    P220 spares are too cheaper than hondas & yammies the disc pads of 220 costs 350 with labour charges & all.

      The Pulsar stickers on the tank might be a slight exception. Bajaj has always given the best value for money for anything that it has touched.

      Be it it's own products or even imports like Kawasaki products.

      I appreciate the rev happy nature (it doesn't feel stressed at high rpms) of the P135LS, it's light weight body and the way the baby pulsar handles. These qualites should definitely trickle down to the next gen Pulsars.

                  I'm sure I read this somewhere. It's some dealer in Indonesia, who is offering this for P220. Hope dealers here in India take a leaf out of this and offer some custom modifications to our bikes!!

                    I believe that the full fairing system should itself have a fan or cooling system built in. So that, it should serve the cooling purpose.

                    One more thing I would like to say, is that will you believe this link below:

                    New Bajaj Pulsar on its way!

                    It says P200 is going to have almost everything we want- all new chassis and engine, monoshock, reliable parts from KTM's Duke, 140 kgs wet weight, etc. If that's true than we are in for some great times ahead!

                      That farticle from BSM is funny!
                      It doesnt say anything apart from what Mr. Bajaj has already told us about the bike.... just that it glorifies it a lot.

                      My list remains the same like back then!
                      - Get rid of the tank (the beefed up P135 sounds good)
                      - Get a better chassis (Twin spar is nice!) and better suspension
                      - Redesign the fugly headlight,

                      And may be hire me :P (actually dont!)

                        Yep.The 220 has one of the worst projectors.Glares at least 50% more than any projectors(even cheap Chinese ones).It hurts oncoming traffic so bad,actually its even hard to check your RVMs when a 220 is there behind.Initially i use to think they were flashing at me!

                          Hmm.. I wouldn't know as I have been behind the projector most of the time. From the rider point of view, those are the best lights on any desi bike.

                          I actually love to flash the Ultra Bright hi-beam on the P220 on those cars who ride on hi-beam , to give them a taste of their own medicine.

                            Talking about high beam,another thing comes to my mind.
                            I hope the future 220's have dual beams...i mean that the LOW beam should stay on even when flashing.

                              My wishlist for a revamped, future, better P220F:

                              better rvm
                              better tank
                              better display
                              better chassis
                              better exhaust
                              better alloys & tyres
                              lower weight, height & seat
                              front usd forks & rear monoshock
                              refined, 4-valve, water cooled engine
                              refined gear box & 6th gear with better ratios
                              better reliaibilty & quality
                              better service

                              Hope it does not sound like I am asking for a BEST: KTM

                              (P.S: I am really happy with my P220F despite some challenges)

                                Exactly.. it just looks like they wanted some clicks on their site!!
                                Rajiv Bajaj has already said that next Pulsar is based on Duke platform - so a chasis upgrade is given, 4-valve engine for Pulsar line-up seems a certainty now. What's more?? we need to wait and see!!
