6 KTM RC 200 and 390 Price in India?

What could be the on road price of the RC 200 and 390 that would be launched in India?

If KTM matches the price as I have speculated..

..one has to be ignorant about motorcycles or a Honda fanboy to go for the Honda CBR250R/300R

It's just a matter of time before KTM launches its "mini" Super Sport models the RC 200 and RC 390 in India. In most certainty the RC 125 much like the 125 Duke won’t arrive in India as it would be priced out of reach of what Indian’s would like to pay for a 125 cc model. So how much would the RC 200 and RC 390 be priced in India?

So far there has been no official indication for the price in India. But actually it is not too difficult to speculate on the India price. And I am sure that the price would remain around the same level that I would be speculating here.

4 Which is better? Yamaha FZ Vs. Honda CB Trigger

Comparison between Yamaha FZ-16/S and the Honda CB Trigger

Since it's launch the Yamaha FZ-16/S has been the the most desirable 150 cc Street Sports motorcycle available in India. Probably the only thing that prevents it from being the best selling 150 cc motorcycle in India (which has been the Bajaj Pulsar 150's turf for over a decade) is its relatively low fuel efficiency figures (around 35-40 kmpl) for a 150 cc model.

The TVS Apache RTR 160/180 models are too small to have the same kind of presence that the FZ has, the Hero Xtreme is not too everyone's taste in its styling, the Hero Hunk, Suzuki GS 150R bring nothing special to the table and the Pulsar 150 is too common on the roads. Honda CB Unicorn is too commuterish.

Honda tried to break into this desirable 150 cc with it's Dazzler in 2010. But did not taste the success it was looking for. As a result the Dazzler was discontinued and a new redesigned model called the CB Trigger has been launched. Is the Honda CB Trigger good enough to take the Yamaha FZ-16/S head on?
