Re: Suggest me my first bike
i decided to go into detail yesterday with the production rumours of GS 150R. i called up their factory unit, then their office in New Delhi where it was confirmed that the bike produciton has been temporarily stopped and there is no news of when it would restart. They might be coming with new models in Feb 2016 but in which category is also not clear.
Krishna77--thanks for the suggestion. i happened to looked at the Yamaha SZ-RR ver 2 on yamaha site. The bike looks good in specs, is cheap compared to its class bikes. Ownership reviews of old version are good with minor issues. i need to check with dealer if these are avl here (w.r.t what coolharsh91 has pointed out).
whatever i have read in the ownership forums is that japanese brand bikes are much better in engine refinement, reliability, maintenance and performance (both engine and overall perf) as compared to Bajaj. That is one of the main reasons i am inlcined towards Suzuki/Honda/Yamaha. pls correct me if i am wrong here (since i never owned a bike so my exp is just based on reading others experiences).
i went over Unicorn CB 160 reviews also. It looks like 150cc unicorn was better in performance than 160cc one. The 160cc one is lighter and the ownership reviews are mixed. can someone throw some light on Unicorn 160 performance, comfort level and rideability.
i happened to look at the upcoming hornet too. I am not sure whether it will be much different as Unicorn but little skeptical because it hasnt been out yet and there are no reviews as well about it.
folks, any other bikes that i can consider?
