Default Help for first bike - gift for myself on my birthday

Hi I am looking for my first bike in 150cc segment
Need looks and also comfort.Mostly will be riding in hyderabad city roads.
Need pillion comfort also.This is my first bike so need good handling.
As I am still in my youth I definitely need good looks.
My height is 5'9''+ and weight 65 kg
I am mostly going to buy Unicorn Dazzler but can you people guide me why I should look for other bikes.
Need the bike by july 13 at any cost cause its my birthday.want to give myself a good gift.

PS:I was having dilemma over CBZ-X or Apache RTR 160 until dazzler was launched

Post Go for the Dazzler!

I say go for the Dazzler. Basically it is the Unicorn with some changes.

The RTR is a good bike if you want to ride hard but the vibrations are sometimes, on the higher side. It is also not so good for the pillion as the suspension is a bit on the harder side.

The CBZ shares it engine with the Unicorn but it does not have the mono-suspension which definitely affects the handling positively.

Cheers!

I think it should just be fine. Try having a test ride and you'll come to know.

I don't think FZ16 suits me as it is lesser in height and as well does not give pillion comfort and ofcourse FE is too bad for FZ 16... though I agree it looks more sportier than others

I think the waiting period is 2 months all over India.You need to check your local dealer to confirm the same.

If your budget permits go for R15, best of the lot and no competition in 150cc class. Uni is a good bike, but before taking TD of Uni also check GS150R.
