There is no extra charge for the White colour... I have booked the Bike at Innovative TVS, Bhandup. The dealer there told me that there is no extra cost specified by the company for white, but other dealers sometimes charge extra.

Innovative was one of the dealers listed in the TVS website. So i went there.. I was given a (rather small and useless!!) test ride. But then their price is 75,400 OTR for all colours.. And they give a helmet(which is not very good quality!), a bike cover, Buzzers, and Grips free.. So this deal made them cheaper than all the other dealers with whom I enquired. And yes they have their own service centre too. And this was the only dealer with whom White colour had no waiting period at that time and also for no extra charge. I booked the bike 6 days back. My bike s waiting in the showroom as I yet have to sort out the required documents. Maybe I ll get delivery in a day or two..

In the city, its more of the rider than the machine!
Rightly said.Another bike u ought to look for is the honda shine that has a damn good initial.Well i one time had a drag with one.Was damn surprised by its initial.But when i reached the highway it was smile,twist the throttle and up up away.
Back to the topic,i always liked the exhaust note of the rtr 160.Does the 180 have the same note?
