it looks better than the Glamour!!! and somewhat better than the RTR too from some angles! It is cheap enough that you can buy it and replace the front dome with the CBZ-X dome and still save money!

Danny, my bet is still on Achiever. As KP said, it looks way better than Glamour.

I too agree with Achiver, May be it does not have eye catchy looks, But firts your bill perfectly in all the ways.

Decent mileage, Best pickup, 100kmph+ with ease, Low-maintanance, Compatibility with other HH bikes like Xtreme and Hunk, comfortable ride position and smooth engine.

Surprised to see recommendation for Achiever !! Well Fully loaded Achiever in B'lore costs as same as Stunner(carb), what you get from Achiever ...* Unicorn engine * Slightly better mileage *HH svc network adv * Bike feels like 125 kilo only!! but still solidly built and excellent ergonomics. You could also work out some good discount with dealers depending on model/year of manufacture/optional features.

(*) Fully loaded : Alloys/Self/Front Disc/Tuff-up tyre...for more details...go here...(the site claims new version has AMI instead of CDI +CV carb)

Achiever

Coming to your original list, I'd say go for Stunner (best overall package), looks wise glam. is nothing.

Hmmm. Looks are subjective. But, we feel the Achiever looks better than the Laal wali Glamour.

Did you check them in flesh?

for my budget 60k, its either:
Stunner with 2 modification that you guys suggested
Or Glamour PGMFi

I guess i'll be able to make decision once I test drive this weekend.
For higher-end bikes, only RTR Fi suits my requirements - the extra 15k is worth.

Well, I'll test drive Achiever as well.

When your budget is 60k, how can you buy Stunner PGM-Fi which is 74.5k on road?

Achiever is a better VFM package than a Syunner FI. More pick up and more power at lesser price. The engine is being the same of Unicorn, it is smooth, super silent and refined.

Of course, the Stunner FI looks really stunning. This would have been a real stunner at around 65-67k.

If your preference is only looks, go for Stunner Carb version which gives a mileage of 60. Remember RTR FI gives only a mileage of around 45. Achiever gives approximately around 55 kmpl.

Take decision based on the above facts.
