Its the perfect commutourer (sorry Satyen if I violated copyright). Nobody here would want that you reject a bike solely becuse of the way it sounds.

But if you want a more stylish ride, you could look at the Dazzler. (But i have no experience of its Tall-Person-Worthiness) It also gives you the option of a rear disc(since you require good stopping power).

FZ is the best city slicker you can get if you can pardon its (Comparitively) lower fuel efficiency and a smallish pillion seat. Brakes are adequate. Handling is awesome.

Stunner fans must have already told you how good that one is so I will refrain from commenting on that one.

Nobody needs to tell you the typical pros and cons of HH.
thnx for the advice, actually i wasn't going to reject the bike only because of its sound though it does matters a lot when you are on a tour with your bike only. but because of various reasons, like availability of spare parts, service chain, the chrome finish looked cheep to me

but still my first options are dazzler and gs150R
and second is fz

BTW i believe you own one GS150R, hows the bike as an overall package, how is the after sales services? any major problem or flaws with the bike? were the mechanics at the service center able to resolve it?? (were the mechanics talented enough??)
nothing else you want me to know about the bike or suzuki which might help me in making my decision or atleast makin it easier?
Thnx dude..

About my bike (GS150R) Its good till now didn't faced major issue;
overall its a nice package and service center engineers are good at my place

Dazzler is price wise bit high but it comes with disc brake on both wheels

I would say both are on par but selection should vary according to individual's preference
and Both has the trustful Japanese engine


Try test drive on both and chose the one that suites you
