Bajaj sells 200 Kawasaki Ninja's in India since launch

Bajaj launched the 250cc Kawasaki Ninja in October last year and has already managed to sell 200 units. According to the company

"What makes this motorcycle unique is its near-perfect combination of performance, riding comfort and ease of handling. As a result it is as popular among casual riders as it among serious enthusiasts. In India, in a market cluttered with overpowered litre class motorcycles, the Kawasaki Ninja 250R will be the only supersport motorcycle whose performance is practical for Indian conditions. And with a price tag of less than Rs. 3 lakh, it is well within reach of those seeking a supersport motorcycle."

In addition to this, Bajaj hopes to sell 1000 units of the Kwacker in 12 months! Good going, Bajaj, is all what we can say right now!
