Waiting for Bajaj Kawasaki Ninja 250 (small kwaker!) release in India.It is rumoured that bajaj will localize the components to around 80% if I remember correctly.The Price will come down in that case.If Ninja made available for 2lakhs Indian Rupees ,it will be steal of a deal!
The time to rejoice for many a biker is just around the corner for Bajaj has finally given out a clearer understanding as to when they will finally launch the KTM bikes and the much awaited Kawasaki Ninja 250 in India.
No doubt, the wait has been long, as the news first made its way around at the 2008 Auto Expo, however market scenarios change and companies need to take the right measures before introducing a new model into the country. There is enough being said about these particular bikes at the moment and Bajaj is definitely working towards making these dream machines a reality.

Post the 2008 Auto Expo held in Delhi, Bajaj has been working very closely with KTM to make two new bikes for the Indian market. Those in the know will remember that Bajaj has now acquired a 40 per cent stake in KTM, so the plans are extremely serious and not some far fetched PR gimmick.
Bajaj-KTM, if I may call it that, is set to introduce their bikes in 2010. When exactly, is yet to be confirmed, but the fact that 2010 is also the year for the Auto Expo in Delhi, I would not rule out a January launch, for at least one of the products.
Kawasaki Ninja 250:
The Kawasaki Ninja 250 is another bike that Bajaj stated they would bring in to the country at the 2008 Auto Expo. It has been a long wait for this dream machine and die hard fans have kept track of this bike throughout. We at Zigwheels continue to get inquiries regarding this bike, well let me say that we share your enthusiasm and we too have been waiting for this bike.
Bajaj has claimed that the Ninja 250 will indeed come to India within the next 3 months! The bike will come in as a CBU product and is touted to have a price tag of over Rs 2 lakh at the time of launch.
It might have taken an additional year to get here, but the Ninja 250 launch will happen by September this year, so if you think 3 months is a long time, my suggestion would be to plan ahead and start saving up the dough, for this is one bike that you absolutely must have in your garage.
