      Got me dazed for a while .

      125cc - Gladiator - Refined 5 speed mill, easy to manoeuvre, good ride.
      150cc - Unicorn/FZ16 -Torquey and smooth to ride, reliable & comfortable
      >150cc - Karizma - effortless 223cc Honda powerplant, ergonomic seating.

      -ve's : All of the above have only toe shifters and will eat into your formal leather shoes~!

              Praveen, first come back buddy. We will discuss in detail which bike to buy.

              BTW, you never said anything about your Yamaha Gladiator and what happened to your Libero???
