They moved on to a tubless platform all by themselves, dont you think its an improvement?Originally posted by rennycornelius View PostTVS use MRF for it's track machines.....
lets see how TVS will be improvin on it's tyres...
till thn they'll be suckin'....
As far as using x Brand tyres for racing is concerned, it has no relevance to what I said....
'says the guy with a MRF C 3.00 x 18 in the rear on the RTR, which is SAME as what TVS uses on the race track
Ignorance is bliss.... I have access to all three of them... (own two, and my bro in law has the FZ)Originally posted by rennycornelius View PostRTR's front is way better than FZ and R15...
The FZ and R15 are in a different league all together when it comes to Braking......!

TVS use MRF for it's track machines.....Originally posted by satyenpoojary View PostThats not necessarily true... MRF had the same reputation a few years back, but look where they are now! Dont Generalize....!

RTR's front is way better than FZ and R15...Originally posted by satyenpoojary View PostThis has got NO relevance to the thread, the RTRs braking is way better than the Pulsars... Infact I would say its second only to the R15/FZ league....

Thats not necessarily true... MRF had the same reputation a few years back, but look where they are now! Dont Generalize....!Originally posted by rennycornelius View Postas long as thr's TVS written on the tyres....
they can't be anti skid or performance tyres....
This has got NO relevance to the thread, the RTRs braking is way better than the Pulsars... Infact I would say its second only to the R15/FZ league....Originally posted by Samarth 619 View PostThis is what happens when disk brakes are strong, but tyres are smaller.
Of course, feel from the brakes is strong on slightest press, but... 
Whenever Bajaj upgrades their front brakes, (say P200 & 220) they upgrade the tyres too. So, that braking improves overall...
1) Your wheelbase answer is in the original posts itself....Originally posted by Samarth 619 View PostThis is just a "fictitious assumption" of Bike India's Staff.
and Wheelbase could have been fine at 1320mm... I wonder why they raised it to 1340, whereas top speed doesn't seem increased.
2) With the RTR its probably the 'response' that they are looking at. i.e. the acceleration and not the top speed... the RTR160 was said to have a top speed of 118KM, I have rode it to 123 on a fairly accurate GPS
I remember the OD team stating that the bike reaches 120Ks rather effortlessly...
With proper riding and gear switching am sure it would perform even better... lets see when the bike comes!
Ah Nice... but I guess the White stil remains a personal favorite!Originally posted by Grafix View Post

@ Mods: Some one told that RTR 180 Gonna launch by june 15th,We all wait for the day if the bike is not launching by this month end LOCK the Thread
If u look at the Video, it clearly states that the RTR 180 is Fuel Injected.
