Digital twin spark Ignition
DTSI - digital twin spark ignition technology. We know that in petrol engine we require spark plugs to initiate ignition of A/F mixture. In DTSI instead of one sparkplug we have two plugs. More over when these sparkplugs should initiate the spark is determined by microcomputers. In India it was Bajaj who are having patents for their 150-220CC bikes.

The major benefits of this technology were : a) The fuel efficiency got drastically improved b) The power weight ratio improved

Bajaj in news
The 'bigger and sportier' brands, Discover and Pulsar now account for ~66% of Bajaj Auto's two-wheeler volumes, with Pulsar recording average volumes of 75,000 per month and Discover averaging 135,000 units per month. The company plans to launch Boxer 150cc in the domestic market in August 2011, targeting the rural market. The product is likely to be priced at ~INR40,000. The success of Boxer 150cc would be critical for Bajaj Auto to penetrate rural markets and could be a key growth driver. Bajaj Auto is reportedly working on a plan to launch a new 250cc variant of their Pulsar 08/08/11 49 brand later this year.

RTR Technology

Racing Throttle Response : When the accelerator pedal pressed suddenly, how fast power output of engine increases implies the throttle response of that vehicle Overtaking After following a vehicle or going side by side, there is a need for sudden increase in power to execute a successful overtaking. This is why throttle response plays a crucial role in racing. Coming out of a corner While entering a corner, brake is applied or at least power is reduced. As soon as the corner is passed, the car should be accelerated quickly. Better throttle response gives a sudden surge in power. Driving pleasure Throttle response plays a major role in driving pleasure, as this 08/08/11 gives the driver more control over the vehicle's acceleration.59

Conclusion
Bike market in India is still concentrated on the smaller fuel efficient bikes. Quite recently with the increase in purchasing power the demand for powerful bikes among youth is increasing. Demand for bikes for enjoyment purpose is increasing (promotions like adventure sports and reality shows are working). Still rural market needs to be immersed and activated.
