	Vehicle Overview
	TVS Draken 250 is a concept motorcycle, which now inspires the recently launched TVS Apache RTR 200. It came with premium parts, futuristic technology and a beefier, street fighter looks. The alloy wheel design, tank shrouds and even the front fascia are more or less the same in the RTR 200. TVS will never launch the Draken in India, as it was a concept model for display at Auto Expo.	Kawasaki Z250 SL is a single cylinder street bike that uses a powerful 249cc engine producing 27.62 BHP at 9700 rpm and 22.6 Nm at 8200 rpm. It comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox and claims a top speed of 153 kmph. The bike is still not on sale in India and would be the best option for Kawasaki if they plan to bring a localized product. It weighs just 148 kg and could help rider with less than average height with its 785 mm of seat height. The bikes in competition includes Benelli TNT 250 and Mahindra Mojo 300 in India.
