    You need to give more information about your requirements if you expect meaningful replies.

      If this is your first bike and you're completely new to motorcycling I'd advise you to wait a bit and go through all the ownership threads out here. Gain some knowledge about the respective bikes and their relative strengths and drawbacks and then make your decision. Also, provide some more info regarding your height,experience,proclivity towards some aspects;viz comfort,outright power or relaxed riding etc.

        I would suggest fz or p200, Better road grip, balanced and good power delivery. CBR and all upper range bikes are heavy and are less fuel efficient. as mentioned you need a bike for commuting these two are the best or else go for KTM Duke 200.

          60km is quite a long commute, if you are not worried about spending money for petrol and higher maintenance, go for cbr 250 else pick the 200ns

            Kindly Note : The following review is from an unbiased personal point of view and I don't want any fan boys trying to pick up a fight based on which is better. I am quite familiar with both the bikes and hence my 2 cents to this matter:

            Pulsar 200NS


            Pros

            • Best looking pulsar yet
            • Good ergonomics, very comfortable to ride.
            • Great handling bike and gives you more confidence to tackle corners
            • Good fuel efficiency - gives out about 55 kmpl
            • Best braking, second to none.
            • Triple spark for precise fuel combustion which is good.

            Cons

            • Ride height is a bit high but not unmanageable.
            • Rattling parts on some models.
            • Skinny rear tire with an ugly mudguard.
            • Front stock numberplate mount can damage the front mud guard if the bike falls in a gutter but not a big deal since it can be replaced with stickers or so.

            Honda CBR 250

            Pros

            • Makes a great touring bike, easy on the a**.
            • Extremely comfortable seats and seating position even for the pillion.
            • Good torque layout for a 250 single.
            • Good handling, esp with those huge 140's at the rear which is sexy to look at and does perform well enough.
            • Comes with ABS (optional)
            • Easy on the pocket, making it the most affordable quarter liter contender in the market.

            Cons

            • Not the most attractive bike of the lot
            • Used to have certain quality issues but Honda seems to have rectified them, not sure.
            • Cheap mirrors. Definitely unpleasant to look through.

              Simple. If you do a lot of highways then the cbr eyes closed. If do a lot of commuting with traffic then the pulsar.

                Go by NS200.. It is much better bike with comfort and maintenance. riding position very friendly.. Once you come to know about the bike than this bike can be easily ridable in traffic as well with right gears at right place... It's riding position makes it more riding friendly. Bajaj wide service network and low cost will keep you happy. Now bajaj has come away ahead than what it use to be earlier.

                CBR is a good bike but it is best on highway. in traffic where will you use the extra power.? extra money use it for riding apparels or accesories etc...

                  Buy Pulsar 200NS if you want a fuel efficient naked sports bike or buy CBR 250R if you want a full firring sports tourer

                      Hi Dude..
                      Better to go CBR 250... Becoz it has more powerful Japanese Technology, excellent acceleration, comfort, than 200NS.. i am not saying that NS is bad.. Take a test drive and select which gives you more satisfaction
