    The Pricing for the RTR 180 would now be interesting.

    By pegging it less than the FZ would mean, pricing it lower than the RTR 160 Fi which would make it difficult for the RTR 160 Fi to remain attractive.

    If not, then the 2009 P180 UGIV would get a pricing advantage (as it is already selling for about Rs. 4,000 lower than the FZ16).

    Pricing

    It looks like we have to wait till the economic recession is over for a completely fresh/different looking model (BAL too seems to be following the same philosophy with its 2009 P150/180 UGIV).

    Regarding the pricing of the RTR 180, I think pricing it below (and not above) the FZ16 would make it an attractive option.

    In keeping with its intention to bring racing technology to the common man, the company will further strengthen its premium segment with a new higher capacity motorcycle, which is expected to be launched during this month. The sporty design, outstanding ride dynamics and homegrown technology promises to make it a preferred choice for high performance seekers. The motorcycle will be packed with high tech features including digital speedo, trip meter and many other functions.
    so we can expect it this month , cool.

    my friends uncle works in tvs and he said they attained 125.89 kmph true speed so that will be 135 kmph on the speedo...impressive for a 180cc bike it all means this bike ****s karizma and is close to 220
