[@incognitohuman1959]

This is very comprehensive. Lovely review of the ride

[@JH09SUMIT]

I lived in Ahmednagar when I was 3 years old and also visited Shiridi. This video was nostalgic af

[@thesportztourer]

I can understand, happy to bring your childhood memories back 😊

[@Rohitpatel-yn6uu]

great video quality I love the way you have separately recorded your voice and added to the video rather than talking while riding which leads to low audio quality so thank you for this amazing video❤

[@thesportztourer]

Thanks +Rohit patel for the appreciation, glad that you liked the audio part 😊 a lot of effort goes in making these type of videos. Ride safe.

[@Rohitpatel-yn6uu]

stay motivated 🔥

[@ajaykaushik2272]

You got 37+ kmpl? Amazing! I get around 30-32 only. I did Bangalore-Mysore-Bangalore a distance of 300km. I started with around 11-11.5ltr fuel. When I came back home, I had already done about 9-10km on reserve i.e fuel level had dropped to below 2ltr. I was riding continuously above 85kmh with top speeds of 120+ kmh. Only in few places, my speed had dropped below 60kmh

[@chiranjeevig3980]

Ajay Kaushik same here bro. Only 30-32 kmpl

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +Ajay Kaushik, I rarely cross 100kmph. 80kmph-90kmph range gives good fuel efficiency if you are smooth with the throttle. Bangalore-Mysore 👍👍 Yes, small tank range is irritating on such long rides. I have faced Bangalore traffic on my RTR 200 & it surely brings down the fuel efficiency figures.

[@ajaykaushik2272]

The Sportztourer In city, my mileage is below 30 sometimes

[@ZR1Gamer]

The RTR 200's sweetspot is 90-100kmhr and above that efficiency goes down due to the lack of 6th gear.If it had a 6th gear,It would have been doing 110-120 kmhr and still be giving 35kmpl.

[@ajaykaushik2272]

ZR1 Gamer The bike stable even at 130+ kmh. This means that riding at 90kmh is just not exciting enough. There's always that tendency to keep pushing the limits. Mileage drops to city levels itself when riding like that

[@ram7944]

Try setting up your GoPro on helmet, so it gives better view of road. Good video anyway

[@thesportztourer]

Thanks a lot Ram Singh 😊 I did change the camera angle in this series: kzbin.info/aero/PLDzB4F3L5AFrSu-Q_kWTkxVU1yZqjM608 Would love to read your comment on that 😊

[@dubomlollen3019]

Can anyone tell me the background music name?

[@monishm2128]

This is cool bro 👍 been seeing your long ride posts on Insta but didn't expect a vlog.. really good ☺ waiting for more 🤘

[@thesportztourer]

Thanks +Monish M 😊 happy to know you enjoyed this one.

[@stock_biker]

Great video mate, mine too returns around 38 kmpl on stock setup. If only I could tour like that.......

[@thesportztourer]

Thanks +aditya tomar for the appreciation 😊 Of course you can tour 👍

[@rajeshh.j91]

You r an inspiration dude

[@therandommela6595]

Lovely bike....i will buy definitely.....untill unless i cant get better than this

[@abd1596]

Bro this is cool. Try doing mileage test on dominar like you did apache

[@thesportztourer]

Sure +Abhirath Dudami, Actually the Dominar was planned to accompany me on this ride. Will do the fuel efficiency test on the Dominar during the next ride 👍

[@nikhilborkar6713]

Please make a video on carburator tunning.

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +nikhil borkar, Check this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJSYk2CtmJdsfc0 Carburetor tuning is a process which needs one to understand the engine & for a new rider/DIY person it is very easy to go wrong. Let's see if I can come up with a detailed video.

[@amuthagautam2045]

Bro ...what's the speed would we go at 1st Gear, 2nd gear 3rd gear 4th and 5 th... Usually I Follow 1st upto 13 kmph 2nd upto 25 kmph 3 Rd 40 kmph 4th 60 kmph 5 th 90 kmph Is this good or not bro....

[@samjohnraj.7597]

someone reply him

[@JH09SUMIT]

It's good bro.. try to shift at around 3.5k RPM

[@asishroul8070]

Plz make longer video

[@thesportztourer]

Thanks Asish for showing interest 😊 Have made longer ride videos here: kzbin.info/aero/PLDzB4F3L5AFrSu-Q_kWTkxVU1yZqjM608

[@pankajyuvraj6173]

masst bro... we'll ride together,,

[@kartikwondo6690]

@The Sportztourer Can i install a 100/80 radial front 150/60 radial rear tyre on rs 200 and does it effect its mileage?

