Kawasaki and Bajaj tie-up has finally came to an end as KTM won’t be selling the Green breed of bikes from their dealerships. This makes the situation for Kawasaki bikers more difficult as they won’t even be able to use the service facility of the KTM showrooms and would need to rely on the limited number of Kawasaki dealerships only.
Kawasaki-Bajaj sales & service tie-up comes to an end
The same was a big advantage to KTM as the customer would come in for buying the Ninja series of motorcycle and go out with the Orange rider in his possession. They are most of the times lured by the price difference and change their decision due to many other reasons like waiting or non availability of bikes in their Probiking dealership.
KTM, on the other hand will benefit from both the sides as they will get some extra space for the newcomer (250 Duke) in their showrooms. The tie-up between both was expected to end by March 2017 and the same was expected to be applicable for the services through the network. KTM dealers have even halted the stocking of Kawasaki parts.
KTM will launch its all new Duke series in India today (Feb 23). The series is expected to add 2017 KTM 250 Duke in the lineup, helping riders that are not willing to spend a fortune worth 390 Duke but are not even satisfied with the performance of 200 Duke. Kawasaki was retailing Z250, Ninja 300, ER-6n, Versys 650, and Ninja 650 through the Bajaj network.
