    On another note, both are FZ1 inspired, and PS: Those are Battalax tyres, and custom panels...!
    I would not agree on Bajaj being better in bringing concepts to reality.. how many concepts did they ever showcase? The P220F took a frustrating long time!
    Stop comparing please! Its kinda kiddish actually!

    Bajaj bough real tangible goods... TVS showed great potential, but it sadly didnt always end up in a product form!

    for those who don't know the actual thing, I'm attaching some of the pics of TVS concepts which were mind blowing in technology as well looks

    in a order like

    TVS Matrix - year 2000 full fared concept
    TVS cruise - year 2000 scooter with good aerodynamics n ergonomics
    TVS Chicane - year 2002 street fighter concept note the monoshock, reardisk, projector headlamp, underseat exhaust, sexy design with those superb alloys
    TVS Predator - year 2006 V twin cruiser concept
    TVS ISOTOPE - year 2006 apache 200cc engine based motocrosser which had won Best design award globally sending ducati to 2nd position
    TVS Fiero Taurus F3 -year 2007 naked beast (350cc engine possiblity)
    TVS Xfossil - year 2008 Hybrid sports bike

    I do have few more concepts of TVS, which I shall post latter.

    pals Now Google n see what other manufacturers had as their concepts & No offense to anyone

      The thread suddenly got bumped up and it gave me some confusion, Like "Wait this is a concept right, Why people quarreling abt the brakes abs design etc etc. Is this releasing or something" :P

      Its just a concept dude. TVS does not intends to bring it in the near future.

              Phew! USD forks on an Apache? Quiet shocking for an Indian bike. Probably the first Indian bike with this set-up. Looks great! But hope they gave some attention to the vibrations unlike in their previous models. Overall looks crazy!
              Riding is a way of life. Sometimes, it might also be a way of giving life. So Ride safe. In both contexts.

                  Thats a lot of concept bikes. Little correction, found the link over the net where TVS ISOTOPE sends Victory tourer to 2nd in the Concept bike category

                    I guess its usually for weight reduction and better cooling of the alloys! This one seems like a style symbol!
                    Weight reduction?
                    those small holes reduce weight seriously?
                    even if they reduce weight that must be very light but how about dust accumulating?
                    that must be for a reason i guess

                      such awesome looking concepts...sad nothing came to production...tvs should use these radical designs ideas in their new bikes, albeit balancing with practicality...whats the use of having the talent when its not put to use

                        Now thats what I call as a WRAP UP! thanks for the info and pics mate! TVS truly outsmarts any Indian manufacturer till date! But wonder why they are afraid of producing them!
                        A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                        Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

                          Actually the alloys are hollow inside, while manufacturing the sand core is removed through these holes.

                            duh, whats with all u ppl?. 150 cc bikes will similar only , the designs of bikes are very common !. no matter how u change the petrol tank or fairing it will still look similar to some bike. .. so stop with this copying thing

                            and just bcuz FZ started using the big tubless tyre doesnt mean that they own it or something. this was inherited from the super bikes.. n now all the other bikes are slowly switching over to tubeless big tyres. doesn't mean they copy FZ ! about console - This they named it street fighter.. its a lot easier to keep commenting here .go there you will know how hard it is to SATISFY A CUSTOMER !. ppl keep crying bout things no matter what

                              why indian companies su**s is because they copy designs from international brands. in this case tvs guys have simply copied the fz. no wonder why this is not displayed in india. if this is ever displayed in india yamaha will sue tvs(just kidding). just like bajaj sued tvs a few months back on the dts issue. tvs does nothing but copy.
                              superbikes are the biggest blunders on indian roads.

                                Sand core is not removed through those holes.Sand core is hardened sand,it does not flow.Those holes are just to add to the styling of the bike.
