    What's wrong in discussing anyway, this is a NOT a news site, it's a discussion board for all bike enthusiasts. If we lock up all threads on hint of brand wars then there won't be much activity on the forum. No point in having a READ through forum, is there?

    The possibilities of what could have been done or on what it could have been done are endless. The Honda can do it.And the Bajaj did it.
    And from what little I know and felt,the P180 is more comfortable than the ZMA or the P220.

    The loss of Fi surely will reduce the Mileage. Wonder, whether bajaj will transfer the peak torque to lower middle rpm

    I should have said the cam-chain tensioner issues with the newer karizmas are far less. I do not see many people reporting about this problem with Zma-R. Still, average life of karizma's cam-chain tensioner is around 45k.
    Oh ok! Even I thought that issue had been sorted out when my buddies bought the bike. But once they had this issue, they were like this to me.....

    If I'm not wrong, the cam tensioner for the ZMA and P220 come from the same manufacturer but there is a 1500 bux difference in cost! Ofc the one being supplied to Bajaj 'might' be of a inferior quality and thus the cost diff.

    Coming to the 45K life, I wonder what is the life of the P220 one then? I got another 7K kms to 45K...lets see!

    man ! 70k ex sh is awosum price for a 220cc with a bit more power ! but i still believe in technology ! but may be its a drastic measure to over throw yam's r15 sales ! hope this thing works ! i can garuntee that this is another strategy by bajaj to compete with yamaha flag ship bike ! but dont you guys agree that instead of hedging top speed by 15kmph they should include other features from the r15 ?? like mono shock delta frame etc etc ! u get the point and im sure for that price ! the bike will at the most have all the features of the existing 220 offcourse not the engine !

    want your comments ! ?????.......

    If you read thru this thread you will know that eliminating only the FI can decrease the price by 10k.. Quality levels does not come into question.
