ZMR and p180? they're totally different..don't compare the beast ZMR with the common pulsar (I'm not saying pulsar is bad...it's also great but very common now)...

First set your expectation/requirement and post it. Might help members to narrow down the choices. Also, do a search on this forum, there are members had similar questions and made their choice. Hope it helps.
Bluntly starting a thread and asking to suggest among two different type of bike is doing no good to you nor others to help.

Since you had not posted your introduction, we would like to know:-
What are you doing? i.e student/working
What's the purpose? commuting/touring or both
What do you want? Performance/mileage
What's your budget?

Hiiiiiiiiiii budget is not a matter for me and am working in IT sector and rarely go for long drives am really interested in zmr but my dad likes pulsar 180 some of my friends says the pulsar now days not worth as old pulsar so i need suggestions

In that case you can go for ZMR. The bike is a head turner for sure. But don't expect mileage above 40 and also the bike is heavy so you cannot flick through the traffic. Comparitively, in traffic the pulsar would require less number of calories to burn. Also spares for ZMR are costly. If you are OK with these then go ahead else stick to P180. P180 is a VFM bike anyday.

Working in IT sector and budget is not a problem, buy Ninja250R, you'll love it.

Harish, this guy works for IT sector and have admitted no budget constraints at all. ZMR though in production till date, spares are hard to come. P180 is good but comes with vibrations/etc,
