Well, I have been planning to buy a bike, but i am really confused what to go for.
I need a bike which, I could use for small trips for about 100 -120 kms with a pillion rider, and long trips like 400kms, which I would be riding single.
Currently I own the Discover 110 (2005), which was the first model of Discover and I have done trips on that bike for around 450 kms in a day. Well, my back did get brutally sore on that day, that's another story!
Recently i had done a short trip for around 100 kms with a pillion rider (my gf) and she never wants to do it again on this bike, she indeed had a tough time on the bike. Obviously the vibrations are too high at 80-90kmph, and she got cramps in her legs due to that!
But right now I am planning to buy a bike with :
- Better riding comfort and pillion comfort,
- Nil Vibrations,
- Good power and looks,
- Better riding in the city as well,
As I would have to travel through city to my office through Outer ring road for around 25kms (one-way). And i am a kind of person who loves to zig-zag and zoom through traffic in Bangalore.
I was really interested into Avenger, but right now its really not an option. I might miss my city driving skills. :P
Though I have heard about the comfort level in FZ is high for the rider (also i have ridden it), but not for pillion in the older versions of FZ. But the updated FZs released in 2012 have better pillion seats, needed some reviews about that. FZs indeed can be used for long drives, they do provide very good comfort to the rider and they have almost nil vibrations!
I could update my budget and go for the Pulsar 200Ns. Oh, its an Eyegasmic beauty. But i really need to know about the comfort level for rider, and comfort level for the pillion as well!
Regarding my budget, its upto buying an FZ. Though i could extend it to buying a 200NS, just because of the love for its power and beauty and everything. But, like i said, the comfort level, is it better than FZ?
Also i would like to have a mileage of at-least 35+ or 40 in highway, and both these bikes I mentioned provide them.
Please Suggest.
Regards.

Karizma R is a good option as well and I am thinking about it. But as its a old one, I am thinking to go for something withe the "New gen" stuff.
