    Mu budget: Max 80K (Bangalore)

    About my requirements
    1. Low on maintenance - I dont want to rush to service center every now and then.
    2. Good FE should be above 45
    3. Good service (Bangalore and at Kolkata later) + availability of spares
    4. Comfortable seating postures
    I have few bikes in mind.
    As this will be your First bike, I Hope the Top Speed is No Issue.

    My Vote is for CBZ keeping your above requirements (on the very first page) in mind; although Apache is close behind.

      i was in a similar sort of situation 6 months back. first time rider. had to learn after buying a bike. i had various choices. but finally went for cbz xtreme. i learnt riding in it. and within one month i did 1000 kms. i felt very comfortable in it.. and now making my first long ride next week to banglore. i havent tried other bikes. so no opinions about them. overall, cbz is a very good bike in my opinion.
