Commenting on this, Amit Nandi, vice president, Probiking, Bajaj Auto Ltd said, “ The superbike market is rapidly growing in India and over 6500 get sold in India every month. In KTM and Kawasaki we offer two of the sportiest motorcycle brands in the world through a sales and after-sales network that has been specially created to cater to the specific needs of motorcycle enthusiasts. With the Kawasaki Ninja 250R and 650R we created a category of ‘practical superbikes’ and as a result enjoy a dominant market share of more than 60 per cent in that category.”
He added, “KTM and Kawasaki are our global business partners and along with them we aim to build on our already dominant position in the sports motorcycle segment in India with the Pulsar. There are a number of initiatives in the pipeline on all these three brands that would be introduced over the next 18 months.”
