    How about having a third option for a better more advanced Fi system albeit at a higher premium! I'm sure that would be a winner...

      There once was a woman who was quite begat.
      She had three babies named Nat, Pat, and Tat.
      She said it was fun in the breeding,
      But found it was hell in the feeding
      When she saw there was no tit for Tat.

        Is an undersquare low revving detuned engine is what they categorise into premium sports segment??? why dont they put premium tourer sticker on it??
        good .... bad ....... awesome ..... dirty.......
        all things are relative words... got it ?
        i mean there is always a base to which you compare which is only a piece of thought in your mind ...... something good may be bad for someone
        comparing to INDIAN bikes..... hh thinks zma is a premium sport bike
        and its one of the top three bikes in INDIA
        a sports commuter what normally we call it ......

        may i know the base you are comparing zma with ?
        imported or foreign bikes ???????
        then according to that.... we will always have mopeds with us even if they read 250 cc
        please consider things according to the place you are talking to

        and by the way,,,,, hh is not fool to classify its bike into one category even when it fulfills both commuting n touring purposes
        and lay man does not understand what tourer means
        but certainly understands sports and relates it to racing


        from time since we are comparing zma , 220 and 15
        but now people have started bashing them completely
        people always want more...... if they get some 250 tomorrow
        then after a year or so they will ask for 500
        things go at their pace .......

        my question to you is that do the general public here deserve a highly tuned engine and not a detuned one ......... i see mad guys even riding splendors stupidly.... forget pulsar and all......
        they fall down.... break the bike and bring it a bad name.... waste their parents money in medical aids........ and they lose some mobility and again to create a nuisance on the streets,,,,,,,,,
        the most stupid thing is that they hurt innocent people ....
        think their father owns the street
        when you will get hit by a modded rx or something
        you will realize that the detuned engine is very good
        imagine the heavy bulky zma with full power hitting someone
        one which has something over 21+ bhp

        i think we should get what we deserve and we get it
        first we should be worthy of taking the responsibility
        we are educated and ride with some sense........
        there are useless holigans there
        even my coll mates drive crazy
        they say maza nahi ata .. ladkiyon jaisa kya chalana
        hell there are no even proper footpaths to walk
        government is not mad to allow detuned engine only here

        so stop bashing poor companies for stupid things like the stickers and all that.... if you dont like it ,,, just remove it
        lets have some patience and give out constructive criticism

        if you dont like the zma engine .... tell whats the flaw in it
        mind telling whats the problem with undersquare low rev engine
        isint it effective ??

        no offense.... just my views
        Hope is a good thing ,
        may be the best of things and
        no good thing ever dies .

          I'm very sorry my friend, Most of the enthusiasts friends over here at xbhp wouldnt be agreeing with your view.
          According to you if India is still not ready for a 20 + bhp machine then I still dunno when it'll ever be, If a maniac is getting killed in splendor by riding it like a moron then nobody is reponsible for his death rather than himself.
          your view is as good as telling "A sharp knife shouldnt be available in the market as many murderers are using it as a weapon and killing innocent people"
          If this continues then India may never become a developed country, in the west when the BHP's are crossing 200's in bikes cant we have a bike here with 10 times less?? with great power comes great responsibility so its upto an individual to control his horses and ride safe, Even a TVS XL in wrong hands will be disastrous.
          So I feel we are very much open to the new P220 even if its generating 21 or more horses!! After all, BHP is never enough

          Way to go Bajaj!!

          • The new 220 could also be a naked bike like the fz.
            it reduces cost, has power , somethin what ppl fall for, fat tyre , naked looks , biggg tank and a carb to pull it off.

            ppl always say oly if fz had more power ,
            I guess bajaj may have done that.

            Just my guess though....
            Somethin new from bajaj.

                  • If it's coming without fairing then it better come with those round head light like Pulsar Classic. I still feel the Classic Pulsar looks the best.
