I also think the same they should have continued P200 without too many change phased out 180 and even 200 could have been made more VFM by Bajaj i dont think it is impossible for Bajaj.Originally posted by blisteringintelligence View PostThank you Ken da for the approval, Do you think its a wise move?
IMO they should have discontinued the 180 and improved the 200 or just continues with it, The 200 was a great bike and IMO better than the 180.
But with the new 180 and the new 220 at an attractive price, this was waiting to happen..
Maybe frist time a Bajaj Bike could become legendary collector's item. I personally feel the rawness of 200 is unmatched.Never upgrade without getting your basics RIGHT.

Even showroom personnel told me the same thing. But <90k and >200k there was too much space already both machine dont have any thing similar if and only if the same service center.Originally posted by devilanish View Posti think they make a way for NinjaNever upgrade without getting your basics RIGHT.

Thats the point. The re-sale value will plummet. And there are too many P200s on the road to call your bike exclusive. I would've been proud if I owned a Honda City V-Tec Version2 when they phased it out. The P-200 otherwise has nothing to boast about. Its a good bike, but there are better machines out there. In my case, I dont plan to sell my bike until it has done a lakh, so no worries about re-sale value and I hope the parts are in supply.Originally posted by Aryan View PostUpturn? It's going downwards, sir! Either I sell it off right-away, or risk keeping it and selling it, say, 1 year down the line for a meagre amount!
@Niks: Exclusivity? What exclusivity are we talking about here? There are ENOUGH P200s already on the roads. And with the phasing out of the machine, the re-sale value is going to plummet!
EDIT: Devilanish: Why do you have such a striking resemblance to the xbhp member Devlish? Even the display picture.Last edited by silver_falcon_46; 07-17-2009, 12:41 PM.sigpic

People laughed when I said this
This was ineveitable with the 200 & 220 so close on price & the 180 getting more goodies than the 200, it was quite clear. I would have though loved to see 200 taking 180's place & 180 getting phased out.Originally Posted by Technocrat View Post

Being a Pulsar 200 owner, I am now worried thinking whether the spare parts for P200 are going to be available in the near future or not..
Thinking of selling my bike... But my wish is to own the Ninja (which is not yet launched) as my 3rd bike...

Almost all the parts are in production in the existing range.
I hope so. But look at the forks for example - they dont share the same size with anyone. And forks cannot be replaced with another size just like that, the cone arrangement depends on the fork size and the cone size depends on the chassis assembly. a 31 mm fork has a different size chassis housing for the cone set from lets say a 33m fork. So no chance of replacing there. (Unless you want to replace the chassis) And I'm not too sure about internal parts either. The point is, the engine alone comes with a 5Year unlimited mileage warranty, so hopefully parts should be available for 5 years after the last P200 was sold.sigpic
