Seperti diungkapkan Eric Vas, Presiden, Bajaj Auto pada Motorbeam. Saat ini Bajaj Auto yang merupakan distributor Kawasaki di India sedang mempersiapkan segala keperluan untuk proses CKD (Completely Knock Down).
Sebelumnya, Bajaj Auto telah memasukan Kawasaki Ninja 250R di India, dan saat ini perusahaan India ini rupanya sangat tertarik dengan potensi motor gede di negaranya.
Rencananya, Ninja 650R kini akan dijual 6 Lakh Rupee atau sekitar Rp 116,7 jutaan. Indonesia kapan ya? Kawasaki Motor Indonesia (KMI) malah lebih tertarik memasukan supersport Kawasaki ZX6 yang akan dilaunching bulan Juli 2011 mendatang. (motorplus-online.com)
