  • Bike Selection

    Hello xBHP friends

    I am from new delhi.

    I am curently riding a Discover 125 (2006) model.

    I need help to know that which bike i should buy because its like a multiple choice question exam situation for me that which bike to choose and which should be good for me. But i dont want to go below 125cc.

    There are sooooooooo.....many bike to choose from but it make the decesion more complex.

    I am a student and do a lot of city riding (from GK2 - karol bagh - GTB nagar and back to GK2) and want buy a bike (finally both my mom and pocket agreed)

    Although my home is very near to metro but i prefer bike because by the i will reach my destination using metro i would be there already (even @ 40kmph) and more over one can see the cause and effect of increasing popuLATION on metro. Very Clearly.

    Please Help.

      Since you have not mentioned any kind of mileage requirements, budget and your height, weight, and preferences, the chances that we would be able to recommend you a bike properly are very bleak. All we know that your next bike should be more than 125cc AND that your usage is ~50odd km/day inside city.

      So let me tell you that, given the above criteria, you can choose any one from a total of 95 distinct bike models (Starting from the 60k Bajaj Discover 150 to the 35odd lac Harley Davidson Ultra Classic Electra Glide) currently sold in India (not counting variants). So best of luck with that.
      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.

        Good one Antz!

        Coming to the OP, since you are upgrading from a 125, you can look for options in the 180-220cc range - that can help narrow down your search considerably.

        Biking is not about how many Km/h you put on your Speedo. It's about how many miles you put on your Odo. Ride Safe, Ride Long!
