    Despite the continuing difficult market conditions have increased in both the KTM off-road and street segment, the market share. Over the first three quarters of both the stock by stock and the KTM-stock would be reduced significantly.

    By the late autumn of 2010 starting serial production of street bikes for the entry-level (125 cc to 350 cc) in cooperation with Bajaj Auto Ltd., Is in addition to the traditional KTM markets, additional market opportunities in the emerging markets, the first step, especially in Brazil, where a market campaign is already in preparation.

          if 350cc comes only from bajaj's stable then it's gonna be a value for money product just like p220.but if it comes from bajaj+ktm then i think it'll be overpriced just like ninja.

            I just hope the KTM125s get a good launch....
            To me, this is going to be the first baby steps into the motard category and that defines the future of KTMs in India.

                Good atleast the build quality of bajaj will get better in future if they start working with KTM.AND I think so that the 350cc bike might also a single and a motard.Since its KTM the chances of small and multi cylinder bike is less.So if the bike is single then the price could be less and around or less than the ninja but cant say anything about the performance might be around similar to ninja.

                  What about the parallel twin bajaj was working on? We heard much about that.This was the bike I was waiting for and I was expecting a twin.

                    raining 200+cc bikes soon

                    Wow Bajaj-KTM 350 should be a killer, hoping most of the technology is coming from KTM and logo from Bajaj ... I know this would mean pricing to be high but if produced in India, cost can be reduced.

                    Two years from now Indian roads will be flooded with exotic bikes from pretty much every manufacturer in the business (approx ~3Lacs) from NINJA 250 and probable bikes such as (announced and ToBeAnnounced) Honda cbr250R, Mahindra MOJO, KTM125, bajaj KTM 350, Yamaha 250 and hyosung GT250 ... Havent heard anything from Suzuki and TVS side , guess we will be hearing something from their end too pretty soon ....
                    Hyosung GT650R and st650 are above the 3 lac limit but will invite Kawasaki 650 soon ...

                    Happy days ahead

                      Don't think Ninja is overpriced.. pricing is just right for Indian market if you compare it with overseas markets.

                      Coming to the topic.. they just mentioned they are working on 125 to 350cc bikes.. this is not confirmation that they are indeed working on a 350cc bike right now.. they might do that later, rest assured, this is pure speculation.

                          Exactly..they haven't mentioned that its a 350..they have just given a range between 125-350..going on Bajaj's habit, they might launch 10 bikes in that range with 20cc difference

                            Do they mean that BAJAJ will play a role in the engine development or just work along or import...like the DUKE 125?

                            anyway..hoping for the best...Best of Luck Bajaj!
