Yamaha R15 vs Bajaj Pulsar 220 vs Hero Honda Karizma vs TVS Apache RTR

As told by us some days back (SEE), the August issue of Bike India magazine has a track test of the Yamaha YZF-R15 vs its rivals - the Bajaj Pulsar 220, Hero Honda Karizma and the TVS Apache RTR FI

Here is a quick summary of what Bike India had to say

Aspi (Editor)
It gives you tons of confidence. You can do what you want around corners. Stiffer front and rear will make it even faster

Raju (ex-racer)
The R15 will do what you want it to. Bottom and mid range power isnt impressive. Center stand is a bother around the racetrack

Amit
Allows the smoothest entry into and exit from corners. Keep the engine on the boil and you can always be sure that you're faster than the rest

Bunny
Small can be fast too! I had my apprehensions but the R15 surprised with its agility and punch. Definitely smokes others where it matters most

Lap timings of each bike coming up - stay tuned!!
