Those are great Figures Neil!
But still my vote goes to Yamaha R15 :)
Being 150 cc & brilliantly engineered, this competes closely with the so called fastest indian.
Go Yamaha! Lot to conquer!
RTR 180 anyday.
180cc, 2 valves per cylinder, air cooled, 12k rpm rev monster.
R15.
150cc, 4 valves per cylinder, liquid cooled, fuel injected, ecm controlled.
even after all this gadgetery and a 30k price increase, RTR equals R15, if not better.
Think about it.
On the track too, gives unbeliavavble comp to r15s.
In city, no way u can go ahead.
And something optimistic for RTR owners[ not so much for r15 or even r1 owners]

Manan going in the hills and going round the corners on his RTR180. I on my R1 could NOT keep up with him in the hills, the route to Shimla, Himachal, India. What a difference from a year ago when Manan could not lean at all to now when no one can catch up with him on any given bike!
This was KEN on R1. and before you dismiss him as just any biker, he is a first class maniac, and xbhp moderator.
