          I have the 220 myself but frankly..... u won't be able to handle the beast at 16yrs i think. If u want to wait... u just might get the new karizma-ZMR next month. And yeah..... try not to go for fully covered bikes like R15 cuz in case you fall - which i hope u don't - you will end up spending a lot on repairs.

            don't worry about handling the beast, i know i can.
            If r15 is easy, p220 is not a big deal.

              Anybody handling P220 will feel easy handling R15
              Sahaj I would suggest for R15 or HH ZMR
              R15 is good for stunting also

                  Divided opinions.
                  Any answer that states reliability of the bike for the upcoming time?
                  any opinion so that i can blindfoldedly go for that bike?

                      okay, will give it a try.
                      pro biking people even don't give a test ride of the new 9220
                      just the dyno of the p220 dts fi which only goes up to 110 on it.

                        Well..... its upon you. Ride both the 220 and RTR180 and then decide. Otherwise wait for two months (ZMR should be launched in this period)

                              i have a strong feeling that age shouldnt be the deciding factor...i have seen few guys aged above 27 and dont have the maturity to even ride a bicycle...so i feel its very good if u start riding at a young age but at the same time u should be even more responsible because if anything goes wrong even if u havent done the mistake u will be blamed and worst case booked....

                              so start riding learn all the techniques,tips and tricks of riding..i wish u be a better rider than guys who are riding legally and show them even a 16yr kid can ride responsibly and better....

                              go for rtr 160/180 its not so huge and the power delivery is very good...my bro has a karizma,friend has a p220 and have ridden both nothing comes close to the fun of riding an rtr...its just awesome...take a test ride and decide...

                              happy biking..

                                Thank you Vams and pradeep.
                                Vams----brother, I've had hell a lot of crashes....about 10 and I am a mature rider, these 6 years have given me experience and i can prove my riding skills any day
                                i drive very safe, no show off and things, I've done that very much, and now I am more experienced. .
                                no brother you spoke very correct
                                Pradeep- yeah sure will give it a try, but i want to go for biggies. i know i can handle and maintain it because i've rode them and i think i am capable of em'
