    I don't encourage this, coz end of the day you will be paying more for the performance you gain, when compared to others.

    Just move on to Joel's 170CC and his other stuff. coz RTR are rock solid when compared to other bikes. You can be more confident on modding than any others.

    If you are very much interested, then I will get you the parts list soon.
    thats why i need a exact part list with price to see the difference . i would be very grateful if u can tell me the partlist needed to make 160 to 180.

          Hey, I just found this Service Manual and it differentiates between RTR 160 and 180 in every aspect.

          Note down the Parts and collect the Pricing at the nearest TVS showroom, coz all Manufacturers have raised their spares prices this year.

            harish read the file but didnt understand it fully .

            btw i read that its possible to change stock rtr 160 to 180 by changing
            crankshaft with con rod rs 3000
            rtr 180 tci - rs 700
            no need of new bore piston
            29 mm carb = 2300
            info from zen tvs bangalore i think .
            i would like the enlightened ones to throw some xenon light on this .

              Are you planning to use the same Cylinder Head?

              Valve timings differ between RTR 180 and 160, so if your planning to get the RTR 180's Cylinder Head. then next concern is the Exhaust.

              RTR 160's Exhaust has a smaller mouth to the Cylinder end and not sure how to increase the Dia, so you have to switch over to an FFE or RTR 180's Muffler kit.

              Let me list down the Parts that are required,
              RTR180's,
              Cylinder Head (Gaskets and others can remain the same)
              Exhaust
              Secondary air injection pipe. (RTR180's have Air Reservoir in it)
              Cylinder Block and Piston
              Carburetor Assy
              Intake Pipe at Carburetor
              Crankshaft Assy
              Oil Pump with its Driven Gear(due to 1.2 liters PM capacity in RTR180) (PS; Only the Oil Pump capacity has been increased and the Engine oil capacity is still 1000Ml)
              Engine Sprocket teeth for 13T to 14T. (To avoid Transmission loss)

              I suppose its better to order for an FFE to start with and then gradually get the other modds from Joel.

                Forgot to mention,

                RTR180's,

                TCI Unit
                Rear Sprockets from 44T to 46T

                and to complete the entire setup more precisely,

                You have to either change or modify the swingarm to increase the wheel base and also get a new Drive Chain.

                    190cc bigbore block with special racing piston for RTR 180
                    So you don't get to go for 180cc(forget 190cc) from an RTR160.

                      Hi guys!!
                      I want to upgrade my 220 to a better performing motorchcle. What all should i consider for an upgradation, other than works related to engine mods??

                      For example sparkplugs , airfilters, exhausts or anything else.
                      Only recently i came to know that FFEs are not legal in our country, so alif any other upgrades in regards to exhausts that might help?

                      Appreciate the help

                            How about upgrading the bike in total instead of these upgrades which may/may not give you power boost but definitely won't last half of what a stock bike lasts, at least not without giving you troubles every now and then and putting a big hole in your pocket. . . So it's better, you decide, before that go through the thread mentioned above and then say if you want to go for an upgrade. . .
