    ^^ Again I'll suggest you try SS125/P135LS, who knows you might end up changing your mind after test riding them. They tick all the boxes for you & will have additional performance on tap if at all it's required. Well Twister/Sling shot are also good options, if you are going for Sling shot, check about service center's availability, spares availability etc.

          if mileage is that big a problem, get the unicorn/dazzler.

          FZ-S has different paint schemes, a visor and minor change in the headlight assembly. Then engine is still the same.

            With the right driving between 45-60 KMPH, what might be the mileage for the unicorn, dazzler and FZ-s? I also will be thankful if some one shares me the mileage filgures of extreme as well...

              Unicorn=50-55
              dazzler=50
              FZ-S=40
              GS=55-60

                  Friends,
                  This is a great forum. I have also decided to buy a bike. Have been planning since a long time but now its high time for me to do so!
                  I am around 5 Ft 9" & 80 Kg approx. My budget might vary according to the requirements. Anything less than 70k is fine provided it fits extremely well into my requirement.

                  My requirement:

                  Should give very good mileage if not excellent (Expecting min 55-60 consistently)
                  I am compromising above for some good looks as well and not just an ordinary commuter.
                  Also looking for a resale value after 5 yrs (This is not that imp though)
                  Most importantly, it should be of low maintenance & highly reliable engine like my current 2001 model splendor!
                  Bike shouldn't be that heavy as am afraid I can't handle them especially, when I try to put a centre stand
                  The overall feel of bike should be a perfect balance and not "larger than meets the eye" appeal.


                  I have ruled out the below already:

                  Stunner
                  Shine (I know this is good bike but can't bear it anymore, IMO. No offense to any owners pls)
                  Passion & passion pro
                  SS125 (I know its superb, but some how didn't like the design)
                  Super Splendor (For being an ordinary looking bike)
                  No Bajaj Bikes please (Had some bad exp for my frinds and I personally don't really like them inspite of their excellent mileage)

                  Bearing the above,

                  Does it make sense I see in 125 cc only? If so, can i check out new HH glamor? I think slingshot is as good as this.
                  I am also liking unicorn but it doesn't have any latest goodies as other bikes and its still 70k when others are giving extras as well as the same quality. Still I might prefer it provided it gives a good mileage.

                  I always maintain 40-60 speed.

                  I suggest you to go for Honda Shine 125CC or the Yamaha SZR 150 CC, the yamaha SZR is a low priced 150 CC vehicle and delivers a god mileage around 53-55kmpl. Passions are not that relaible these days and the Super Splendor! only few people know that name!!! Will post u some more suggestions after I enquire ! k Bye!~
