            in fact, the RTR makes life tough for the P200 in a drag!

            well, let Joel confirm it

              even if bajaj has patent but rtr is very much better than the pulsars and RTR can beat any bike in its segment.
              n wat about patent infringement by Royal Enfield on twin spark technology.

                Well, in a drag, the rider matters the most, not the ride

                Plus the condition of both bikes that were dragged.

                And i would like to add, Winning a drag race doesnt make a bike better or worser, there are many other aspects to a bike rather than dragging

                      AFAIK no HH or HMSI bike has got a resonator. So they're spared the Bajaj timepass game.

                      Be it a midship muffler or a end-ship muffler, the FZ does have a resonator and like KP said, a big one at that
                      So we might see Bajaj dragging YMIL to the courts sometime soon.
                      I wonder if Rajiv Bajaj's been seeing too much of the TV show 'Boston Legal' nowadays
                      I'm normally not a praying man, but if you're up there, please save me Superman.

                        What the hell? Bajaj is now well on their road to become a big time looser. The company which was showing lots of promise when they came out with Pulsar suddenly looks like a lost clause what with all these stupid acts of theirs. They have enough tasks on hand to save their reputation and a$$ but all they seem to care about these days is defending some stupid replications of brilliant technologies which were never their's in first place. Very recently an ad had be laughing big time by the line "from the world leaders in twin spark technology". I just hope Bajaj does not come out with some square tyre technology tomorrow and then get it patented too.

                              Whoa..!! Lets not make this a thread meant for brand war..


                              By the way even TVS had applied for Patent for its "Economy - Power" mode indicator lights and for the "Lockable Storage Compartment" on the Flame

                              In the end its all Business..

                                I have a P-200.
                                In no way can a RTR compete in straightline.

                                I have done drags with the RTR, RTR refresh and RTR-FI. Also a modded FI(it had some loud silencer)

                                In the first 2 gears both bikes are nearly same all the way to the rev-limit(well atleast I went upto 9K). From 3rd gear the P200 pulls away, and thereafter cannot be overtaken.

                                Not to flame and all, but just my personal experience.
