Hi Friends,
I ride a 2010 Honda Unicorn 150 and have not had much issues with the bike till recently. I have done 80K+ kms till date on it and only since last couple of months have started getting some problems in it.
I plan to change my bike, but not able to shortlist which one to go for. I drive daily to work and total distance I drive is around 70+ kms per day. Unicorn was very good for those drives, but now I plan to buy any other bike which can still give me a comfortable ride in city traffic.
Most of my riding is within the city and only about a small stretch (approx 12 kms one side) where I can find open roads. Here are some of my preferences:
1. Comfortable for long daily commute in Bangalore traffic. (Should not end up with back pain etc.
)
2. Prefer bikes above 150cc.
3. Fuel efficiency of around 45kmpl is good enough.
4. Occasionally will have my wife / parent at pillion. So it should be comfortable for them for short rides atleast.
5. Budget : Around 1 lakh, can extend a bit uptown around 1.5 lakh max.
6. Good ride quality (tyres etc.)
I am inclined towards Honda as have been using the Unicorn since last 8+ years and have had not much issues with it. But looking for a equally good upgrade. Had Hornet 160 in mind but not decided on it.
Would be happy fr Any help or advice. Might have missed putting up something in my requirements ( as it's my first post). Plz let me know if anything.
Cheers.
