hello. im new to xbhp and this is my first post
i need help with buying my new bike. my budget is 60k. not more than that. maybe 2 or 3 k more but cant stretch more than that. ive done some research and narrowed it down to these 2 in the end. bajaj pulsar 135 and yamaha gladiator aka yamaha ss 125. i still strongly feel that the yamaha is much better in terms of build quality and feel. i really want to buy that. but if theres something i dont know about pulsar 135 or any other bike in the same range id like your inputs thanks a lot and looking forward to posting a lot more in the future

the SS is great in build quality. If you can opt for it, go for yamaha for a more reliable and durable bike.
Also the new SZ150 is a great bike to opt for in your budget. look into that as well.

Pulsar has much better performance than SS125,its build isn't bad though yamaha is better and it's overall much better in my opinion.
My friend who's having 135 told me that he's very happy with it and it's a real sweet handler |

Bro I have test rided both, but I felt P135 to be better, IMHO. P135 wins over SS125 in all department except touring comfort. If you can change P135 seats with better cushioned ones, it will be best in all departments.
My call, P135LS. ![]() bro SZ misses ES. SZ-X with ES. But both missing the disk brakes
