Hi Guys,
So I am looking forward to buy a new Bike for which I can spend upto 1.10L Onroad (Max). The problem is that non of the bikes available within my budget seems perfect for me.
i) Pulsar 220 : As far as performance is concerned, P220 is really good and a VFM offering but it is too common in hometown so I don't feel like buying one.
ii) Pulsar 200NS : This is a Great Bike but it has few issues like 1) The Saree Guard is directly bolted on the Swingarm. So, its not safe to ride with a Female Pillion who prefer sitting sideways as she won't be able to rest her feet comfortably. 2) In P200NS Ownership Thread, many owners complained that even if one retains the stock rear mudgurd, the bike still splashes mud during rainy seasons.
iii) Apache RTR 180 ABS/160 (Rear Disc) : Now, I really like this Bike but am not too sure if its gonna suit me(I'm 6.1 ft). BTW, I recently saw an RTR 160 & RTR 180 (both White) parked back to back in a Tvs Showroom and to me RTR 160 looked slightly taller then RTR 180. Is it because the Wheelbase of 160 is shorter then 180?
iv) 2014 ZMA : I think I'll give the new ZMA a miss, though the specsheet says 19 BHP I didn't felt any major difference during test ride.
I'd really appreicate if the members here help me to pick the right Bike for me.
Thankyou
