The main result of this paper is the following theorem. If \(n \geq 3\) is odd, then \({\text{{as}}_\infty(RP_n)} \geq {\text{{as}}_\infty(R_n)}\), where \(RP_n (R_n)\) denotes the class of (regular) Reuleaux polygons of order \(n\) and \({\text{{as}}_\infty(\cdot)}\) denotes the Minkowski measure of asymmetry for convex bodies.
