Substantial price hikes, updates and launches, this week saw it all
This week saw a lot of important developments in the two-wheeler space ranging from new launches to spy shots and a lot more. Check out the top five stories of the week:
KTM Price Hike And E-bike
KTM India increased the prices of the Duke, RC and Adventure series of motorcycles. Here’s how much you would have to pay now, should you want them.
That said, there’s some exciting news from Team Orange. Bajaj Auto and KTM, whose partnership has flourished well in the past are now venturing into the high-end electric bike segment.
Yamaha News
While the news of the Yamaha RX100 making a comeback delighted many, here’s why it makes sense for it to be in an electric avatar.
Yamaha Thailand then had a treat for its fans as the company launched not only the Dark Blast edition of the MT-03, but also the Fazzio in a range of funky colours.
NTorq Custom Wheels
The TVS NTorq 125 is already one of the sportiest 125cc scooters in the Indian market, and Bengaluru-based Dismotech has taken things up a notch by loading it with custom spoke wheels that are also compatible with tubeless tyres. Find out how much it costs in our exclusive story.
RE Shotgun 650s Spied
After being spotted twice last month, the Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 has been spotted once again, and this time two of them have been seen. The spy shots revealed more about the bike’s design, underpinnings and instrument console.
Hero News
This week was action-packed for Hero MotoCorp. The Indian-best selling bikemaker first launched the Canvas Black edition of the Super Splendor. It not only gives the bike a stealthy appeal but also costs pretty much the same as the base trim.
The Hero XPulse 200T 4V was spotted in an undisguised look. The XPulse 200 4V’s naked sibling will not only get engine tweaks, but also cosmetic changes.
Hero then launched the 2022 iteration of the Xtreme 160R. The bike got a couple of useful updates, but carries the same price tag.
While the Hero XPulse 200 4V Rally Edition sold out, Hero confirmed that it was just the first lot and the next one is being prepped for launch pretty soon. Check it out in our exclusive story.
