Coming soon 125cc bike from Bajaj-KTM

Bajaj Autos seems to be all set to launch the first KTM bike in India by this July. This KTM bike will have a 125cc engine.

This 125cc bike will be a sports model instead of a dirt bike and will be equipped with liquid cooled fuel injected engine system along with mono shock at the rear. The 125cc engine will be capable of producing 15ps of power.

The bike will be shipped as a CKD unit and will be assembled at the Bajaj’s plant at Chakan. After imposing the import and custom duties this 125cc bike will cost around 2 lakhs placing it just below the Kawasaki-Bajaj Ninja 250R in terms of price!

KTM has already displayed these 125cc models at the EICMA Show in Milan, Italy last year and it was expected that these bikes will make it to the 2010 Auto Expo in Delhi.

However KTM bikes were put up for display at the 2010 Auto Expo but those were KTM Super Duke and Duke 690MM and not a 125cc model.

The KTM bikes which will be launched in India are expected to be similar to those displayed at the EICMA Show in Milan, Italy.
