If you can handle the p220 and drive it around, rather than letting it drive you around, go for it and if you are a hooligan who wants to live a little longer apache abs is the answer. Just my personal opinion but Apache 180 is so much fun.
P.S. - This comes from an R15 owner
EDIT : OOOps didnt see the last two pages, congoz on your choice. Happy riding !Last edited by abhi_underdog; 05-10-2011, 11:32 PM.sigpic

Congrats for the latest ownership ,The RTR . I didnt got to test an ABS yet of an ridden bike . A lot depends on that , I always wanted to have ABS on P220 , it will be an great tool in combination of speed on which P220 can do highways ."BiKiNg in INDIA is like JOGGING in IRAQ ,something may HIT YOU"

Will that count for judging if 220 is comfortable for the rider ( I am not including Pillion rider here )? Because I did both these rides and after completing these rides went straight for work on the same bike. I won't lie but It was little uncomfortable, but not because of the Pulsar 220 rather because of the total distance. And I ride something around 20 KMs 5 days a week for my work without any issues afterwards.Originally posted by Satyamzma View Post
By the way, I have nothing against Apache. I drove along with an Apache 180 RTR guy once while I was coming to Chennai from Bangalore. And man, was that fun? I didn't even feel the distance between the 2 place. and I think we both were well above 125 KMPH minimum, most of the times. What i felt in the ride was that he was getting more balance at the corners and I was on a more powerful machine. I would vow for Apache RTR 180 any given day after that day.A true rider never gets tired and never gives up

Apache RTR 180 or Pulsar 220
Hey guys i am 19 and currently have a Pulsar UG3 and looking for a new bike. Due to my budget, i have shortlisted these two bikes. First off, i wanna tell you guys that I absolutely love riding R15 but i can't buy it because of the budget constraints and i would like an experience close to what it provides. Secondly, i haven't actually driven any of these two bikes. All my driving would be in the city with just about 30-40 kms per day.
I am a bit leaning towards the Apache right now.
Right now this is what i think:
Pulsar 220:
+ faster in a straight line
- mileage's really low
Apache 180:
+ good riding position, excellent flickability
- looks, vibrations (?)
Also please tell if driving the Apache really feels like the R15. And also tell me about the vibrations. Any other things?
Thanks.Comment
