Alrighto Dude.. Not hitting arrows in the air..
Concrete Results..
Same is the case with me.. Now i have shortlisted 200,ZMA and R15..as my choices..i smoked out 220..

1) 220- can go for it anytime..However, i wud not go for it ..personaly..
Performance- not good
Looks : :O
Good afterward service..(For 220)

2) ZMA: high revving engine.lond life,great
Performance-
Looks : No Doubts
Good afterward service..

3) 200: A1 styling,performance first clas..,engine: Great
Performance-
Looks-
Good afterward service..:

4) R-15: Long Stroke engine,low lower grunt, high revving engine,can even smoke out zma,if the rider has the guts..
Performance-
Looks :
Good afterward service.. No Idea..

i dont think 220 is a bad bike either! that is, in performance/reliability department..ppl have taken 220's in long tours without any probs...

But my personal choice would be the R15 anyday, if i have $$ that is

If you personaly dont belive in purchasing 220,i srsly don't believe in giving suggestion about it to others also.. as i know..
Bajaj's F-i is still not worrth it... I wud go for a carb..rather than F-i in bajaj..

If i had 1,12,000 INR im my kitty.. I'd run over to the nearest Yamaha dealer in my city and buy myself a spanking new Red R15

There's nothing that comes close to it when it comes to outright performance and handling abilities..

You might wanna hold onto your greens a little longer though bro.. The R15 doesnt have an adjustable rear suspension, which Yamaha would be looking to rectify pretty soon..
Id advise you listen to the grapevine on our beloved xBhp and take your final call

Cheers..!!
