One is 100cc category & other is 150cc category. Both are quite different. I will suggest you Discover 150cc instead, if mileage, performance & lightweight is your main concern.

Please tell us more about you concerns like mileage or performance, your height, build etc so that we can choose a more suitable bike for you.

When was this thread approved? Or mods forgot to put a Thread approved message?

Anyways.. Very little is legible in your request.

AAnyways.. as for your queriey, you require a commuter, buy a commuter. Twister is the one for you. I suppose, it will be lighter on you pocket in every way imaginable as compared to a Yamaha SZ. Isn't that what commuters are looking for?

Anyways, if you have any other specific requirements, please be more specific. Please Read the "How to" for this section and you will know what I mean.

Twister costs Rs.58,000/- on road and SZ-X costs Rs.56,000/- on road.
The only problem with SZ-X is it doesnt have disc brakes.

Please Edit your thread starting message.
What is the use of Disc Brake in Commuter bikes?For doing stoppies at traffic signals?
I dont understand
These bike are light weight bikes and thus the stopping force required is very less as compared to the heavy Indian Bikes Like P220,ZMR,RTR.

Usually our Indian commuters bikes like to road race, at least here that's what I have seen. So they feel fitting a disk brake makes them feel more confident in road-racing

Jokes apart, disk brakes are in light weight P135LS too.

Twister is a good choice but overpriced IMO. You could get a P135 at similar price. only 1.5k difference. D150 is a good commuter too but light on pocket at 52k, mileage is also good. It also have disk brakes.
