Since this news is on the tv, i hope there will be no more post deleting.

The bike has softer tyres. And carburetor means easy installation of K&N. More bump in performance.

The Carb 220 seems nice but can they make a 133 KMph[Actual not speedo] bike to a 145 one with a Carb ? . i thought a good Fi with good Ecu can increase power . Maybe they read Xbhp and will give K&N and Iridium spitfire/splitfire mumbo jumbo and claim what you guys do from mechanic we will give from factory and ur bike will go till 145 Kmph [im sure there are many who do beleive these things]

When It Comes to speed we rule the Game -
Instead of spectaculating all these, just wait and see.

It cannot be priced 70k, if it is then God knows what's the quality. FZ and R15 are quality leaders right now. Yamaha also wanted to price R15 at close to Rs 85k.
P220 is going to be launched in China or What?

Top speed claims ll be backed by Testing gear equipment results. It s not speedo indicated.

Quality leaders ? far from it my friend . just because they are overpriced doesnt mean they are good quality . Only HH has right balance of quality and quantity

I was of the opinion that only the Honda Brand had the "birth right" to that claim.

There.. didn't I say so..


Why doesn't someone drag TVS Motors in the fray too..




Please stick to the TOPIC: i.e. "New Pulsar 220 to launch on June 23".
Am pretty sure MG is still on duty.
