonna be on top of the list.

                  And the price of ₹11-12L is not bad either for such a machine.

                  Ride safe and have fun.

                      Is this bike sharing the chassis with z 1000 sx?
                      Now that one may cost another 1L?

                      Edit:

                      It seems they will be priced almost equally from this review

                        This has been one of my favourite bikes! I m glad it is being launched in India! However, I would have wanted a tad more power than the current FZ1 which I have to justify the move, nevertheless the black one looks almost 'Batman Ready'!

                              The Z series of Kawasaki street-fighters has a strong legacy of more than four decades. Z1000 is not just another naked street fighter by Kawasaki Motors, given its new age design and specifications. It is a four-cylinder high performance motorcycle in the street-fighter segment, exemplifying unparalleled power and impeccable naked design. The Z1000 is an evolution of the dynamic super-naked bike series by Kawasaki engineers, who were determined to take the overall riding impact to the next level. The new-engine and chassis settings are crafted seamlessly to deliver a stiffer, more direct ride feel, which will certainly appeal to experienced bike riders. There is a significant transformation in this model, both in terms of design as well as riding experience. With these features Z1000 is touted as being India’s most advanced super-naked bike currently available.

                              Ninja 1000 from the legendary Ninja stable, will offer bikers with the finest combination of comfort and control. The sportier handling features of the bike do not compromise on its comfort. The well balanced platform benefits from new integrated panniers, the flagship-level technology 3-mode KTRC (Kawasaki Traction Control) and customizable power modes. These innovative features add to the Ninja 1000’s unrivaled all-round performance. The bike also offers an upright seating position, large fuel tank, and adjustable windscreen among its features, as well as a transmission exclusively geared for street-riding.

                              The bikes at the launch -
