    TVS was never into doing sticker job only. Same thing was done with victor also. The stock was GL, refined was GX(which had new sticker job).
    Hyperedge has lots of refined engine components. The sticker job and hyperedge name is just to highlight the new level of refinement, a upgrade. RTR was always a perfect handler and performer. Hyperedge have refined it.
    Well,actually I've my doubts here too..When the 180 was launched everyone who rode it for a few miles reviewed it to be very 'refined' than the 160..For the first few days,the 180 didn't feel harsh..But now,it's shakes/vibrates like a mixer :P ..And I loveeee it...

    What dissapoints is that it is just "All show and No go" from apache..
    Was expecting some serious stuff from them.

    Damn i didnt . It was day time and totally forgot about it. I even didnt look at the speedo. I was just staring at the RPM needle on the tacho . the only thing i noticed was that even after the HYPER EDGE crosses 6k rpm, it was still smooth .

    Finally i rode the HYPER EDGE today. I couldnt rip the bike as the bike was new and the chain was a bit loose and was making some weird noises. Anyways i liked the grunt. Basically it felt completely same as the RTR 160 but the main difference was that there were very less vibrations compared to the old RTR. I liked the power delivery too throughout the rev range. Though i wont call it as an upgrade but this could very well can be called as the RTR refresh. Now it a good option for the riders who used to ignore the RTR because of the vibes

    But now TVS is stepping in the HH way totally.

    But TVS shouldn't really discontinue the RTRFi(in another news I have heard that Karizma R has been stopped too by Hero Honda !!!).......for this

    Maybe TVS revamped RTR160 just the way Hero Honda plans to revamp their Hunk.
    i am unable to see ZMA R latest HH Ads....So waiting for a new ZMA with Rear disc
