Hi Guys,

Its time for me to think about getting my first motorcycle and i need your help and suggestion.

My very first bike was a second hand honda activa which i rode for almost 2 years, but then i had to sell it since it was giving me a lot of trouble.

Now i want to get myself a bike, basically to common to and from work.
I would travel about 20-25 kms everyday.
Currently i travel by bus or auto to work.
In past two months the bus fare have been gone up twice, so i was thinking travelling by a bike would be actually cheaper!!!
I would have to pay Rs. 44 if i travel by bus everyday(return journey). If auto, then almost Rs. 130 for one side.

So please suggest me, a good looking bike, not too expensive, with good mileage bike.

Yesterday i went to check out few bikes

1. Yamaha fz 16 - priced@81000
2. Honda Unicorn 160- priced@85000
3. Suxuki gixxer - priced@87000

Other bikes which i saw were pulsar 150, discover 150 also fz version 2.0 but its a little expensive for me(priced@99000).

I was actually also considering pulsar 135, but i heard tht i shud avoid bajaj bikes, since they kind of give problems after 2-3 years (i dont know how true is that!!).

I heard tht fz16 is being discontinued from production, so will that be a problem if i get one???

Any inputs about the make and lasting of the bikes, coz i intend to keep it for a long time and not just change it in a few years.

So guys, any inputs, any suggestion, anything at all from you experienced guys will be very very helpful.

Btw i am from mumbai.

Thanks,
Vinay.
