    i for one don't think that these will land at our shores. The styling is too radical for a mere 125cc mill and would be very costly considering the kind of equipment it offers. a single cylinder 250cc with around 25bhp and 23nm with similar styling is the need of the hour....

        You never know with Bajaj, Ninja is here, right? Again, these won't be for masses, only for some handful like us

                  Wild Design..!!

                  A slightly bigger bore engine (150-200 cc) along with a pillion seat, would be perfect for India.

                  Anybody got the specs of this bike..??

                    Wish the price is sub-1 peti

                          Even if these make it to India, im sure it will be another version,, dont think they can sell it with brembo disks , reversed shock and those exhaust and all for less than 1 lakh for a 125cc bike.. it will be a bajaj tweeked one with pillion seat, another headlight,normal front fork, another redesign back with tail lights, mudflaps and Saree guard. also they must reduce the seat height if they wants to sell it well in India.

                          no matter 250 or 125cc,, its perfect for indian Roads if they make it.

                            I just need a pillion seat on it.. rest everything is perfect.

                            USD forks, Trellis frame, liquid cooled.. everything's perfect.

                            At 3 lakhs in-road the Ninja 250R is still currently out of my reach.. Wouldn't mind paying a little extra (more than a lakh) for this wild one..

                              Is the Racer 125 having 2 cylinders? It has 2 exhausts...and those are Akrapovic!

                                The wheel design of KTM Racer is not suited to my style taste...
                                The KTM Stunt is more to my liking. But, Can you sell a bike without a mud guard here in India? Legally that is...?

                                There are not much differences between both bikes. Exhaust position, graphics and maybe the 12'o clock bar... Like KTM has 3+ models on same 690cc engine. Company policy, I think?

                                I think the engine will be the same, maybe with different gearing. Although, this "half stripe on tyre rim" design in "Stunt", was applied on my pulsar an year ago... So, that caught my eye instantly.

                                But, this is just my opinion. I don't want to purchase a 125cc actually... Maybe a 250 or 690 for me.

                                @ tanay: But, engine has only one outlet for exhaust, suggesting it to be a single cylinder bike.