[@NinjaAKM_gamer]

And please upload upcoming videos soon

[@JOINMEINTRAVEL]

Which petrol you would suggest for better power and mileage for rtr 200, !

[@thesportztourer]

Hi, I usually go for the regular petrol at a good petrol pump (try to go with the company own & company operated ones). The compression ratio on the RTR 200 doesn't demand high octane fuel but TVS does recommends certain fuel additives. Here is a video on that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGLRqXx3ecmqf7M

[@JOINMEINTRAVEL]

The Sportztourer thanks bro, what happens if we use it before the mention km. And mine is two weeks old its about 180km run but its drinking petrol like anything, I filled 8.5 litres now its in the reserve . With new bikes is this normal or should I be worried?

[@thesportztourer]

Its a new engine & you are in the run in period. Its common to get low fuel efficiency & issues like heating & false neutrals. Wait for atleast 1500-2000km. If you feel the fuel efficiency is too low then get the carburetor tuned at the first service.

[@JOINMEINTRAVEL]

The Sportztourer thanks bro!👍

[@upendraw573]

Nice video. Liked and subscribed. I have been searching internet a lot to know the cruising speed of RTR 200? Today after watching your video I got to know that it is 100 to 110. Thanks. How good is the suspension on RTR 200. Does it hurt the back in potholes and bumpy/bad roads? How good is the headlight? Please let me know.

[@scRTRvrider]

Upendra W rtr200 3gear sa 110 tak jatiha, 4gear esilly 126 kmh uthaga. In single lane.

[@upendraw573]

sc RTR 200 4v rider thank you dost

[@RISHABH7337]

Bro does your back ache after riding for so long on this bike? And i am cnfused between fz 25 and apache 200 is it advisable to spend 25k more on fz25?

[@veluji3045]

I GOT 36KMPL WHEN I WAS CRUISING BETWEEN 75-105kmph continuously for about 250kms

[@thesportztourer]

Fantastic, 36Kmpl is great for triple digit cruising speeds 👍

[@mohamedawooth93]

Is there any vibration? In my rtr 200 4v I feel vibration when reach 70km speed

[@hastonlobo6077]

Please talk more abt engine performance and refinement..... Enuf of fuel efficiency I guess..... On 200 apache ppl look for engine performance....fuel efficiency is secondary.....

[@thesportztourer]

The fuel efficiency part only comes when I refill. I have mentioned about suspension system, cruising speeds, heat management, hill riding experience, braking etc in the 2nd part (Indore ride), Bangalore ride, Rajasthan ride videos. The last part of the Rajasthan ride will be totally on the performance of the machines. Thanks for giving an useful feedback, do mention anything specific you want to see in the performance part.

[@hastonlobo6077]

The Sportztourer I would love to hear more about engine refinement/performance from tourer point of view and is there a huge difference between carb and fi in terms of refinement...I love this bike but I have rode the previous generation rtrs and the vibration made my palms numb so that exp was horrifying and its a big doubt in my mind I want to clear before I go for it......

[@thesportztourer]

I can totally understand your point, I had the 1st generation RTR 180 for more than 6 years & the vibrations really increased my fatigue on long rides (have seen a lot of India on it). The 200 on other hand is one of the smoothest & refined single cylinder in the market today. Refinement is excellent & the gearbox perfectly matches it. If you cruise at 110+kmph then you will miss the 6th gear otherwise this motorcycle is an all rounder.

[@scRTRvrider]

Kitna km ha up down bolia ple...

[@prabhakarbhatkande]

Are you from Indore?

[@chiranjeevig3980]

Im lately getting 29-30kmpl post 2nd service. 5k done. Have secretly changed to motul 10w40. Somewhat not satisfied with my bike lately due to poor service at Mysore

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +Chiranjeevi G, Even I heard about poor service facilities at some places. 29kmpl seems to be low, do you ride in traffic?

[@ZR1Gamer]

29KMPL sounds a bit low.Here are somethings I can think of - Clean Air Filter,Clean and retune Carburettor,Clean,Re-lubricate and tighten your chain,Check both brakes if they are running the discs unnecessarily. I am Pretty sure that the SVC messed up the Carburettor for the most part.Very Incompetent people.

