  • First Bike

    Hello,

    I want to buy my first bike.

    I am already driving a really old bike (hero honda dawn)of my elder brother. It is nice though but I am fed up of it now. So want to move on to something new.

    I have shortlisted two bikes but they are of different segments 1. Honda CB Dazzler (white) and 2. Discover 125 ST.

    Please suggest which one would be a better choice as my use age includes mostly city driving with some outing once in 2 or 3 months and like people who ride harley davidson and other cruisers on a trip, I love to ride though I don't have money to purchase those.

    So, any suggestions ???

    Advice is a form of nostalgia.
    Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

      Dazzler would be better than 125st.And white one looks real good too.

        ​assuming that you are a college goer i suggest pulsar 135.
        and the question remains why do i race?
        every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

          Dazzler is any day better than Discover.

                        hello its me again thank you all...

                        but this has confused me even further coz i thought discover would be chosen one...but opposite happened.

                        so here is my criteria

                        pocket friendly (fuel & maintainence)

                        comfortable for long rides (mentioned in post)

                        easy to move around in heavy city traffic and zoom on highways

                        looks good

                          What is your budget? What mileage do u expect? Both are good bikes in their own segment. Dazzler being a 150 cc machine of course provides better comfort and performance. Handling wise also dazzler is good. Discover do better in mileage. For basically city purpose discover 125st is enough.
