  • Amazing pics Dada.
    Guess i missed lots of things on the first day.
    Kizashi looks like a very neat design and Suzuki is getting better with each passing auto expo in the design department.

    I'm in love with the SV.
    Just keeping my fingers crossed for it to make it to our shores.

    Gixxer 1000 is also going to be launched around this time, though I do not have a price idea on this.
    @Anurag Gixxer being launched is a good news but somehow I feel it would be exciting to see if the Bandit gets launched alongside as none of the manufacturers have dared to launch a full on touring bike in that price category (except Harley).
    I hope suzuki alters the trend here.

      EDIT: I have the business visitors pass with me, at what time will I be allowed to enter the expo?
      Or better, you can park your bike at India Gate parking lot, and take a free shuttle service directly to Pragati Maidan!

        I WISH I could own one of these beauties. I'm sure I will, someday.

              +1 for that!
              A fact -- It takes more love to share the pillion seat, than to share the bed.

                But wouldn't I have to go through Connaught Place to get to India Gate? CP and surrounding areas are filled up with vehicles like hell right now.

                  It all begins with a thumb-start -- Oh, wait, I forgot the kill-switch

                        The RTR with golden alloys is the one with ABS and it's not a simple ABS device like shown in the Bike mag months ago..It is a very complicated device as far as i can tell..It is controlled by computer with some HECU or something like this technology..It has some Rear lift-off protection and better off-roading and braking abilities.Secondly,there is one additional ABS indicator in the bike along with service indicator et al..I feel it'd definitely cost 3-4 grands to install this function!..
                        TVS is also showing a video footage in those big LCDs about how this whole thing works!..It is very informative!

                        About the Pro-kit i asked one of the officials present there at the expo.He said it would boost RTR180's power to 24bhp!..When asked about when it is going to be launched?..He replied,"No official confirmation but it'll be launched very soon"..


                        Hey Shivank....!! You made my Day....!!!

                        I am damn more excited about ABS and Racing Kit....

                        Now, I can say that TVS had something to show in the Expo not like Yamaha...Really Really disappointed By other 2 wheelers...But Atleast I have something new....and that too for my bike...!!!

                        • Well thank TVS not me!
                          Yamaha too had one Gladiator or kinda bike concept..!
                          Honda has Unicorn sports concept..
                          And HH has the same old Hunks and CBZs with flashy new stickers!
                          If you ride like there's no tomorrow...worry not there won't be!

                            If only TVS can themselves put down 24bhp with that 2-valve head at the race track atleast, it will be something astonishing. Let alone them giving it to public with street reliability.
                            Its a joke. Why do you think TVS themselves are not using that 2-valve set-up on their own race bikes?

                            Also that RTR 250 FX has nothing TVS inside.

                            @ashes - The RTRs are winning the races now.
