Pulsar 200 ns launched@88600/- ex showroom

but one thing doubt me for future issues in NS-"Triple spark plug".

People had similar concerns about the DTSi tech when it was launched initially. But Bajaj has proven them wrong over the time. Even though i don't see much benefit of 3 spark plugs, I don't see any harm in it too.

May be third one would be for better combustion to gain more mielage without compromising power.This is the main reason,I am in dilemma to get NS or KTM.

With the price difference of around 40K, its a no brainer.

Thats the tempting point for going bajaj way...but again in mind what happen if after one year NS engine is opened and have to spend good amount to repair job.

They are offering 2yrs warranty on the engine, I believe.

One difference is that KTM uses better suspension components. (That is, assuming that the 200 Duke uses some or other WP components, not the rubbish that Bajaj uses.)

One more thing negative for both bikes-exhaust chamber below the engine.I think it is not suitable for typical indian road condition apart from good roads in big cities.At lest they should have given some protection to exhaust chamber

I do. It compromises the flow of fuel in the combustion chamber. Not serious, just not so great. Is it 2 valves or 4? (I can't see how they'd fit 4 valves and 3 spark plugs.)

I agree..was comming to this point.Long travel front and rear suspension in KTM.Boon in off roading.
But again point is-How many will buy KTM for off roading with spending more than 40K if compared to NS.

There is sufficient protection, just that its placed close to underbelly.
