      • Hello sire,

        As a KB fan I've collected various info about the bike but I'm still lost with this COLT model which came as low priced one. Any idea and pics of the bike??

                  No sire. I have constantly heard from KB fans about a COLT model released in the KB series. It was a low priced bike which had speedometer from the 4S Champion and no battery I guess. According to what I've heard the rest of the bike was the same with just a few cost cutting factors. And was it an Al bore for the Fury??

                      Hello Boss,
                      If you mean KB here as Kawaski BAJAJ , then to my best of the knowledge there is nothing came as COLT, from Bajaj stable!!
                      Here at Girish's collection you can see a YEZDI COLT, a 60cc two stroke machine from m/s Ideal Jawa ltd., Mysore., INDIA.

                      Think you are pointing at this>>>
                      From GPV's Fury....yes the Speedo is of Explorer, will get the right one soon.
                      cheers!!
                      KMK(powertwin) aka Muthu sir
                      ps: Yes I was the guy sourced this FURY to GPV, so i must also source a Fury's speedo also

                      ..yaeh!! it is bit confusing...wether you are asking for Colt or FURY??
                      Here you go>>>
                      If COLT:::> The Cylinder bore is SG Iron sleeved bore
                      If FURY :::> The Cylinder is Alloy, with Hard Chromed bore

                        The above link should explain what I am asking for.

                        As for the fury speedometer. Yes pls get him one, since the fury will manage to bring the needle in the explorer speedo to max in third gear. And thanks for the info on the bore. I was referring to the fury.

                          Few people may know that the KB100 had 5 variants:

                          1. KB100 when launched
                          2. KB100 RTZ
                          3. KB100 Colt (Yes that's right, I am sure no one knows of it)
                          4. SX Enduro
                          5. KB100 RTZ Delta Super-tuned (With Resonator).

                          This is the correct lineage of the KB bikes
                          The COLT was a stripped down cheaper version of the KB100.. mostly 4S parts, no seat cowl, 4s meters etc.. i might be having a pic..

                          well , no other go..will poke the Doc (yamdoot) to dig out the pics of your fav Colt!!!
                          I bet by this time our net wizard (GPV) would have sourced a Fury speedo from Germany itself...any way will get one soon!!
