Nope, Dazzler is not faster than FZ. It's defiantly fuel efficient. My brother in law has Dazzler and FZ-S, both have been dragged and FZ-S is faster in every aspect.

A good free flow makes it as powerful as stock R15. (My R15 had a hard time running away from FZ with free flow)

+1
but the FZ can give the R15 a run for its money if there is a 60kmph speed limiter

yeah that's because FZ produces its peak power at lower RPM's in comparison with R15 & also R15 doesn't have a torquy engine..

Dazzler will not suit you, it will look very small on you. Normal unicorn and GS150 will better suit you.

For fz, it is comfortable for a guy of 6 feet, i have seen many guys of 6 feet height riding fz. It is big bike. After riding fz for 1 month, I rode my friends dazzler, I felt dazzler too small compared to fz, but comfortable as handle bar was very much near to my body. No need to stretch your hand as in fz.

But after riding fz, pulsar 150 also seems to be small bike when I ride pulsar. It is due to fz riding stance, it is quite unique, straight handle bar, big rider seat and big tank plastic.

For mileage part, if you increase your speed slowly and ride mostly in top gears, it will give you 45-50. Mine is the 45 min mileage, normally 48 to 50. Before first service I were able to get 55 two times provide 60-65 max speed.

Now normally I ride 40-65-70 in city and 70-80 on highway, in this speed it can give mileage 45-50.

i think your best bet would be between the dazzler, cbz extreme and the gs 150 r ... if i were you i'd pick the dazzler.. (jst a thought).. though i'd prefer gs 150 r to the extreme, bt i've no idea about its after sales service ,spares etc .gs 150 is a very capable ,refined and powerful ride nt to mention underrated..... fuel price here at 62, now for a college guy dazzler gives good average too and will suit you more than the fz.

BTW : unicorn has been phased out here in mumbai.

just tried a super thrash mode (quick and full twist of throttle, 3 digit speeds every now and then) for the past 2 days. for 200rs worth petrol (abt 3.25L) it ran almost 132 odd kilometres. just a bit above 40kmpl.
and yeah, 95% highway conditions
