totally man!... even i coudnt beleive it, i actually did a mileage test, where i had a litre of petrol in the tank, and was carrying another 1.5 L.. was doing constant 70-75 n the highway plus traffic......the only logic to this can be that, coz the k&N is sucking more air,the amount of fuel sucked in is lesser, and the low-range torque has considerably, significantly dropped, you need to keep the bike above 4k rpm for feeling the punchy 180 engine..as i had already mentioned somwhere, i had gone to shirdi and back, got 40-42 Km/L after cruising above 80Km/Hr continusoly for like 500kms..decent huh!...

still havent tested the top-end as my sparks were like 13k kms old!, just changed them yesterday, will put in a new dose of 300v...let us see...before the bike used to easily keep pulling till 123-124...for that i needed to heat the engine properly, in the first blast itself the bike had not touched that figure for quiet sometime, probably coz of the sparks i guess...but the 0-70 and 70-120 is now fcukin faster, you know scary fast, Like when you are kinda accustomed to the bike which does a 60-120 in ages, now the speedo ticks like that of a RTR!!! trust me the 180's engine is full of surprises..
