    Firstly from the next post don't use caps while writing, its against forum discipline.

    Secondly keep a check on the number of smileys per post, I couldn't read your post because I could only see smileys in that.

        Any reason for not considering RTR180??Infact, this is the bike that would most probably suit you as per your requirements.

        D.I.Y-Valve clearance setting RTR180
        D.I.Y-RTR180 brake fluid replacing/brake bleeding
        D.I.Y-RTR180 brake pad replacing/cleaning
        Exploded view of Mikuni BS-29 carb

        A motorcycle functions entirely in accordance with the laws of reason, and a study of the art of motorcycle maintenance is really a miniature study of the art of rationality itself.

                In his city, it may cost around 80K

                Anyways, fo the ThreadStarter, RTR is what I recommend for you.

                  @Manas..

                  Keep your eye open for Yamaha R15.. Used one at around 65k would be the best option..

                  Spare can be costly but over all its a low maintenance bike with good city mileage []. Considering the stunning looks, and fact of lower amount of touring need, its the best option in the given list of bikes..

                    RTR would be the best option going by your requirements.

                        What is the price range for used R15s? Is it 60-70K as mentioned in the first post? Also, does the same price range hold valid for Delhi ?

                            Noted all your points friend.One of my freinds said that rtr have vibration from 6000 rpm.is it true.can it continue. personally i did not like the current 150 ...i have here to know that pulsar will be complete change in 2011 .Is there any news or pic.should i wait for that?
                            I also consider secondhand R15 or low cost FZ (secondhand)

                            Pls recommend.

                              I think in delhi you will find the r15 in much lesser price...
