    Affirmative!!
    Off course, but unless and until the bikes are made in India 🇮🇳 I don't see how they will be less expensive. Because the GOI is not going to reduce the import and luxury taxes any time soon.

            Let's wait for the official launch, none of the sites have any confirmed news, only speculation. If 250 is launched with ABS then I might consider it instead of 390 as it will be more traffic friendly and enough power for weekend runs.

              A parallel twin from KTM with their aggressive pricing would be irresistible. But with the new launch of 390's i don't think KTM will introduce the bigger displacement bikes anytime soon, just the adventure variant is the closest possibility.

              With the Kawasaki updating their N 650/ Z 650 i think their success and failure can be an influencing factor for KTM but with localized production it will anyway undercut the CKD units by huge margins.

              Good times ahead...Yay !

                  Awesome Man but this one seems like a test mule.

                  For those in NCR, If you are looking for old Duke , there is a discount of 10000 available on outgoing models at suman Bajaj noida.

                  &

                  If you are interested in Z250 , there is 50 K flat discount.

                      The 2017 KTM Duke 250 and KTM RC250 might not make its way to India says a recent report. Both the bikes are manufactured in India and exported.




                      I don't think so it will launch, what are your sources ?!

                            The frame color is same as 390.
                            250 written on the rear fender under the seat. Black wheels with new bajaj type stickers on it.
                            Same old console. MRF Revs C1 tyres, no abs. Side slung exhaust.

                                Not sure if that's possible or not because several articles say that 250 is imported outside with ABS as standard.
