                        for sure, even TN bikes are damn reasonable compared to KL ones !! I think it is a similar sceneraio as the real estate !! people just buying and selling in a short span, so price goes up by couple of thousands every time ?? most bikes have/had at least 3-4 owners, none of them change the ownership in the RC !@####$$

                          In TN and AP prices are lower wen comparing to KL and KA.

                          I recently saw an ad in 'olx', saying he got two RXZ for sale. I called him he said he sold out both one for 1Lakh and other for 76k. Both KA reg bikes.

                            ok...me from KTM proper only but till now not visited the famous Chettayiz work shop once!! i heard there is a painter next to his workshop (may be the same pinter you refered) who is pretty good (SGM guy told me as they also depend on this guy) I still go to Japan (kodimatha) where i think chettai was working years before. there is one Pradeep there a long timer & good friend since years

                            most RXZ are modified with pulsar disc 16 inch wheels etc.. which makes the price even higher, i want to buy a stock bike (read as low price) with a clean chasiss , strip it completely and build. planning to buy by July/August as i am away with work . 30k is fine thanks

                            I think Manarcadu is the HO of KTM RXZ.s !!

                              I even went to Jubily in KTM the then dealer of yamaha to check out a new gleming RXZ 5 speed @58 k they even quote a 17k for my authentic RX100 87 as exchange. but i was so fond of 100 (bought with my fathers money) i could'nt let it go. i still own that 100 but converted to a 135 5 speed with a imported RXK bore. hope to convert it back to a 5 speed 100 and get an RXZ for company

                                Yup Manarkad and Puthuppali boyz got the most number of RXZ there I think..

                                Chettayi is a good mechanic. But I dont believe in that painter. Better you find somewhere else. And if you got any plan to install Disc brakes go for Gladiator only because the installation is simple as gladiator fronk shock outer tube will suit with RX inner tube and thus can avoid any mod to the 'T stem' and there wont be any worry in fitting the front mudguard. One bike is there for 32k.. I will ask them and contact you..
