P220 vs CL350. Honestly speaking, 220 wins on all counts except perhaps the thump and feel of riding a iconic, great looking motorcycle. The CL350 in stock form, is not all that comfortable doing long distances.

Cheers,

Jay

But as I said earlier the bullet has its own charm.

I'm not suggesting you buy the 220, just trying to point out was I consider to be the pros and cons.

End of the days this is going to be your bike for a few years, buy the one that makes you feel good about owning it. The feel good factor that a bike gives you in my opinion out weighs bhp's and features.
I'd like to own a bullet for sure and I've also got an instant delivery deal...

I agree, I have the same confusion as I was indecisive when I rode both the bikes simultaneously....even within the city C350 is a step down from Electra....but still not very clear about the handling......

Check my thread for more info...

Thanks a bunch....I will get my friend in delhi to call them and see if we can work out something......I guess it will be easier to get hold of either silver or Black and I am going in for the electra.
