Bajaj has got a reliability problem I do agree but when I asked the same question here someone answered me that it's not that bad at least you can live with it trust me.between p135 and p150 I would suggest you to go for p150 since the waiting period for p135 is about 2months if you can wait then it's good, also there are some issues with p135 the rear suspension to be specific check out ownership thread for more info, on the other hand p150 is there since years if you want exclusivity try p180 it can return upto 45kmpl if ridden well

Coming to yamaha, Looks,reliability are there but mileage and service suck big time..you can check out fz16/s or fazer it will surely attract you but only go with these if you have good yamaha service centre there in your place

Honda,refinement,reliability,mileage are there but Unicorn is very old but trust me you can't find any better replacement under this price tag

lastly apache, a very good bike but riding posture is bit-sporty and ya vives are there!!do test ride b4 u select.

can't comment on GS150R

well I guess I have written a lot, but at d end I want to tell you that Go for the one that you want to go.


hi sir,
thank u so much 4 a warm welcome................


i hav a question............... can i put a fat rear tyre (just bigger from current )on HH hunk or apache fi, if yes how much i hav to compromise on the mileage, also how about the tvs engine reliability......

You can anyday but changing the stock tyre size is not always recommended, you may loose a bit of handling and ya mileage will drop for sure may be about 3-5kmpl..Though u can try one size bigger but something more bigger than that, is not at all good according to me.

HAPPY BUYING

Good to hear that u r going for fz-s nice bike and if you run it well in run-in period it can satisfy your mileage need.

I own a fz16 and the engine is refined.

My word is buy p180 eyes closed...
1)It fits into the budget..
2)No great vibrations as in Pee220
3)Returns u atleast 45kmpl
4)The UG4 pulsars are refined than their previous siblings
5)u have a feeling of owning a big bike.
6)looks..it looks like macho with the look borrowed from old 200

The bike i ride 220 dtsi
