Gs150 is very good bike and gives decent efficiency ... go for it..

Heard very good things about the GS150 but visit the service center first and see how long it takes to service it etc. Also, if the Service center is too far away from home, it may be a slight problem since they dont have too many in any of the cities. Otherwise, it seems to be a good bike for the purpose.

how bad is the city traffic you are talking about?? may be a good idea to go with 125cc scooter, would certainly take the stress out of every day riding. As far as your choice is concerned, it's a good bike, make sure you have svc near by and check spares availability in your area. If both seem to satisfy you, then you can go ahead with it.

+1... GS150 is a good steed. Ample power to pull with authority. Since you've asked for this bike yourself, I'm assuming you're (somewhat) inclined to it. Do a test drive and decide. I would have asked you to test drive HH CBZ Xtreme/ Hunk or Unicorn Dazzler too, but its good that you've zeroed in on a particular bike. Mileage is relative. You can get upto 40 kmpl on a 220cc mill if ridden sanely and 35 kmpl on a 150 if ridden like .... (

All the best bro.... Get a GS150 soon n post pics...

As a Gs150r owner i would definitely recommend you to go for it.It gives very good comfort while compared with other 150cc bikes and for mileage it will give 45+ in heavy city traffic and 50+ in moderate traffic.

I would recommend go for a gearless scooter.. ample storage space and no gear shifting would be a boon..
If storage space is not a constraint.. Fz is also a good and trendy city bike with good low end torque.. GS a good bike, but service center should be near and good
