Many years ago, the partnership between KTM and Bajaj may have seemed somewhat surprising. But it began to bear abundance and soon, KTM bikes manufactured in the Bajaj factory India began appearing in many parts of the world. So much so production has surpassed 1,000,000 motorcycles.

The models include the popular 125cc, 200cc, 250cc, 390cc KTM Duke, RC and Adventure models. Additionally, the partnership also yields th Husqvarna 401 range such as the Svartpilen and Vitpilen.

Perhaps taking a cue from KTM, other manufacturers also began working with motorcycle manufacturers in Asia. For example, BMW and TVS, BMW and Loncin, Triumph and Bajaj, Harley-Davidson and Qianjiang, MV Agusta and Loncin, KTM and CFMoto.
