    You wont have any problem of vibration at 100. Just that it will be sluggish to reach there. Especially with pillion.

            If I have the money, I will pick the CBR over the RS200. Because its a more matured motorcycle. It have more performance., Its a better touring motorcycle. These are big differences. And I think RS is slightly heavy for the motor it have. ABS is a better unit on CBR . All these comes at a minimum of 50k difference in price for ABS model. It is easy to see that RS 200 is not in the class of CBR250

              You have a point there. So basically, RS is a CBR on budget.

                Can the RS200 exhaust be used on the Duke 200 and Duke 390?

                  No. And why would you want to do that?

                    Why don't you try an aftermarket exhaust. Like akrapovic, yoshimura or two brothers maybe. There are also replicas available. [emoji6]

                      I just wanted to know as someone was asking how the exhaust note is. If it is better than the Duke, it's worth a try. Also the 200NS & RS200 share the bottom half of the engine with the Duke 200. That's why I felt it would fit (maybe with minor mods).

                      Because they are ridiculously priced.

                        Hi, excuse my ignorance. This is my first post on xBhp and I'm buying a bike for the first time, and have zeroed in on the RS200 over the CBR250R and R-15 due to various reasons.

                        I'm yet to book the motorcycle, but I'm most likely to do so in the next one week or so. Just wanted to know the checklist for PDI of the RS200.

                        At some of the threads, I think people have considered the PDI checklist of 200NS for the RS200.

                        Is it the same, or anything more that I should be looking for?

                        Thanks, I hope I become a regular on this forum.

                            Mechanically its the same. By looks on the bike, you can make the basic difference. In addititon to the NS checklist, you got to look for Projector lamps functioning (Since in RC series, high beam was not functioning properly), make sure both gets lightened, Tail lamp, Fairing bolts tightened, any vibes you feel can be negated with double sided tape or a piece of rubber underneath it. Coolant level, Engine oil level...most important, ask for first aid kit as mostly during delivery they tend to miss it. I couldnt think of anything else, may be other RS owners can throw some more thoughts.

                                This is by far the best review I've read about the RS200.
                                I'm waiting for the RS400. Great Job on the review guys.
