@ BUNNY are more models expected too.....do u know as to which the others might.....how much would the MT-01 cost

[BUSA]

IronWolf, expect the YBR to cost a few thousands shy of a lac or so.

I hear there will be no dealer in bombay, we will have to book in ahmedabad. Also that the bikes have also come here and delivery is in 15-20 days.

Hope they price is competitively, since it lacks rear discs and projector head lamps as seen in the 220 DTSFi

2007 Yamaha YBR 250 specifications and pictures

Those specs are hardly impressive! Does not deserve more than 80k in my books.

news says launch is now on the 19th of nov!

b/w, KTM showcased some of their high ends bikes to a group of bikers from xbhp sometime back in Delhi. they are about to get the 990/690 and 250 offroader very soon, most prolly around the auto expo dates

[Rtech]

Prices of the KTM's? any surprises or would it be 9 lakhs +?

[BunnyPunia]

they havent let out anything. they wanted to know what bikes want. most of the members are quoting 9-10lacs for the 990. lets see what the company does. some say, the 250 EX (250cc 4stroke 37bhp) will be around 2.5, the 690 for around 7..

if yamaha is pricin the r1 at 11lacs, i see no reason why the 990 cant be priced at around 9.5 - 10lacs

ps : do u know ktm's website has been having a mumbai based dealers contact details for over 18months now!

[Fireblader85]

As from what i've heard, the R1 is priced at 13.25 lakhs. There is no dealership in mumbai. Plus if you book now, delivery will be in January 2008 and a total of 40-45 bikes are alloted for India till mid 2008

[speedy]

i thought bombay did have dealers in bombay for their normal bikes. if i am not mistaken had seen one in mahim. is this only for the big bikes that they would not have a dealership in bombay or they shutting down for all bikes?? i am also wondering that the bombay ports would be used right to ship in the bikes so why have the sales of the big bikes from ahmedabad, should'nt it be the otherway around?

[straight6]

It seems that no one is willing to take the dealership because theres not much profit margin. The launch is on 20-21 of this month so we'll find out soon. You can expect john abraham to be there at the launch.

[straight6]

Ok the bikes are being launched in delhi on the 19th, without john abraham because he asked for 2 crores so they asked him to....ahem!

The dealers will be in delhi & ahmedabad(some sardarji in a'bad). So bombay guys take your pick.

If the Yamahas are 10+, expect KTMs to be 20+

Did you go see them dude? Those are some really slick machines. I've ridden the Supermoto KTM and they got thump man.

KTM's are expensive unfortunately. I've been aching to get the Superduke but its pretty pricey for what it offers.
