after all heavy bike for a heavy man.
( i m also 90 and ride yamaha rx100 -a very gentle bike)
Beats 180 in 0-60 drag
Dont know exact but fz posts 5.xx and P180 does it in 4.xx according to my knowledge.

Get Fz if you are a big fan of the looks and hate pulsars or traffic in your city is very dense. ( You will love the low end in that case.)

for any other place or purpose, be it touring on highways or city comutting P180 will do.

If you want a fun-to-ride machine, go for FZ. Except quoted low mileage, the bike is awesome. You can happily do highway rides, the bike is wind-tunnel tested for high-speed stability. The low-end high torque gives better roll-on figures for FZ and it is fun to ride in city. You can not go wrong with Yamaha in quality and reliability.

What about a P220S? How does that feel to you?

Or might be a Fazer? You will look nice with big front fairing.

From both of them Pulsar 180 is a VFM machine. Donot just remove the vehicle from your list just becuz it has become 'COMMON', I hate this word. All bikes have 2 tyres, 1 engine that delivers power, so almost all the things are common in the bikes. So, why purchase them, Instead we should then buy a ROCKET only becuz it is uncommon or we should buy Bullock-cart only becuz it is the most uncommon in cities or maybe switch back to HORSES used by RAJA-MAHARAJA. No offence, purely my thinking about COMMON word.

SPOT ON ! my friend well,i hate this word more than ever now,everyone takes this word as a reason not to buy pulsars.

@thread starter--No matter what others say here,if you want to test both bikes for comfort don't ask here,take a test ride and decide for yourself

and regarding other aspects p180 hands down,well it doesn't mean FZ is bad;it is good but not when compared with marginally powerful machine like p180 .
