Hello Guys,
Sorry for late reply,was busy with work.

Day 3 from date of delivery : Me and my cousin been to TALAKADU mainly for run in.
Bikes: RTR 160 and RTR 180
===RTR 180===

Odo reading:550kms done in 4 days.
Done with 1st service.
Top speed: 125 Kmph on speedo.
Efficiency: Around 35 Kmpl.
Braking: May be best in class. Discs on both front and rear.
Handling: Best for tracks. better than RTR 160.

The bike is Vibe free till about 8K RPM and above that its same like the 160(considerably less tough). Vibration dampers on the handle are bigger than the RTR 160 can be noticed easily.
Errors in the speedometer have been fixed and a new feature of logging the TOP speed(its a menu on the speedometer) has been added.
Exhaust note is a treat to the ears (for me).
Tyres : Both front and rear are 17 inch rims, front 90/80 and rear 110/80
Will post the pics of the ride very soon.

All together a GREAT BIKE!!!
