            Nope Just the "*beep* word" for the competition

            I feel, it was just because Zma has an 'R'

            @Dual Disc

            Even the earlier 220 was faired right?
            When everything comes ur way, u r in the wrong way ;)

              The PBK guys in AMD have no clue what it's supposed to be, more so since the other side is it's exact mirror image.

                  Its clear from the left and right side of the bike that the sticker is NOT "F"..
                  Its just a styling element.

                      Yes, it s not "F".It s just a design element (sticker) as Payeng said.

                      • Glad to have this thread back in action and that too having these much responses within a short span of time..
                        I am keen to know more about this bike..
                        From BSM's article it is evident that new 220 uses softer compund for tyres like r15 and stiffer suspension to obtain terrific handling.. But does anybody have any info about the frame/ chassis? Is it the same good old one or any improvements in it?

                        Comment


                        • @Nio: The chassis is the same as it was before: double cradle downtube type, although if any 'modifications' has gone into the chassis, that I am unsure of.
                          :)

                            • This soft compound thing on tyres... is it also of many types? What I with my limited knowledge seemed to understand that they necessarily have the patterns like we see on R15 tyres but here I see P220 maintaining the old tyre pattern. Any idea if this soft rubber thing is as good as one on R15? Ofcourse with so much reduction in price I was not even hoping for soft rubber
