  • Gonna book a bike tomorrow ! Dazzler VS CB Unicorn

    Hi folks,
    I am in a real hurry ! Tomorrow i am gonna book a honda bike . But i am really confused between CB Unicorn and Dazzler. I took a test drive of dazzler today ! It was good. The main conditions i am looking for is

    1. Good look
    2. My MOM(she is quite big) must be able to sit comfortably
    3. Good mileage

    I heard from my friends the cowl and other parts of the dazzler will not be stable as time progresses. For instance if i put down the bike .. What will happen to bike?? I am specifically asking this coz honda spares are costly!

    Another thing which bothers me is half chain guard ! Will it pose a problem for my mom and maintenance >?

    Awaiting reply ! I am running outta time

    Bike Choice Approved

    I personally would say go for "newer" tech, though apparently there is not "much" difference in tech in the two!
    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

      go for the dazzler & as ken told the new tech would be better. The open chain cover would make the chain maintanence easier but it would increase the maintanence. Other than this no other problems are there.

                        Why don't you do a test ride, take your mom along. Looks are subjective so if you like it get it. If I'm not wrong the Dazzler is also a bit shorter/smaller so pillion rider would be a bit more comfortable while getting on and off, especially ladies who sit side ways.

                          Hey but the Dazzler still does not have a saree guard..... and a leg guard.......
                          I feel that CB Unicorn is a better bike in terms of looks and maintenance ..... It looks more manly..... And defined.

                            It does have Saree Gaurd and Crash Gaurd, just that it being a new bike, it won't be in stock at many places.

                            The looks of any bike are subjective.

                            How would CB Unicorn better in maintenance ?

                              dazzler and CB Unicorn are more or less same technically...
                              its the looks which makes one think betn the 2..
                              since dazzler is new every biker wud suggest to go for it..
                              i hav almost read every critic say that go for dazzler for its "new"
                              so its totally comes down to looks

                              Maintenance apart frm chain cleaning i dont see any other issue...rainy season i doubt its mug-guard performance thats all..
