Hi. I'm Sri. 20 yrs old. I'm 5'7,pretty lean and I look something like this(minus the abs). I'm planning to get bike by this jan or feb. Initially i had Pulsar 180 and Apache 180 in mind. after some extensive research here ( especially this and this thread) and having ridden both the bikes in the past, I decided to go ahead with Apache 180. But recently I started thinking about Bajaj Avenger too. I'v always liked the bike but kept it out of my wishlist considering my physique. I once sat on my friend's avenger and all of them bust out laughing :P.
So, can you guys like tell me if its worth going for an avenger over an Apache 180, considering my needs and physical build. I'll mostly be using the bike to get to office on weekdays (which is actually like 15min walk from my place). visit my friends' place which again is not too far away (5-6km max). On weekends i'll probably be traveling about 25-35km (max 50km). And like once in a month or once in 2 months i'm planning to go on long rides of about 500-600kms (maybe on a saddlesore someday). Since I live in panjim, I don't really need to deal with traffic (since i'm used to chennai traffic, goa traffic is nothing :P). So, coming back to the question again, is it worth going for an Avenger? cos, end of the day i don't' wanna end up enjoying my ride but look like a mosquito sitting on a buffalo. Your suggestions pls.
Previous riding experience: Bajaj XCD, TVS Flame, Apache 160, Bajaj Platina, Honda Unicorn. Pulsar 150 and 180, Unicorn and Apache being my favorite. Unicorn for the comfort and Apache for the amazing throttle response, ride posture and the adrenaline rush \m/.
