Default Ride for a passionate rider

hey guyz as you can see its my first post in the forum but i've been following xbhp for almost 3-4 months now, m just late to register
I've been riding my bro's p180 UG3 for 2 years now and i love its power and the way its handles..
Now I've been promised by my dad for a bike for college next month and this has landed me into ecstasy and stress simultaneously...
So let me tell you a lil' bit about my requirements..
I love outright acceleration in a bike and love ripping also the braking must be efficient if not perfect
Dont care much for refinement as i am one of those guys who like to feel the ride so vibes etc not a concern
Average maintainence by my side
I like bikes with big bike looks
Budget approx. 100k
I am 6'0" and weigh 65kgs. Atheletic build
Sorry if i wrote too much but i am sure fellow enthusiasts will understand...

P220 is the best bet for you i think as its got everything you'd like....
tvs Apache ABS may also do....

Actually you need not have ask when you have already narrowed down your choice to just one bike ... P220 . Anyway, welcome to xBhp!

As all suggested, P220 is the best option, R15 would be cramped for your height, no other bike is in the vicinity too for your choice

P220 will suit you best but i suggest you to wait for the big launch by Bajaj on April.
