  • On my way back from Chennai (heading towards Bangalore), I saw a couple of White RTRs with temp registration. The RTR logo was written in a different colour (seemed to have a red outline). It had the 180 sticker. I guess it was the RTR 180 with ABS.

        Like some TVS official said in an interview last year(its posted somewhere in xbhp), they will release the bigger RTRs when the market is ready!? Don't know what their idea of the "right time to release" is. They seem to be VERY contemplative, like a zen monk

        • 2011 Yamaha R15 to cost Rs 10,000 cheaper?

          • Good thing if the above news is true.That would make R15's price a bit more realistic and provide more value to the consumer.

                • the new R15 story is getting more confusing by the day...earlier posts speculated a bigger heart for the new bike....and now we have claims of yamaha cutting the price by 10k...very contradictory

                      • Well, just a year ago, when Auto Expo was around many of us Including "me" talked to "someone" in "Yamaha."
                        Those "someone's" said that surely a New Yammy R15 is in the pipeline and would be out at Auto Expo. Alas! All we got was a limited colour scheme. So this time no bait's on the "new speculated" R15.

                            I would advice you to wait, the next pulsars are gonna have a real engine and chasis upgrade, I am sure you wont regret the wait.

                              Thats true...but how long will you have to wait is the question...waiting will be both easy and meaningful if you know the release is definite and it is in a certain time, 2 or 5 or 7mths or whatever...people wait for 10 mths for an RE C5, but they know for sure they will have it....but in this case, the wait will just be just frustrating and baseless, cos you don't know if or when it will happen. The bike may come in a week or may take a year...nothing is confirmed. Waiting this way sucksss..and the sad part is all this waiting drains out the enthusiasm of buying, and also takes away the biking experience which one would have had during this time...as somebody in xbhp said, "don't let the motorcycle interfere with motorcycling"....easier said than done but nevertheless, it has a point

                              • Totally agree with you Aravind...
                                i've already been waiting since december for my bike and i know its hard...
                                only if i know release date and the specific upgrades info, i'll wait otherwise i will get what's available....
