[What Bike]: Successor to FZ wanted ! - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

Dear Xbhpians,

Sold my FZ last nite, looking for a great successor to it. Confused between P220 & RTR-180 but decision is mostly on 220-side, has r15 in mind as well but will not buy bcoz of small dimensions.

Currently has a P200 & ZMA-R in stable, looking for another power horse to ride. Also a bit confused since speculation is that apache-220 is on the way but no definate clues/spy pics yet !

Plz advice guys...

Dear Aryan,

Thanks for approving, definately needs your opinion too for my new ride. After all, you are one of the key players in our Xbhp's success

220/RTR got loads of torque and bhp to win all street races but the ultimate performance is given by R15...

I Vote for 220.. As a successor.. only if choosed between the two

This line has me confused. BY dimensions, do you mean bike is small? If so, then won't RTR be small too?

Considering your handsome collection in your stable. I feel R15 is sorely missing there. P220 is no doubt good and better than P200, but R15 is.. you know something very different. That is if you can resolve the "dimensions" issue.

On other hand. Since you already have a good collection, it wouldn't hurt to wait till new bikes are launched. I would.

Went to PROBIKING today to have a close encounter with Ninja, everything is in place except the most important sight from saddle - IT'S CONSOLE. Kawasaki must replace this one with something similar to... say R15 kind consule to make it 101% updated.

Just for time-being, had booked a p220-F (Blue)... delivery will take place in 20days time but I may cancel my booking if any new spy-pics/authentic news surfaces in these 19 days. Till then I've decided not to ride any bike myself & will finalise something in this probation period.

you learn to live with the console when the bike thrills you with the power and acceleration. none the less, a good decision.
