  • Adding to Payeng's post check the difference between the RTR-Refresh and RTR-Fi. To be frank the 220 uses the same Delphi Fi system as the RTR does. In fact the RTR-Fi makes do without a few sensors that the 220 has, like engine rollover sensor IIRC!

    • Opening up a bit more.

      BAJAJ is Launching the Upgraded 220 (or degraded.. whatever way you take it)... Showroom guys have no info about it.

      Bike is Pulsar 220. 23rd June.

      And its NOT upgraded P200.

              dropping the price by a good 10k means lower quality levels

              and carb is a step 'Ahead' ?

                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.

                  but what about the 180 and 200 ? it will be priced dangerously close to them

                  • I doubt if the P200 will still continue selling. It will only serve to confuse customers. Also its price tag will be dangerously close to P180 on one side and P220 on the other.

                        If this is true then we can surely expect a P250 DTS-Fi along with the Ninja later this year!

                        • 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 ! ?????.......

                            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!

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

                              From variable Bhps to a constant 17.6 Bhp.

                                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.
