    Next await the TVS akula. That's gonna drop a bomb on these..
    TVS are a bit slow bringing in features n all to the market, any idea when the launch is of the BMW and akula?

            250 Duke gets MRF tyres,

            Rim size changed on KTM Duke 200.

            the work on the KTM Adventure 390 is going on...

              I was planning to buy this bike in June. But No abs is a deal breaker for me! I guess I have to wait for G310r.

                yes bro.. me too....

                He told for the performance of 250 ABS is not necessary.... That's not correct... Any bike greater than 15 PS must and should have as per me......

                  I had read somewhere that the new gen 390 had a second counter balancer, but no word about it during the launch

                      No idea bro. Even my engineer friend working at TVS hosur plant where the bike is being manufactured has no idea about the launch but he confirmed that it will be priced around 2.2 lacs.

                        Duke 250 - 173,300 that means on road it will be around 2L.
                        Seems fair to me. Only wished for an ABS on this

                            The most striking thing for me was there is no ZMA in this anymore!

                                They have Dominar and pulsar on chart. Kawi is above the 2.5L segment
