KTM Hikes Prices Across Range In India By Up To Rs. 3256

KTM India has silently increased prices across its complete motorcycle range in the country. The prices are already in effect from this month onward increasing from Rs. 250 on the KTM 125 Duke, going up to Rs. 3,256 on the RC 390. The price hike is part of the annual revision for the new financial year, although the company has not announced a specific reason for the increase in prices. It's interesting to note that the 125 Duke gets a second price increase in weeks after receiving a hike of Rs. 6800 in March this year.

Apart from the price hike, there aren't any changes to KTM's motorcycle range. The bikes already come equipped with ABS and meet the new safety regulations. That said, the Austrian bike maker is expected to bring two major motorcycles to India this year including the 790 Duke, as well as the highly anticipated 390 Adventure. The latter is expected to be unveiled at EICMA in November and will be introduced in early 2020.

The KTM 790 Duke has not been confirmed yet but the model is expected to arrive sometime later this year as a CKD offering and will take on a host of naked middleweight motorcycles.

While there still doesn't seem to be a buyer for iconic British brand Norton Motorcycles which went into administration in January this year, the firm's 650 cc parallel-twin seems to be finding life in China. While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen. The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
