Catering to the Indian sub-continent, motorcycle makers Triumph and Bajaj are collaborating to launch a small displacement motorcycle. Slated to take place this July 5, the partnership will likely see two small bikes launched at the 400 cc or below mark, reports carandbike.com.
Only a teaser image has been released of
the impending Triumph Bajaj bike. From what can be seen, the line of the tank
and the ribbed seat indicate this will be a model following the retro style of
the Triumph Bonneville. Spyshots and reports from around the internet indicate
the new bike models will be a naked sports and scrambler. The small retro bike
market in India is dominated by Royal Enfield.
The two bikes will be globally unveiled
later this month on June 27 at Triumph’s headquarters in Hinckley, UK,
according to a statement by Bajaj Auto Managing Director Rajiv Bajaj. Assembly
will take place in the Bajaj plant in Chakan, Pune.
