      CBZ Xtreme : New styling & better build quality than Dazzler (I found build quality of Dazz somewhat not good as Unicorn), rear disc works well on heavier CBZ than lighter Dazzler, More features compared to Dazzler, Less OTR plus std. accessories included, More power... GO FOR ALL NEW CBZ XTREME

        Bro xtreme and hunk share the same engine and is quite smooth, but dazzler has got the most refined engine! and the suspensions and ride quality in dazzler are A-class. rtr has got a lot of torque to pump up your adrenaline but ain't that smooth, the vibrations come into notice right around some 4000 rpm and as you open the throttle, the vibrations will keep on climbing. the ride position is lean forward and sporty and is forward biased, good for racing but not that good for cruising. and coming to the pulsar 150, in my opinion there's nothing in it to go for! large turning radius is a problem you might face. and moreover you'll find plenty and plenty of p150s around you, wherever you go.

        now the mileage. hunk and cbz x have no issues with their mileage, would give you around 50 for sure. rtr gives 45-50 and there's some mileage issue with pulsar 150 ug4, gives around 40-45 some bikes have been returning only 35 or so dunno what's the matter. and dazzler gives 50+.

        since you're looking for a defined bike, i would suggest you to go for dazzler! highly refined engine, the monoshock is excellent in its job

          Refinement b/w Hunk,Dazzler,CBZ,Unicorn & Achiever - Hardly there's any difference. I have owned CBZ Xtreme and I presently ride Achiever, I find Achiever is more refined than CBZ or even Unicorn (by a very small margin), the first version unicorns gets my marks for refinement over all the above models !!

          In my opinion Dazzler overall build quality < Unicorn and even CBZ/Hunk (present models).

          Why GS150R is not on your list ?? it's a rocking bike that needs consideration !!

              bro...! thank u so much for ur quick response..! i currently own a gs !
              i hate the service in suzuki.... here in chennai there are very less shwrooms for suzuki and spare parts are not at all available !

                    @GSpian :As far as spares is concerned no company will provide you every spare instantly. I heard even Unicorn/Dazzler owners are finding difficult to get spares, sometime back Tufftubes for Activa went off shelves for a month in B'lore. Some Karizma parts are available after 15 days etc etc

                    What do you want to do with your GS ? Is it having any serious problems ?
                    Here is b'lore I find Suzuki svc better than HH/HMSI, the process and feeling is like you are leaving your 'car' for service. They call you back for feedback, if any issues they will call you back for re-look at the issue etc etc.

                      here it is the direct opposite...the service sucks big time...nothing is good here...if u come and see the suzuki show room velachery u will laugh like u hav hell.. it is a flat(apartment) from the first floor . . only 3 to 4 mechanics....2 bikes at a time . . its a complete waste

                        hai dude..I would say cbz xtreme is the good choice for u..Test drive the new cbz xtreme and decide..you mentioned ur weight near 100 kg so dazzler is not good option for u because it lacks the big bike feel it is pretty small..Cbz xtreme is now feature-rich and also good upgrade for you in terms of performance(gs150=13.4 ps , xtreme=14.4).
                        sz-r is just value for money package from yamaha..and it gives more mileage than fz..cbz xtreme gives more or less same mileage similiar to sz-r..

                            great... According to me u mentioned some brackets in ur new bike decision..And cbz xtreme sits in between that bracket.. So clearly test ride the bike and find ur day..
                            And if u find new xtreme in showroom..try to post the test ride review and pics especially rear of the bike..

                              @satheez, Good substantiation there, dazzi looks smallish even for a well built guy...
                              @GSpian : Test ride the new CBZ and see if it satisfies you...
