  • Which Bike to buy?

    Hello everyone as i am a new xbhp member.
    I have been researching on bikes since last 2 years. but i don't have one. previously had cbz xtreme but sold for some financial reasons.
    now i am planning to buy a new bike but m very very confused as which one to buy. Motto: Touring on weekends but it should serve the duty of a good commuter as well.
    Budget 70000-90000.
    Dilemma: Should i wait for new bikes to be released in 2012 but i need one badly because it is one of the reason for me to be happy.

    Please help me out all you Bikers.

      new launch p200ns will exceed your budget,but it is a good proposition.
      second bike comes in my mind is rtr.
      thirdly you have suzuki gs 150 r,which is less priced and very potent machine.
      and the question remains why do i race?
      every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

      #i don't subscribe to co-incidence,either it is the rider or the other moron on the road

      (:)people keeps on saying add spark to life, bajaj got hold of that idea and added an extra spark to bike.

          Just wait for 10-15 odd days and stretch your budget around 8k and get a brand new Pulsar 200NS

            the bikes i mentioned will suit your height.

              Hi,

              If you need a fresh machine go for Pulsar 200NS fresh looks, good handling and refined engine or you need a proven machine and good tourer go with Royal Enfield Std
              Yamaha RX100 (1993)
              Yamaha RX135 (2000)
              Bajaj Pulsar 150 (2004)
              Yamaha FZ-25 (2017)
              TVS N-Torq (2018)

                  Probiking guys have their ratings based upon selling Dukes so you won't have good idea about Pulsars there. Better go to some Bajaj showroom. I expect April 2nd week.

                      Are you sure about this ? Is the price leaked ? Some say that it'll be slightly over a lakh... (very difficult though as then it'll be a little gap between Duke and 200 NS)
                      Originality is the art of hiding your sources...

                        I cannot stretch more than 90k, and i have shortlisted p180 and p220. love 200ns but will have to wait for long. which one among p180 & p220.

                        Please respond guys

                            Not declared so I wrote the word "around".
                            Bajaj is not a company whose details are easily leaked
                            200NS was tested for so long but we never came to know how it would look rt?

                            Price will come up by a formal announcement in April. on-road price depends on location. If you are buying in Pondicherry it would be around 92K(estd.) but in Karnataka it would cross 1Lakh for sure.
                            Even if it comes around 1.05 Lakh how does that come too close to D200? D200 would costs around 1.35 Lakh now and in a month it would cross 1.4 Lakh+ (est) OTR Karnataka. So there should be a healthy ~30-35K difference between the bikes.
                            Waiting is pain
