What a colour! Somebody at TVS has a big fascination towards these gold wheels, with wierd body colours for the vehicle. Chocolate gold edition as a name too!

And now Dhoni will be made to dance in dhoti to try and sell this special edition.

What is new in this apart from gawdy color option. Ridiculous effort by TVS. TVS should concentrate on getting the RTR 200 up to speed, instead we get this crap.

Ghastly!

What next... Candy pink and Lemon yellow?

What happened to TVS? They are the ones who made the Apache, Scooty and Wego!

Yuck! Really a dumb effort by TVS. They are the ones who brought Matte Blue Apache. The RTR 200 4V will be offered in matte shades, so why not a Matte shade for this one as well?

Chocolate gold edition itself is so for a name. Actually if the wheels are painted back to black, half of the looks problem would be solved.

I think this is TVS' copy of Yamaha midnight editions. The FZ and R15 looked droolworthy in the black-gold avatar. But TVS, duh!

I think all the little girls will now go "Papa, papa, let us by that chocolate flavour bike na, puhleeeese?"!!

TVS seems really desperate and not thinking straight. The designer seems to be inspired by the golden chariots from Indian mythology!

I think TVS should have named this the Star City Sanskar Edition and launched it on Akshaya Tritiya!

Say whatever you want about that colour but word on the streets is that people are loving those golden wheels and bright colours especially this segment that the star caters to. So, why not?

I am little disappointed! They did not update the Engine + Gearbox. A Parrot Green paintjob on Engine and Gearbox would have worked wonders IMO
Now waiting for another Big Update by Hero Splendor to rival this fierce competition. How about "All New Splendor" in Latte + Toffee Twin Tone Edition
