Based on what?

@topic starter: I'd pick P135 out of these. You'll love the acceleration. Very good VFM package with looks, mileage, goodies, best in class Power to weight ratio(13.5 bhp with 120KG) and very good handling too.

It is capable to take out most of the 150cc's around on the performance front.

Yamaha SZX will suit you if you drive too lazy & comfort is your preference over fun. You'll find this one boring.

Twister too is a good bike but it is sort of kids bike, too short and skinny. good performer for a 110cc though

Best thing would be to go out test ride each of them and decide.

Out of the three, P135 would be the best deal..

Have you considered the Yamaha SS125 though? That's a good bike too..

Pulsar 135 all the way. has sporty design and good mileage. Haven't heard too many issues with it either. (its been around for only a year or so).

SZ-X/Twister vs the 135 is a very contrasting choice.135 is supposed to be a sporty machine whereas the others are more of the "Mileage Commuter".So based on your needs the 135 is the way to go,i believe its gives a reasonable mileage too,not sure though.

For highway usage the SZ will give the best grunt out of the three. And a reliable and durable engine to book. The Twister will feel slightly out of grunt at the top end, though it handles really well.

Not a fan of the pulsars, due durability and longevity of the vehicles not a strong point.
