yes for 5000 bucks more it's justified as these four things are 'lot'....Originally posted by payeng View Post
but anyone who has known RTR will jump for 180 and wont be buyin 160 FI....
in my case i would hve gone for 180 if i was to purchase a bike at this time....
but i'm having PARTY with my FI........

An increment of Rs. 5,000 (about 70,000) over the carb RTR 160 seems to be the sweet spot for me..
17 Ps
Wider 110 section, Tubeless Tyres
Rear Disc brake
Special White Color
Rs.5,000 extra..?? Yeah why not..??

the RTR 180 should be around 67000-70000...IMO....
lets see how TVS price this machine....in any case it'll attract loads of buyers as it'll have the same madness of RTR 160 with lil' more grunt........
but tht'll put FI in trouble for sure......
But if its (carb RTR 180) above 75,000.. the equation gets altered a little.

if the pricing is something like what its rumored to be, its a big kick in the a$$ for rtr fi owners. like me

I always liked the RTR 160 for its handling.. with the extra grunt (17Ps which is equal to that of ZMA), and weighing just 137kgs.. the RTR 180 has become quite an attractive option to have.
I understand that in these recessionary times, expecting a total makeover or a completely new model is difficult. Just hoping that TVS doesn't mess up with its pricing.Leave a comment:

I think it would be better if they have kept same block as of rtr and used apache crank shaft. the bore x stroke would be 62 x 57.8.
it will be 173.3 cc bike then with 10.3:1 comp ratio. almost equal to R15. Only thing would be we would have to use Power or Speed petrol then for carb. version.Leave a comment:

@johnjojo-I will rather go by TVS official word rather than following a magazine.Leave a comment:

R u sure wheelbase is 1320mm( same as flame).. According to bike india wheelbase is increased 40mm , according to overdrive increase is 30mm.. Current RTR's wheelbase is 1300mm.. Which means 180 wheelbase is 1330mm Or 1340mm.. But 1320mm? If it is 1320mm they can share the swingarm b/w flame and RTR..Originally posted by MG_Biker1806 View PostHad a word with the officials.The bike should be in showroom by the end of this month or beginning of next month(Atleast we can have a look at the bike). The wheelbase is 1320mm an increase of 20mm.Weight will be 137kgs which is just 1kg more than 160cc RTR. Boy o boy will it be a scorcher or what.
Just waiting to get my hands on that white RTR.Leave a comment:

I think it should be priced a bit below 160 FI. It won't kill the 160 FI because people who want latest technology in their bikes and those who want better mileage will still go for itOriginally posted by Grafix View Post Pricing it above 160 FI is absolutely unjustifiable IMO.