[@vardhanyaday]

where are you staying

[@ride2rise610]

hi bro. can we increase the height of rtr 200 handle bar. so can we use risers of what type

[@thesportztourer]

Can be converted into single piece bar handle. The one from the new RTR 160 can be fitted should increase the height around 1inch (estimated). If it is raised more like in the Enfields then the wiring (for switches), cable, hose will need to be replaced.

[@manuraj2997]

Long ride any performance lag in rtr200? How comfortable for long ride?... engine heating for 100kelmeter one straight struch? Which one is good rtr200 vs duke200

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +manu raj, The 200 is comfortable than the RTR 160/180. No performance lag or over heating issues. I have ridden this bike for more than 300 km at a stretch during my Bangalore ride with no issues. The Duke 200 is more powerful & performs better. Comfort wise the RTR 200 is better than the Duke. Check out the part 2 of this video it should help you with your doubts. Ride safe.

[@manuraj2997]

The Sportztourer thanks bro

[@WeekendRiders]

is the bike worth buying in 2017? how many kilometres do u ride at a stretch ? #sportszonetourer

[@ZR1Gamer]

Weekend Riders Yes,100% worth.But if touring is your main purpose,Check out the Avenger,Pulsar 220F and Avenger 220.

[@WeekendRiders]

how many kilometres do we should ride at a stretch on a 220cc bike? plz suggest

[@ZR1Gamer]

Weekend Riders 4-6 hours at a constant 100-110kmhr.Take rest after that.

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +Weekend Riders, Generally the optimum cruising speed for most of the motorcycle are around 70 percent of the red line rpm. If you ride a 220cc bike at around 90kmph then taking breaks every 2 hours or around 80-100km is beneficial for both the motorcycle & rider. Assuming you ride a Bajaj 220cc bike, you will be happy to know Bajaj test these engines (During R&D) at high RPMs continuously for more than 12 hours.

[@WeekendRiders]

i m currenly riding a LS135. i m also planning to take up a 200 cc bike.plz suggest 1.For cruising...

[@NinjaAKM_gamer]

Bhai , How much Kilometre should i complete on my rtr200 before going a 1000km long ride ?

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +ashish yadav, Complete the run in period, let the engine settle down after 1st service so that you can enjoy the ride without worrying. Ideally after 1500-2000km should be fine but I couldn't control & started touring on my 180 & 200 right after the 1st service 😀

[@ZR1Gamer]

The Sportztourer Actually I think that touring on a brand new bike with a speed under 60-70kmhr is kind of good,as the speed is constant and it causes an even wear and proper engine run-in rather than say,in Traffic with variying speeds and Engine RPM.

[@thesportztourer]

Yes +ZR1 Gamer, even I did that. Only thing that bothers me is that most of the problems/niggles/small issues faced on bikes are during the initial stage. Small problems like chain adjustment, clutch set up, run in of the brake pads, carburetor adjustments are sorted after the 1st service. So I absolutely agree with you on following the run in process on the highway 👍 But I would be a bit paranoid taking a brand new bike on a 1000km endurance ride. Ride safe.

[@dhruvasonawane5417]

Which mobile holder do you use? And is it completely waterproof?

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +Dhruva Sonawane, I am using the mobile holder from.treknride which is exactly like the one from Rynox link: amzn.to/2iQ652q Yes, it is water and dust proof. You can find it's review video on this channel.

[@rupeshparihar6160]

Hii brother im in confusion .. likes Apache in 180 ABS And 2nd option NS200 What is the best please suggest Me brother

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +Rupesh Parihar, What will be the use? City/highway? Long rides/commute?

[@rupeshparihar6160]

The Sportztourer mostly in city

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +Rupesh Parihar, I had a RTR 180 for close to 7 years before the 200 & it's a hoot to ride in the city. The initial power & punch on the 180 is very enjoyable in the city & the gearing is fantastic for city ride. If you ask for an alternative the the Duke 200 will be my pick for city ride (it misses out on the ABS). All the best with the decision making 👍

[@debashishroy8938]

What was your avreage speed

[@thesportztourer]

Hi +Debashish Roy, Depending upon the road conditions & breaks my average speed varied from 35kmph to 65kmph. On good roads I usually maintain 80-90kmph speeds.

[@debashishroy8938]
