Then,they have contradicted themselves!!Originally posted by shivank View Post1PS=0.986 BHP.So,17.3PS=17.0578 HP..
It still is above 17 bhp.
+1...
But I have a doubt here.When both,the RTR180 and the P220 have identical pick-up.RTR has better brakes,it's faster to 400m drag and the best roll-on timings..(all as per BI).Then,Why was it left trailing behind P220 by over 3 sec ??(As per BI again)
Btw, we have dragged A180s against P220s. P220 is faster by 2 n 1/2-3 bike lengths in a quarter mile run. But still if you ask me then the difference is not much when you consider the difference of 40cc/~4 PS/~4NM.
Checked the RTR Manual. It says 17.3 bhp!!

Okay sir..but when nobody is sure if it's 17.3 or 17.03 PS,I'll assume it to be 17.3 bhp as per the manual!Originally posted by abhijeet080808 View Post
And that rider is the one showing P220 of others the pair of leds round the twisties astride his RTR-Fi..Right?Originally posted by rennycornelius View Post
Mr.Aspi,I believe is the best-cum-fastest moto-journo we have in our country..Originally posted by payeng View Post
May be the tires scared him pushing bike to limits...

That award for now goes to Varad More.Originally posted by shivank View Post
Enough of discussion about bhp figures, a .2-.3 won;t make much of a difference.
Unbiased guys will admit that a RTR-180 can be faster than any Pulsar on a track and the scenario changes on the road where the P-220 will keep gaining.Comment

And what do you have to say about the R15? Why is P220 lagging behind the R15(which has only 17 PS) if it has 21PS ?Originally posted by abhijeet080808 View PostComment

Why so much hungama?
We all know the RTR180 is going to be faster than the Fat head P220 around a track, if not anything it will keep up for sure even with the improved handling of the 220 (which IMO is still a b*****). I personally have clocked a faster lap time @ MMSC on a RTR160 as compared to my 220
.
But those are track conditions, real world conditions are far more different and 99% of us don't head to the tracks. The only scenario which is almost close to simulating the track in the real world is probably climbing twisties. Here it will all boil down to who's a better rider. The RTR has a stronger mid-range, better handling and the 220 on the other hand monster Torque to propel it quickly out of a corner, but shoddy handling to go with it.
Real world results would be far more different than what the track results show, so lets not bring down a bike coz all are good in their respective arenas.
And the R15 is from a whole new planet altogether, no use comparing it to the old tech stuff that the RTR and Pee run on.Last edited by Praful; 08-04-2010, 10:58 AM._________________________

Agreed. The hungama is because of the 180 turning out to be significantly slower than the p220S on the track.Originally posted by Praful View PostWhy so much hungama?

I think we all also know magazines tend to favor certain manufacturers over the others at different time, its all a money game.Originally posted by Hyperion View Post
Lets not take these numbers to heart and more importantly lets not let these numbers take away the joy of riding these machines!

Seems like we RTR guys cant see it loosing....
...
what if one bike is slower than the other?..what that matters is that we're enjoying every bit of riding on our respective steeds...It all begins with a thumb-start -- Oh, wait, I forgot the kill-switchComment
