      Which of these is better in traffic and relaxed ride quality?
      In city RTR would be more better than NS200 any given time, because it's shorter than NS200 + has good torque for city traffics....Where as NS200 is best on open roads.

      If you want a bike for city then RTR, If you can adjust with traffic instead of zic zacing in traffic then NS200.

      See mate these two bikes though comes in commuter segment but have very distinct features and are very subjective to ride.

      Mostly a sensible rider won't go for looks, he will instead go for it's purpose and features!! I would select Duke any time in city, where as for highway I would select Ninja over any faired bike in 250cc. where as I am a sports riding lover(Ninja don't have R15 position). But still features and need is what is more important then looks, What I will do with R15/CBR/Ninja looks/riding position in city ?

      As far as I have ridden NS in city you have to be in frequent gears shift with accelerations!

      But you have to decide how bad traffic do you have ? and are you willing to bare with it for the charm of NS200 on highway.
