Hey all,
I'm following xbhp for a long time but recently joined to be able to post a query. I own a Yezdi Roadking(learnt biking on it ) and a 2004 Honda Unicorn. Being a Uni owner I know what a smooth drive in a 150cc bike is. Now, I've relocated to B'lore and going to purchase a new ride.My requirement in order of prefernece are: -Smooth drive i.e. No vibration (Uni spoiled me )-Above 50 mileage -Less than 75 K -Preferably a heel-toe gear shifter as I wear formal shoes n don't wanna spoil them ![]() -Comfortable and fast on highways for inter-city pleasure drives ![]() -Latest tech gadgets (which Uni lacks )-Good service n availablity of spare parts I'm looking at Suzuki GS150R, Honda Unicorn and Apache RTR-FI for now. No Pulsar coz its damn common (although its a wonderful bike) No FZ-16 coz it lacks in comfort for pillion n smoothness factor (my opinion )Leaning towards GS150R at the moment as Unicorn is a bit outdated and RTR vibrates like crazy. Please advice

Performance is not my main criteria .. I like to give the bike an occassional zip and drive at an average speed of 80 (whenever possible ) and like my fair share of street racing with complete strangers ... my knowledge of GS150R is limited to all bike forums and have seen it only once .. I like Karizma also but for I kinda dislike that single gear shifter which requires to move your feet constantly over and below it, I live in b'lore now and thats one of the worst traffic in the world so involves a lot of gear shifts
I would have definitely gone for RTR-FI but for its vibrations |
