    FZ-S or Unicorn

    I am posting this on behalf of my friend who needs to get a bike for commuting short distances in the city. He is expecting a FE of 35 and above. Daily commute will be around 35 km. Ride should be comfortable for both rider and pillion. A ride that weighs less is preferable. Budget is around 75k so if there are any other suggestions they are welcome too. I've personally suggested FZ-S. He wants to get more opinions before he books one. Help him out please

    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.

      FZ-S and FZ cost more than 75k, I believe FZ-S will cost atleast 5k more than Unicorn.

      FZ is way above Unicorn in terms of low end torque, styling, features/technology (o-ring chain, LCD speedo, fat rear tire etc)
      Unicorn wins in engine refinement, mileage (unbelievable mileage 150cc can give!), pillion comfort.
      AFAIK, FZ weighs less than Uni.

          ​something from hero stable will do.
          and the question remains why do i race?
          every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

              be smart

              Fzs is better choice. But it costs more. The pillion comfort is not that good in fz-s, esp its not fit for women wearing saree. Else it does its job quite well. Honda Dazzler and tvs Apache160 are two other choices.
