      • RTR 180 rips to a top speed of 135

        i already got this bike in my hand a week ago and personally speaking have tested rtr 180 to the core and it touches top speed of 134 on a straight(stock 180)...vibs are there and once u cross 125 km/hr the throttle rate goes down ...the engine sound is more aggressive then 160 and in comparison to p180 its got more power ....pretty surprised!!there is no doubt if i go for pro kit then the DNA racing would become a beast flying @ 140 around...also initially you may make a not that the bike touches 11rpm in the 1st gear with 47km/hr and 2nd gear @11rpm 60+ which is pretty fast ...i think tvs has seriously unleashed a beast go ahead and get it tested to the core

            • @ Spicyracer- you've bought the bike? And if you have within a week you've already killed it? Wow.

              I guess the bike is available nationwide. Coz its come to Kolkata and is already on sale...

                            thanks for the info! 5-6k is definetly worth paying for (thats like the price of a new HID system).

                              There. Happy now? R15's kit costs almost the price of a 100cc bike

                              @ Spicyracer- I hope the bike you rode had completed its running in....
                              You get the point?? :D
