    That is more than 40K Plus an Year.
    Is it on Highways or inside City?

    Go for Most Reliable Bike.
    Consider parts and oil change cost.
    Because the parts are going to get wear and tear if you do 150 a day.
    And you may also require frequent services.
    You may also need to put a better oil to it than stock.

    I Suggest Suzuki GSR 150R for your requirement and 6 Gear will give an advantage on highways.

    If you are considering FE go for 125cc.Yamaha Gladiator. Its little punching for the displacement and has an advantage of 5 Gears.

      GS150 is the best bike in 150 cc segment. It's suitable for city as well as long drives, with 6th gear advantage. My GS gives me 56kmpl of mileage. And SUZUKI sevice is not bad and spare parts are definitely cheaper than HONDA/YAMAHA.

      Take a test drive..compare its features with others like Uni, SZR, FZ etc Then decide.

        Stick to Unicorn

        Unicorn is more than enough man If ridden hard any bike will give you only that much. i have a friend who gets barely 40 mileage in his boxer. Change your riding style if you are ripping the bike cos ripping a bike for 150 kms a day is neither good for you nor for the bike.

        Service your unicorn if still problem persists
        CBR250R |
        Bajaj Pulsar 180 - dts i |
        Bajaj CT 100

        Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight.

        It was not that far on the map.

          Make us clear about your riding situations man!
          like, highway/city traffic,
          your speed range so that others could give you a well apt suggestion!

          Cause, a bike giving a mileage of 60+ when hard revved <that depends on the rev, obviously> will have only less power and such will probably not be able to take that revving!

          But, I suggest you to go with overdrive gear options, as you may not need to rev the engine so hard, for that decently high speed., considered the comparatively lesser mileage it will give, under the high revving options.......

          hey, your question seems to be hypothetical kidding
          better give clear details on requirements.
          The limiter kicks in @11,500 rpm just within a second after the first shift..And, that's where the fun begins !! ;)
