Bajaj Auto launched its premium
motorcycle Duke 390cc - the second variant under the Bajaj-KTM
partnership in Kolkata.
At the launch, the
company said it has drawn up plans to launch more racing bikes for Indian roads
in the coming years.
"Bajaj-KTM
will launch two variants of the RC brand of 'faired' racing bikes in the calendar
year 2014 under the sub-500 cc category," said Amit Nandi, Vice-President
of Bajaj Pro biking.
Faired racing
bikes, as opposed to nude ones, have engines covered for better aerodynamics at
high speed.
Nandi said that the
company sold around 8,000 units of KTM bikes in the last financial year in
India.
He said that around
25,000 units were exported to Europe, Latin America and South East Asia.
"The small displacement KTM bikes were being manufactured at Pune plant
and sold globally."
Nandi said racing
bikes were the fastest growing segment in the two-wheeler space.
He said the company
was looking at 10 per cent growth in the racing category in the current fiscal.
