    Really a good news for riders hunting for a better quality of helmets. However, they have mostly basic models and that too on a slightly expensive side.
    This might also assist existing Shark helmet owners who can get the accessories related to Helmets in India rather than source it from abroad.

        KTM clocked sales of 8,500 units of its 200 Duke motorcycle to emerge as the highest selling premium motorcycle brand in the country

        8500 in 1 year seems to be quite a low figure

          Absolutely. Even Ninja clocked sales of 1000 in its first year. Compared to that, sales of 8500 is absurd. Looking at the number of Duke I see each day, most of the sales must have happened in and around Pune ;-)
          Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

          • Given Zigwheel's definition of 'Premium', Duke was neither competing with R15 nor the 2 CBRs.

            Its competition was Hyosung, Kawasaki, Ducati, BMW, Aprillia & Harley Davidson. No wonder they came top of the table in their first year itself.

            As for the drag race, I guess the participation entries got over a long time back. But we can always watch .
            Advice is a form of nostalgia.
            Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

                • Can anyone suggest a tyre-changing shop for superbikes in Pune? My Husky tyres need replacing. I have the tyres, just need a proper shop that will do it without damaging the aluminum rims...

                    You can try the MRF tyres shop on Nagar road, they do a pretty decent job.

                            • Most of touring public hailing from Pune can check out the Viaterra claw bag, the one which was recently reviewed by Aargee (That was a fantastic review by him comparing both the touring bags which are used widely).

                              Till date, I thought it was supposed to be ordered online and dint knew if it could fit my bike. I guess you all stand a chance to witness it since its avaliable in DSG.

                              Viaterra Claw Saddle-Tailbag Unit - 2,900.00Rs

                              Hope this helps.

                                The bag has been available at DSG for quite a while now. I had seen it on the day we did the Hyosung GV650 shoot.
