I am a college going student. I ride a CB twister as of now. While i am happy with the bike, I'm not satisfied
. I want to go in for a new bike but am totally confused . I want a power house with good looks and a mileage not too compromised. Most of my riding will be on the highway, minimal in city. I cover about 40-45km everyday. I also tour a little bit, so i want a bike that can cruise at triple digit speeds without wrecking my back or itself . My budget Can stretch max upto 1.2 or 1.3 lac. So a CBR250r is out of question . I took a look at the new r15. Looks great, handles great. But the pillion seat looks pretty uncomfortable. I usually take a pillion. So that too is a priority . Will production of the old model be stopped? Which bike if not the r15?I'm obviously looking for an all rounder which'll give me a bit of everything: mileage. comfort. Low maintenance. Performance. Style. Durability. Ease of touring. All within a cost of 1.2 or 1.3 lac. |

Why don't you look at the new SZ-R which is way below your budget, and gives you adequate power, a mileage of around 50, comfort and being a 150cc, you should have no issues touring on it.
All this below 60k! Else-wise, take a pick between the p220 and the ZMR..

^^^ I agree. SZ-R is the best bet. Apache 160 is equally good too. So look into that too. If you can compromise on the mileage a bit, then ZMR is very good.
