Bloor also stated that the partnership would develop only mid-capacity motorcycles ranging from 400cc to 800cc. Bajaj is trying to target the segment dominated by Royal Enfield. Expect the new motorcycle to hit the market in the next three to four years.
Currently, Triumph has a CKD (Completely Knocked Down) facility in Manesar, Haryana and will continue to assemble its current range of motorcycles. Bloor stated that there would be no overlap in the domestic or international market as Bajaj has already partnered with KTM and Husqvarna.
