The goal was to destroy Bajaj Auto assertion that their recently launched the 2009 edition was the Pulsar 220 the fastest production bike in the Indian market.
Bajaj is claiming that their new Pulsar model can touch a top speed 144kmph. That record has been destroyed by Yamaha's modified bike.
Yamaha India's representative had this to say at the launch event: "Bajaj claims lasted only four days.
TVs Motor has also just launched the new version of its Apache RTR. The company said: "There was a gap in the market for fast bikes. And the new Apache was intended to fill the gap. But more than the top speed, in this country, acceleration is more meaningful to buyers. They can at least feel it. "
