    OT: Very bad idea there bro! Mods of those kind are useless. If you really want to feel big and if you have hard cash, say hello to Joel! Else, keep in stock condition. When you have enough money, sell your bike off and go for an upgrade. I would prefer the latter.

        However, they have RTR 250 fx engines which can be de-tuned for streets! Forget RTR 250, TVS Racing has RTR 400 fx also!

        @Abishekkrishna...
        Good luck!
        Yeah they have ready engines for bigger bikes only design and testing is required i think design is done only testing is happening.
        Never upgrade without getting your basics RIGHT.

          AFAIK, they are not TVS engines in those dirt bikes.

            hope then launch the RTR 220 and not 200 and does not give again 1.3 bhp difference between 180 and 200 it should be much more around 2-3 bhp gain should do the trick.. Should be the fastest indian on tracks as well as open roads.. and at last should have atleast good looks and full or semi fairing..

                  The RTR 160 engine in the pic, i bet is in serious state of tune, may be producing 20-24 PS.

                    May be or may be not but TVS Racing is mind blowing!! The bikes are terrific. I was going on and on and on for more than a month. I even made my grandpa to sit for half an hour to watch the photos and videos I shot!! They are almost on par with Yamaha and Honda MX bikes which were out there!!

                        No no no bro! It's RTR 160 with the normal set up, which is for one of the categories in Indian Class. Pramod Joshua, known as Josh, Vishwanath et al race with those! Typical MX bikes with RTR 160 are used by pros among the TVS racers for a different category - Indian Expert Class. The RTR 250 as well as 400 are again used by pros among the racers from TVS(Arvind KP, Santhosh, Pradeep HK et al) under Foreign Class(Above 165cc category). Pashankar racing(Pune) with Honda machines and one dude from Karnataka(Chickmagalur) with real deep pockets who uses Yamaha YZ250, compete for the same.

                          Ppl this may be dissapoint to u

                          On my way for a new bike i visited TVS showroom(booked R15 anyway) When i was arguing to him about supiriourity of R15 over RTR 180 he surprisingly told me that TVS will launch Apache 250 in march, a looong time to wait. I already had in mind abt. asking for apache 2xx launch reality but surprising he told me this without myself asking him. He had no idea about it looks.
                          Well it seems realistic to me nd it's up to u ppl what u think.

                          Also i forgot to add that it will be named Fiero!!!!
