[What Bike]: Ride for College guy - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

BhataktiAatma · 02-13-2011, 02:47 PM

Hey guyz my father has promised me a ride for next year college and thats made me feel elated and confused at the same time....
I've been riding P180 UG3 for a year now and would love an upgrade. Here are some of my needs...
Power- I am a power freak and love outright acceleration
Touring capabilities- Must be comfortable enough to do 250 kms stretches without many butt breaks
I dont care much for refinement and such, so vibes are not a major issue
Looks- I know looks are subjective but you may guess which bike will look good on me, i am 6'0" and 65Kgs
I'll maintain the bike decently but it must atleast not leave me stranded on a highway
My budget is approx 100k so please dont ask me to wait for cbr
Mileage must be around 35...
Thanx for your time and forgive me for writing such long list but i'm sure fellow enthusiasts will understand...

Power- I am a power freak and love outright acceleration
=> P220, R15
Touring capabilities- Must be comfortable enough to do 250 kms stretches without many butt breaks
=> P220, ZMR, ZMA-R
I dont care much for refinement and such, so vibes are not a major issue
=> P220
Looks- I know looks are subjective but you may guess which bike will look good on me, i am 6'0" and 65Kgs
=> P220, ZMR

=> ZMR, ZMA-R
My budget is approx 100k so please dont ask me to wait for cbr
=> P220, ZMR, R-15
Mileage must be around 35...
=> P220, ZMR, R-15

Therefore either P220 or ZMR
P220 Cheaper
ZMR Reliable and refined
Since u dont need refinement
go for P220
HENCE PROVED

Go for HH Karizma R or ZMR depending on your budget.

vipin_s · 02-13-2011, 05:45 PM

^^ +1 you try the new ZMA-R else ZMR.

P220 seems the best for you but you can check out the recently launched TVS Apache ABS too..

Had they launched it???When???

@Threadstarter:RTR 180 & P220 are the bikes which will give you outright acceleration.Though for touring purpose,P220 may be more comfortable.It is more refined than RTR180.

dushyant123 · 02-13-2011, 10:33 PM

They have introduced the new Apache...
check out the news section....
