      You can look at FZ 25 and RTR 200. Both are good bikes.
      With FZ 25 you can easily cruise around 80-100 kmph on the highway. And mileage wise it is friendly on the pocket.
      While the RTR gets you ABS, derailed console, and smooth motor with great handling.

      If you want to enjoy power, go for Dominar.
      Even, I'm confused between the RTR and Dominar as I am looking forward to get a bike in near future.
      Ride to live, ride to enjoy.
      Moment by moment, life passes by!

          If you are serious about biking.. go for dominar abs eyes closed.. it cannot be trumped by any other bike in any department specially RE bikes..abs, led lights which are superb..slipper clutch though too useful in daily life or touring.. excellent engine.. the only downer is mileage and weight..but weight does not seem to be an issue since you've already considered RE.. but no other bike has a better mileage in the segment except apache 200 and fz25..

            +1 for Dominar. It seems the most logical choice that comes under your budget. It has all the bells and whistles to keep you safe on the road and is powerful enough to keep you happy for years to come.

            Second choice should be the CBR250, with ABS. If you can digest the old looks; it is the daddy of quarter liter bikes. Yes, it is aged, but that age has proven its strengths and capabilities.

            Go for a RE only and only if you want a RE. There is no other logical reason for buying one.
            I would like to thank my legs for supporting me, my arms for being always by my side and my fingers; I could always count on them.
