TVS Darken X21 is a concept bike and it might be possible that its production will starts from august 2015 but still there is no any guarantee that it will launch this year or next year.
Draken is totally a naked bike and has its own birthmark in the form of the brown chassis seen running from the tank to the bottom, making it one of its kinds. The fuel tank looks massive and the exhaust gets its special place with panels around it. With a very aggressive front, the headlamp is sharp and looks pretty innovative.
Powering the beast is a 249.2 cc, 4-value-single cylinder engine which produces 38.5 BHP @ 12,000 rpm and 23 NM @ 9500 rpm. The engine is liquid cooled and mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Performance offered would be brilliant as TVS is more concerned at performance issues than the looks.
Front suspension is the upside down telescopic forks and rear being managed by offset monoshock suspension. From the positioning of the monoshock to the big bulky looking front suspension, Draken has everything bold and beautiful. Braking is handled by a single petal disc at the front which seems to be around 280 mm and a petal disc, to be around 200 mm is employed at the rear. However, no exact figures have been provided by TVS.
The Draken offers 170 mm of ground clearance, making it easy to manage every road type in the country and at 134 kg, it seems to be easy while handling. Material used seems to be strong yet lightweight for the TVS Draken. It will arrive with a tyre size of 120/70-R17 for the front and a massive 160/50-R17 for the rear. A totally different shaped alloy has been given to the Draken.
Draken has a fully digital instrument cluster which looks more like a rear view mirror of a car, but truly saying feels very futuristic. From speed to time and time to distance everything is housed in a single piece of technology.
No statement about the color availability has been made by TVS as the display model was fully white in color. The futuristic beast is expected around INR 1,62,000 giving tough competition to the naked bikes of the same segment.
