    For those requirements, Yamaha SZ would be a good enough choice.
    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.

      Go for SZ-r purely on low maintenance, FE and reliability. You can consider Dazzler and Fazer also but FE on Fazer maybe slightly lower than SZ or dazzler.

      Any specific reason you have included RE Electra in this?

        Check out CBZ/HUNK/Dazzler !! These are good bikes!!

        You will get dual disc, power of 150cc with good average.

        P220 or Karizma are not for city, but there are people who ride it in city and they are happy.

        In your case 150cc should be the best!!
        If you don't care mileage with 40-45kmpl then you can look at FZ too...One of the best city bike and awesome handling, braking etc..

            You have good height I don't see any issues. Believe me I have seen Skinny people riding RE, now say ?? any queries over it ?? LOL...

            The main thing is you should know to ride the bike with your bikes limit and behaviour. This helps you to stay away from any mishap or get alert before time.
            Bro it has to be you, who will decide which bike is the best !! We can only suggest!

            Test ride is very important!! Get a TR and see which is best for you!!

              According to given options yamaha-SZ suits the best for you, great bike in city riding open throttle till 90kmph, decent pickup and power for city, can be cruised till almost 110kmph, FE is also around 40-50, reliable, a good maintainer can ride it till 5 year very easily, average maintenance, rest depends on uses.

              Else you can have a look on Suzuki GS150/Hunk/Extreme/Dazzler
              KTM RC390 - Current
              Yamaha R15 v2 - Sold
              Hero Hunk - Sold

                        Hi Kashish...welcome to xbhp !! have you introduced yourself in "Who are you " section ??

                        Will your third post increase more 5kms to last kms posted ??...lol..

                        Bro for city ZMA/P220/Elctra are something more than required in city. These bikes are superb on highways but in city they are heavy with hassle to handle in traffic, where as any 150cc commuter will zip zap pass you in traffic with ease.

                        Twice in a yr you would be touring 200*2 so 400kms a yr. Not so big deal so ideally your main usage is daily rides of 30kms max.

                        So keeping in mind of feasibility to handle and performance you should go with Dazzler/CBZ/Hunk/FZ/RTR 180.

                        RTR 180 would be good in city as well as highway.

                        ZMA is more better to handle in city compare to P220 but somewhere i feel a 223cc should behave like P220 characteristic..

                        My pick from above would be Dazzler/RTR....these two will give you the best in city +highway req

                            Feature point of view P220 is best in the lot.

                            But Karizma has better handling in city as compare to Electra or P220.

                            RE is something where person die for it then they buy. It's some kind of different feeling. If you feel for RE then you won't ask straight away book it.


                            Bro when you are thinking on P220 then why not NS200 ?? Just you would need some low gear handling in city but awesome in handling over ZMA or P220 or electra!!

                            It's good and lovely to ride!!

                            My pick would be NS200, if no then only P220.
