    Help Choosing a bike in 250cc segment

    Hello all,
    I am new in XBHP. I own a xcd 125cc. Now its time to get updated, so i was thinking of buying 250cc FZ25 . The bike looks great and has good reviews too. But my concern is it doesn't have ABS. I was just astonished to see that it has no option for ABS even if the Government has made mandatory from april 2018. Still they dont care to launch with an ABS variant. So please suggest what should i do. Should i wait upto april 2018 or buy Apche RTR 200 with ABS . But i dont really like the TVS they had vibes and engine are not so smooth . Same with Bajaj. Please suggest me what i should do?

        Hi Somdeb, have you decided on something?
        A bike on the road is worth two in the shed.

          AFAIK, RTR 200 is not yet available with ABS. There are only 2 options available in 250 cc segment now.

          1. FZ 25, Yamaha
          2. TNT 25, Benelli


          Benelli is a good bike but service is questionable, especially with the financial crisis that DSK is facing.
