Lal, not confirmed any price for the bike officially, but the bike expected to be withing price range of 3.2 Lakh ex-showroom price which sounds very fair comparing the specification and the current available bikes from other brands in same cc segment.
great looking bike! very classy! just a bit heavy…? if rims are steel, alloy would save some kg’s. a two-in-one exhaust could save some kg’s too… just a thought. that’s what i would do to mine. what’s the retail price in new zealand?
