              Why not consider the Unicorn 150, it has good pillion comfort, It can travel places, and for weeday commuting in Blr traffic, what else is better.
              If not, go for FZ-V2.0.

                I had similar requirements from my ride, and i got fazer version 2.0
                To be honest, if i didn't have soft corner for Yamaha, then I would have got gixxer. Gixxer yamaha and apache all look good and perform well in city.
                Power wise Apache beats the other two. So if you are power thirst just go for Apache.

                If you are looking to save money then gixxer should be your choice. Looks are subjective but new fz colors look stunning.

                  I dont get it. Why is everyone suggesting the RTR200? And based on what? Preliminary reviews by Youtube channels and Biking websites? Shouldnt we wait for a more comprehensive real world stress test results?

                      Yamaha FZ-FI.
                      The upcoming Pulsar NS200 FI if you can wait for it, or the Pulsar AS200.

                        Is the Pulsar NS200 FI confirmed?

                            Wat you guys think about Hornet 160r ? Can I go for it ?
                            I don't see anyone suggesting it !! Is it a bad bike ?

                              No bro, not a bad bike at all, the thing is that young people like you and me (in their early 20s), tend to opt for stylish, aggressive and sharp looks, whereas the Hornet is more of a power commuter. The looks are plain and simple. The engine is undeniably a gem coz its a Honda. Finally its up to you, if you like the looks, go for it. For more info visit the motorcycle ownership section to find out more from the owners.
                              Take test rides and then decide.
                              I would like to thank my legs for supporting me, my arms for being always by my side and my fingers; I could always count on them.
