“Even though we had planned to launch DTM 150 by April and DTM 150 Combat by May, we decided to postpone the launch due to the frequent strikes that obstructed the shipment of the bikes,” said Gyan Chamling, head of operation at marketing department of the company.[break]
The company has targeted youngsters who love to explore rough terrain and those who are passionate about riding dirt bikes. “The demand for Demak DXM-R was so high that we ran out of stock frequently. We are hopeful that these two bikes will also get good response,” said Chamling.
Though Demak is a new brand introduced in the first quarter of 2011, it has already been the popular choice of Nepali customers in the dirt bike segment.
The DTM 150 features a single cylinder, four-stroke, air-cooled 149cc engine with both kick and electric start. The bike has telescopic inverted front suspension for better maneuver and an adjustable air shock rear suspension for high performance.
The bike has digital speedometer, twin piston caliper front disc brake with steel braided hose for better stopping power and single piston caliper rear disc brake for more durability.
With sporty design muffler, the bike weighs 127 kg and will be little expensive than Demak DMXR. Currently DMXR is available at Rs 238,000. The company provides warranty for travel up to 20,000 km and free servicing for 8 times.
