A mention of your usage of the bike will help a bit...the twister is stylish for sure and returns good fuel eco too...P135 is a great option,do hv a td of it...About the gladi and SZ,I'm sure P135 betters it to some extent though the latter is yet to be released

Unhappy

I checked out pulsar 135ls.. but dint like it as pulsars r common thesedays.. daily usage of my bike would be around 12kms within the city.. so bike with initial picup would be great.. im really confused..

For budget below 60k, You can also check CBF Stunner. Saw the twister 2 days back in Chennai.Design and the paint finish was very good, The bikes which you have mentioned are good and reliable .Test ride each vehicle then pick the bike which is close to your heart, you will never regret.

Twister will give good mileage compared to other bikes(i think)...
SZ is not released yet. so can't comment.

About Gladiator SS-my roommate owns one and i would say it is the very best in it's class... the bike really nice power upto 80kmhr... 60-80kmhr range it is as good as a 150cc bike(which i am comparing with my FZ16)... its an awesome bike with good looks.

The downside of the bike is its mileage, coz my friend is getting 45-50... but mind you he's a guy who rides his Gladi ALWAYS above 70/75... may be that's the reason...

if you are mileage conscious i better say stick onto the Twister itself...

My opinion is also consider the Stunner too, a very good bike...

Is there any confirmed news of Yamaha SZ coming in the market? Because in AutoExpo, wasn't it shown as a concept?
