    Need a bike around 2lakh

    Age-28
    Height-5'8"
    Weight-85
    Hi currently riding a Fazer V2. Planning to upgrading for a bit higher power. My rides includes city on weekdays. Long tours on weekends,and planning for very long tour around 1000km once I have a good bike. I like more fairing bikes , don't like naked and crusier much. But if bike will be good I can consider. As I am planning for longer rides a more reliable engine will be good which I can trust on highways. If any better bike is coming in near future I can hold on for a bit.Will appreciate your help guys.

          I think you should for dominar 400. Though it is heavy in terms of weight but for rides its the best. The engine runs happily in 90-110 kmph. Best power cruiser with good seating for long tours.
          Highly stable on highways and flickable in city too.
          Test ride the ABS version.
          Its around 1.84 lakhs on road.
          Hope this helps!
          Ride safe.

              Will a Bajaj engine be trustable for long tours and I saw a long term review of it he was saying the sound has changed .

                Apache 310 seems to be a good option for you.
                Also, since you are already riding Fazer V2, Fazer 25 should also be a good upgrade for you.
                A bike on the road is worth two in the shed.

                  I was thinking that. I didn't find any review of Fazer 25 here.

                          Even kawasaki h2s are blowing up the engine buddy. If someone messes with the engine then that's not the responsibility of manufacturers... & Now its going off topic So lets just leave this decision... Doesn't make any sense here!!.

                              What about Mahindra Mojo? I know you don't like naked type much (something I share too). But given you were somewhat flexible to reconsider. As you mentioned Build Quality / Reliability and long distance Tour Capability as your utmost priority, Mahindra Mojo has proven to have excelled in all of these. Heck, it even has a large (21l) fuel tank .Do your research and do keep it as a consideration.

                              P.S. Mahindra's Two-Wheeler Service Chain might play a spoilsport; do check in your town.
