  • Just had one question.

    Will the extra weight of 220 F give it an edge of better stability over 220 S while touring ? (forget the projector lamp part, I wouldn't be really be doin a lot of night riding while touring)
    .... and I took the road less traveled!

      I am not sure if the fairing is going to help with stability, but night riding you will see a huge difference in the lighting. the fairing helps in touring as a wind cheater as well. more aerodynamic.

          and boy you forgot to mention one BIG DIFFERENCE and that is the 220 cc engine which makes it one notch above from some various STICKER job companies in terms of POWER DELIVERY.

          • With the fear OTing the thread I would like to post my wish and suggestion to bajaj.

            Please put this engine on your avenger model too and save some bucks and heartache for your self!
            When in doubt...... Gas it!

                    yes i AGREE .

                    i dont know why some owners of other brands always wants to hit on BAJAJ everytime and want to start another brand war. Seriously its irritating at times , why cant these people just ride their motorCYCLES and RESPECT other bikes on road as well .

                    just look at his attitude . Although knowing the bike's [read 220 S] overall CAPABILITY to perform still i dont know what the Heck he wants to prove here.

                    • +100 to that!

                      is this the first time that different versions of same brand looks alike??
                      Have you guys seen a ZX10R and ZX6R.. y going aboard.. the skoda octavia and the octavia vRS in our country?? You can't find a difference apart from the name vRS instead of 'tdi 2.0' but comparing each other.. has a massive power diff!

                      I don't understand what's the big fuzz here.. End of day.. its the performance we need, we got it.. not just a sticker upgrade.. it is just an additional option for us to choose from.. for the one's who doesnt like it.. simply remove it from your list of options thats all.. there are people who are ready to consider it..

                        wait for a higher version to launch....upgrading just 20cc is not gonna make a huge difference. Also the new 220 s version has a problem with one way clutch which is due the timing flaw from the CDI......

                        P.S- I own a P200 too....

                          Timing flaw in CDi affects the new clutch? Can you tell the implications of this problem, on the ride?

                          Also, the source of information, and whether or not its there in P220F or not?

                            it has been rectified way back and the new stock does not have this problem .

                              AFAIK P220S is also a 2 valve engine!!

                              • the day when i had gone to do the booking of my bike that is on 2 of jan 2010 the bike was already standing there. It was a silver color since the camera was not availbale at that time hence i could not click the snap.

                                Did not go for it since I dont like to ride fast. 40 is an average speed I like to maintain.
