About the P220 DTSi TV Ad..




The P220 DTSi is the 'Fastest Indian' Bike.. be it in Colombia, Mexico or Indonesia.

Simple

Ad don't look gud/impressive...

[ken cool]

Ad don't look gud/impressive...

I agree. I was not impressed at all either!

[Technocrat]

Yeah seemed more like he did a "Scotty beam me up" than using the P220

[satan69in]

WHAT!? What if bajaj release perfo kit??
25bhp-160+kmph ???
STOCK IS STOCK!
we shouldn compare STOCK AND MODD!! rite??

hehe.......all i can say is its kinda silly to pay an xtra 60k and mod a bike wer u cant use on streets and ur bike gets its parts worn off quickly

I doubt the kitter R15 will reach 150kmph true speed .

Yamaha reps are only showing how foolish they are to compare a production bike with a Modded one .
A Race RTR has a 0-100 in 7 secs with a true top speed of 140 hp ,no r15 can match it .

Race RTR? are you mentioning about the bikes which are sponsored by team TVS or is it any special edition which are only meant for racetracks?

Ya also, If I own a R-15 and need more performance I surely won't go for that expensive kit and instead hand it over to Joel to do his research on it just personal opinion

About P220 ad I think what Payeng said is right... It might mean "The Fastest Indian" bike anywhere around the world... but in no way I will support that ad... Was a bit on the lousy side... expected more from the likes of P200 ads or pulsarmania( I think the best ever motorcycle ad in India )

@vivek-Congrats.I was also surprised to see your decision but you explained it pretty well.

Thanks MG. I myself am surpirsed with my decision but its definately the right decision. I hopefully plan to ride the bike to Leh this Sep.

+1 to that

They just emphasized on the tag line i.e. "The Fastest Indian". I was expecting the ad to be more interesting showing some stunts and speedo reads of 140+ kmph.

It was shown at the Apache racing experience that was held some time back .

Well said bro.. and think about the price 1.07lacs+60k=1.67lacs approx..
we can own two P220's with that money..

i just liked the background score.

I too liked the background score..

can anyone decipher its lyrics..?? All I can make out is "I am the Man"

[ravi@17bhp]

Hey am good ... as u know, was never a fan of the pulsars, but this one got me. Didnt want a zma again & R-15's cost is a bit too steep compared to wat i get. I wanted a good touring bike & this is the only one that could be a worthy zma replacement. Its a real bang for the buck & Ill surely get the best outta it Will be back with pics once i get my ride....Cheers Vivek.

Congratulations!! A very good choice.

[Rajat Bhanti]

Hey two days back i got a test ride of this bike and now its better in handling in corners thats for sure, but in acceleration department i didnt felt the difference (my coz of the riding it in city) and hey its way cheaper than other premium bikes costing OTR 76000 INR in Kanpur (its the best premium bike availbale in india)

[Rajat Bhanti]

And hey there is an article in BSM (Motoring) in which they were saying that its handling is far better than previous bike (coz of the use of soft compound tyre MRF Zappers just like in R15). And hey they also have mentioned YZF R15 in which they were comparing it with the P220 in which they were saying that they had a drag btw P220 n YZF R15 n results is better too now P220 accelerate even with the more authority n creates more gap so P220 now beats YZF R15 in top speed section too n handles same as the Yamaha does.
