Am going on a test ride today. Will let you know my personal experience later.

Update: Went on a test ride. Didn't get proper chance to use the power to the maximum. Well, I am comfortable with the seating position. The pickup was awesome. The power band in 3rd and 4th gear was not too noticeable. Rear disk brake was okay. Was not too effective. The main thing was that the bike had only 15 kms on the odo. I've decided to buy Pulsar 220S. I guess this decision is finalized to 99.99%

Here are my personal opinions why I chose Pulsar 220S.

Awesome pickup
VFM - Karizma R costs Rs 83950 OTR while Pulsar 220S costs me Rs79950
The pillion riding position and suspension was better
The engine is refined from other siblings
I liked the riding position

Do have some minor factors. However, thanks everyone for the feedback.
