Im very tired of giving out sensible advice on these 'New Bikes' threads. Will be just listing out some steps to be taken :

1). Read Hydbiker's post: Help me in Chossing the bike ( List is big ).

2). Take a test ride of the three bikes shortlisted viz. Zma, P220 and R15.

3). You being of a small build and weighing in at 52 kgs may find it difficult to muscle a Zma/P220 around when in a tight spot (As in when the bike gets unruly etc).
NOTE: The Yamaha by virtue of being a flyweight in this group yet manages to make nearly as much power as the other two.

4). Weigh your budget options and the time your willing to wait before you make a purchase.

5). Get your a$$ over to the showroom of either HH, Bajaj or Yamaha as per your decision and buy the damn bike already.

6). Post up on the ownership thread as to how much fun you're having with your new acquisition.

Cheers !
