    Thanks a lot for the replies.

    The price includes everything including VAT and other taxes, insurance, helmet and accessories and handling charges. The breakup is something like this

    BASIC - 60400
    VAT - 8000
    Exshowroom = 68400 (basic+VAT)
    Registration or something like that = 5500
    Smart card (we get cards as registration papers) - 300
    Helmet + accessories - 550+450
    Handling - 300
    Insurance - 1500

    Total = 76500 (approx from what I can recall)

    The show room guy told me that road tax has increased by 2000rupees or so in since April. He said it was 73K ish before April.

    And the showroom is TVS, Khanpur. Thinking about calling all the showroom and conforming the price.

    And lastly, I'm planning to get white colour. Is it a scratch magnet? or it doesn't matter which colour, scratches don't pick and choose
    Here in Mumbai also the showroom guys are quoting 78k along with rto,insurance,accessories and all....they are saying that white colour would cost 1000 bucks more...which is included in that 78k...am purchasing the bike from a sub dealer...coz the place where I stay ...there is no authorised TVS dealer.

    CAT-are you reffering to Catalytic convertor?????

        At 10krpm it was some 114-115km/hr and yes it was a slope too

        But later on the day i hit 11krpm in 3rd gear. the speed was 91-92km/hr!!

        I wonder if we can hit 11krpm in 5th gear(with slope).The 180 should be hitting close to 150km/hr, if that's possible.

        Yeah..it happened with me too some 2 months back..unknowingly at a highway i somehow felt I was at the top gear and was gng at arnd 105kph.suddenly i noticed my tacho is indicating 10.5 rpm and i am struggling to reach 110 km/hr..and then only i shifted to 5th ! ! !..but later it was pretty hard 2 blv that I did that speed@ 4th gear...
        Nothing feels better than to gear up and burn some rubber ! ! !

              No one knows when the next version of any bike will be launched..
              Mileage depends on your riding style
              You can extract 40+ mileage from this baby!

                    Keep it cool with the bike till 1000kms i.e. dont exceed 4k rpm or 60 kmph
                    keep changing the gears,always start your bike by kick in the morning,no unneccesary use of brake.

                        Switch to Motul 5100 10w40 or Motul 300v?


                        Adding K&N wont benefit you until you do upjetting.

                        Removing of air filter will damage your bike's engine as dirt will get through the hole!

                          I would suggest not to change the grade and maintain it i.e 20W-40 as per the specifications of the RTR 180....

Can any one of you guys around the Southern States check for it and PM me if its available? Need it quite badly and I do not want to settle for the 160's sprocket kit. Am prepared to pay extra cost for the shipping...
