            FZ25 would be my pick. Great looking bike with a lot of punch and refinement. Matches all of your requirements.

                    Fz primarily has air cooling, assisted by oil cooler. Basically air cooling only with a gimmicky description.

                        Frankly, if I were in your shoes I would just test ride both and pick the one that makes me feel happy and connected to. On paper comparison you will always find something or the other better over the other bike Apache does offer few gizmos that FZ lacks and FZ offers few things that Apache lacks. At the end of the day they are both very potent machines in their own nature. Just go by the gut feeling of which one gives more satisfaction being parked in your garage.

                          For commuting Rtr200/fz25 makes more sense.
                          For weekend long rides obviously RS200.

                              Apache 200 or pulsar 200ns or Yamaha fz25

                              My riding will be daily city riding, occasional highway rides.

                              Main concerns will be stress free ownership and a little bit of milage 😅
