    This thread is the exact reason why I say this is a bad time for buying bikes budgeted within 70K - 85K.

    P200 Expected.
    FZ-(Y?) Expected.
    RTR 180 To Be Launched.

    I think the FZ suits perfectly for big men over 6 ft. This is Bunny (from BI) testing the FZ.

    I don't think it looks small in front of him. Also I have two friends who are well over 6ft and 90+ owning FZs and saying the knee recesses are actually extremely comfortable and riding position being very good. Their only issue was with the seat which is hard and not spongy enough.

      Many thanks to everybody. I had a test drive on all the bikes -

      Karizma, Fz-16, RTR, Unicorn and RE Electra 5s and Thunderbird. But, somehow amongst all these bikes my mind got stuck on Electra 5s and I'll probably get it soon.

      Thanks again for the valued info.
