I don't want to go for unicorn bcoz of its dated looks which is best known for its riding capability.
    I am 5,11" if its comfortable for me I do not see any reason it would not be for you, well but the suspension is on the harder side I would recommend you set it to the softer settings if you drive on very kuchha type roads.

    • On the other note does this bike have a rev limiter, also does 220 has one.

        As the vibrations become significant above 60KMPH speed i was thinking of changing the engine oil and see if that helps.
        I have poured in Motul Mineral Oil 15w50 on my P135 at 700 kms. And, after that my bike's gear shifting and running are very smooth.
        Also, as pointed by payeng, the vibrations are within 70-80 kmph and are felt mainly in the foot pegs.

        I am 5'7" tall and I don't have any problem with the bike. You also wouldn't have. Regarding your back pain, you can make the suspension setting to softest. But, it will compromise with the handling.

        No, P135 does not have any over-rev indicator as in 220. But it is electronically limited at 10,500 rpm. I have revved it upto 9000 rpm till now. I don't know what happens actually at 10,500 rpm.

          At 10,500 rpm the revs gets cut off.. but it gets cut off very very softly and not abruptly like a few other bikes.

            I had ridden the P135LS for around a week and had noticed that this could happen a few times. Just be a little bit conscious while shifting to neutral.





            Chill..
            payeng,

            pardon my ignorance here....but that the problem described by the poster seems to be what we understand as false neutral. Can you please explain what according to you is the definition and symptom of "false neutral" ??
            There once was a woman who was quite begat.
            She had three babies named Nat, Pat, and Tat.
            She said it was fun in the breeding,
            But found it was hell in the feeding
            When she saw there was no tit for Tat.

                For a one-up, four down (5 speed) gear pattern..

                >> There can be just one neutral position; i.e betweeb 1st and 2nd gear right..??

                >> There shouldn't be any other neutral between 2'nd-3'rd-4'th and 5'th anywhere, right??


                Now while shifting between ANY OTHER GEAR (apart from 1'st to 2,nd or from 2'nd to 1st).. if you aren't slotted into a gear, that means you have encountered into a FALSE NEUTRAL which shouldn't be there.

                The poster says that, he tries to slot into neutral but is actually still engaged in gear.

                • I touched 116kmph on the bike last night :O I thought top speed was 115kmph! It must be maybe because I am just 60kgs and manual says 115kmph(68kgs person riding)..!
                  Getting a mileage of 52-53km/litre which is pretty good.
                  Although I still get slight vibrations above 4000rpm in all gears but I have gotten used to it now!

                    That's speedo error, dude.You can even hit 120km/hr+ speeds unless BAJAJ has provided zero-error speedos which is highly unlikely.

                    And the mileage is very good for a performance oriented bike!!

                      speedo are not accurate even i have seen 127kmph on my speedo!

                        I had tested the speedo with one of my uncles GPS device and the error is in the range of +5kmph - +8Kmph

                          thanks for checking!
                          I generally take this error +10 above 90
                          But it really doesn't matter in city because you cannot maintain a constant speed in city traffic.

                                comparing with Unicorn ...you can't compare a 135 cc bike with 150 CC...and more over Unicorn is something different...in terms of engine reliability...smoothness.. & quality...
