Question Freakin out for RTR!!

Hey Guys,

I've searched for some new 150cc segment bikes and I prefer some sporty bike. So think that RTR 160 can be my ride!

Now I'm totally confused about the models coz RTR 160 comes in three variant....the Fi, Refresh and the Hyper Edge!! Which one do I prefer??

And tell me one more thing guys......do i made a right choice for this????

dont go for fi. as it is has not much increase just .4bhp.

characteristics of fi are the prower delivery is different in fi. it is more linear and also the exhaust sound if different.
will save you around 8k .

in refresh and hyper choose which ever according to your budget and looks you want.

Apache FI is not available now.Even if it is available in your city,dont buy it.FI loses its power and refinement after riding for some kms,it becomes rough and more importantly A.S.S is an issue.
Go for the new Hyperedge.It is more refined among the earlier version of 160.
