    1) P200NS switchgear is backlit?
    2) What is the colour of illumation for the speedo console
    I guess this answers your query.

    Maybe you are right..that could be true....
    by the way can you tell me what's the booking amount of the P200 NS and what is the waiting period ?
    Regards.

    Its the softer suspension compared to the NS , although NS' stiffer suspension boosts its rideablity in the corners & provides better agility.

The vehicle is pretty quick for our traffic and can kill anyone if not taken proper care.
    Very good end note for a great review. I really beleive these new breeds of bikes like ns, ktm, cbr are very sharp knives and have to be used very very carefully. We need to mind especially when riding inside the city where moms are riding their kids to school, elderly people might be driving a commuter very carefully, school children might cross with their tiny bicycles etc. These bikes need lot of maturity and being with a adrelanline junkie kid or with a illegal street racer would be a nightmare for everyone.

    P220 is an old machine and one will feel it when he takes a back to back ride. Only advantage of P220 over P200NS - Better high speed stability above 120 with less wind turbulence, better performer on off-road terrains

    Thanks

    "No reliability glitches"

    Thanks MG.
    I hope this bike removes a bit unreliable image of pulsar(pulsar lovers please ignore my comment- I am expecting not to receive any comments for this post.This is just my opinion -no hard evidence from my side).

    Nice, then i will wait for their reviews before actually booking it, but not for long.

    Just saw on some websites that it is selling in Delhi, i live in Haryana,
    can i go and book it in Delhi showroom, if yes which one (according to availability)?

    Hi,
    nice write up MG
    I want to know how is it expected to perform in high altitude areas, will we feel lack of FI ?

    How high did you took it while testing ?

    Thanks.

    Quality & reliability are two different things. Yamaha provides the best quality among all manufacturers, KTM is also there but they have just started. Reliability is same for almost all the manufacturers.
    The whole purpose of any testing is to thrash the bike in real world to see whether the bike is able to take all the torture and this bike fared very well minus some small irritants which were corrected for production

    thank you for clarifying..
