      Just to clear some things out.

      You say you are 176 cms n a few pounds extra. My friend is 6'4 and 120 kilos. All bikes except the FZ, eliminator, ZMA and Enfield would look puny on him.

      But what you are looking for is best matched by P200. And the news about a new model coming out is true, the only question is when. You say at the max by May. Hmm...Its a bad time for buying bikes .

        As per ur requirement i belive u have Zeroed urself on Pulsars........
        So buy what u like......If u dont wanna play the waiting Game....
        U have more choices......Hunk......Xtreme......
        Else end up in going for a Twin Spark RE...... It will be unique for u .....


        I think its so tough for the current production bikes to be reliable for more than 5-6 years

            Because there is news of the new pulsar 200 coming in as well as the new RTR 180 coming within the next 2 months !

            Any of these two would suit the bill for you.

            As for the current bikes available according to your requirements I would say go for the RTR eFi

              i heard that rtr efi has lots of issues...........will a tvs product be reliable

              after 1year the bike looses its charm
