thnks

@outworldly maniac

Thnks for ur advice but lemme clear u abt wat i mean by mileage.....its better to clear everythng abt wat i require wat i need.........dis will help me in getting more precise and accurate help from u guys..........
My CBZ has no self start so first thing i do require is this.....
secondly its mileage is sme where below 35 or even worse wen ridden hard.....
i got 2 knw dat fz cn gimme atleast 40 or better if my commuter side on weekdays @ workdays drives her like dat and it wud drop to my current normal CBZ figures only upon riding it hard on weekends with my frends n all......
also the vibrations nw do irritate me a bit as after test riding fz the level of refinement was way better than my current machine........
and i luv those wide tyres only because i luv to corner or get on to roads with twists so handling and tyre grips r important and i m happy with the ride quality trade off with handling........
Mileage for me is only getting 45 normally and upon sme hard driving around 35 or so.....wich is why i m trying to upgrade my first luv because it requires constant attention of service staff to get it right.....i get max 40 wich is par for her........
And ZMA is my ultimate machine for nw and if i get it i knw 4 sure dat my fuel bills will make me feel like hell bcoz my commuter side would be dead once i start that 225 cc and open the throttle........the engine sound pik up and rush wud clearly take me......2 b really true to myself i don't hve a nice job neither the self control to respect this machine.........
@ N-o-v-i-c-e
outworldy maniac is simply right in saying dat fz is nt comparable to zma.....
i don't need a test drive of zma even nw as i knw wat its capable off.......the overdrive 24 hr test and the way it sprints the way it luks and a short drive of my frends zma only confirmed me dat she means business rite from d word go......
@ tazz
my current 150 cc is just getting on higher side of maintainence like frequent tuning for better average wich dips below 30 even wen not ridden hard...no self start wich is a pain bcoz of foot rest position (i hve broken mine twice) ......d vibrations and refinement issues r a bit bothering nw......all of wich add to higher maintainence wich is hurtingme nw.........as for unicorn d luks r a big turn off to me......sorry to all uincorn owners but for me its styling doesn't work

@Devilpulsarian
thnks sir for ur advice........

@ meet

ok go ahead and take whatever you want...... i guess if someone has made up his mind,,,, no use telling him anything
i mean to say if ur heart wants a FZ go for a FZ..... atleast u ll be content if it satisfies ur requirements
and also self responsible coz u its UR CHOICE,,,,,,

cheers

I think there's not much difference except the top end portion of FZ16 when compared to ZMA(actually not comparing ZMA with FZ16 or FZ16 beats ZMA in power or nothing like that)... i own an FZ and had done a lot of touring in my bike(and the longest was 1200km in 3 days-440km in one day with a pillion)... i don't feel any probs like backache or any others with the ride... even though FZ definitely don't have that much top end and many says FZ's is not a tourer... it's an awesome bike man with a much better handling and comfort package even than a ZMA(my opinion)...

And ur second point... why selling a 150cc for another 150cc... +1 for that... @topic starter... bro if ur bike is not in good condition... repair the bike or else go for a better power or cc...

my option for u will be RTR 180/R15(if u have the budget)... even though R15 is not good in heavy traffic... in my opinion every bike is for every thing... but i say it's the rider that matters...

i respect ur opinion
yeah buddy comfort and all are individual perceptions,,,,,,
good to hear it suits u

but in power,,,, torque etc zma is amazing
but then some would say .... ur comparing bruce lee with someone
but i say for some 7 k more u get a much better upgrade
both are diff bikes
i love FZ myself but feel its highly priced

anyways 95 kmph is quite good speed man
u can cruise nicely

but i think he has decided
as i told.... go with ur heart
enjoy FZ bro

sure bro... i liked u suggestions.... i didn't compared the power or torque of ZMA with FZ16... definitely ZMA is the best... i said about the handling and short gearing and low end grunt which haven't noticed in other bikes... frankly... but don't give ZMA the role of bruce lee and FZ16 a role of someone... there's not that much a difference...

@topic starter... anyways test ride and decide bro...

meet dude
What in the hell do you think u r doing?
People are trying to help u here and u r being rude to them
Atleast so some respect dude
If u r crazy abt FZ.....then just get it
Why ask?

what's the rudeness ur telling about??? didn't find any...

please help

guys, i am going to own a new bike...
my dad suggested me Apache RTR 160... but i've heard about some reliability issues with it...
i suggested him fz... he agreed...

but now the real confusion is about the model...
FZ-16 or FZ-S???
i would love to own FZ-16 but colour combination and the digital meter of FZ-S is more appealing...

and i've seen few pics of Fazor 150... that is being road tested...cool... i loved that bike too...

please help me out...

Hey if you liked the new fazer, wait some time..road tests are on and launch should not be far away...just enquire at dealership...better to ask the manager/owner than to ask the staff..I have had this experience..sales staff will say what they want..but senior people are better informed..

where is the rudeness there bro?? i m sorry if i m unable to clear my self or if sme words r not taken in rite way but rude???

@outworldly maniac

Sir,
I guess I cudn't explain my needs and requirements properly and appropriately wich has caused so much confusion and nw m really confused but i guess its all my fault bcoz i didn't clear myself at all in my needs :-( M really sorry sir if i ws rude to u as posted by shrestaz.....nvr wanted 2 b rude to any1......

So A Big Sorry to every1 here as m unable to provide u wid rite details 4 d bike and since sme ppl found me being rude the last resort is just to keep evry thng very short and precise

Wich 1 wud all d respected Bikers recommend here to me regarding following:
Good Mileage (above or = 40)
Nice Ride but really good handling
Comfortable
Self Start
Reliable
Good Looking
Tubeless Tyres
Easy to maintain
Good City Performance

HH Hunk, CBZ Xtreme, TVS RTR160, FZ-16 or S, HONDA Unicorn (No Pulsars Plzz!!)
Any other suggestions r welcme!!!

hey dont call me sir........ we all are brothers here.......
and i never called u rude or something
did i say anything
then why this????

by rude the guy i think meant ki ur not replying i think,,,,, rest i dont know the intention but i think that might be it


and i was just telling that if you like the fz go for the FZ......
nothing else brother,,,,,,,,
coz there are mental things involved
like coz of some less mileage u took unicorn suppose and not FZ
then u may feel like unhappy for sometime etc,,,,,,
if u ask me,,,,, i am kinda person if my heart says FZ then its gotta be FZ
u need to be emotionally attached to ur bike ,,,,,,,,
thats what makes a biker in the real sense

and again the requirements u mentioned except the mileage tell FZ.... and i seriously dont know bout the mileage of FZ........
but the all your other requirements match

i felt like u are again describing FZ..... lol

ask for the mileage to FZ owner in the ownership thread,,,,,,,,, and if the say 40 or +
def then there is no doubt,,,,,,,,,

and if they say 35,,,,, still go for it,,,,,,,,, coz ur heart wants it and i dont think that 5kmpl matters a lot........ u can manage it for ur love like ur do for ur GF rite
lol just a joke,,,,,,, if mileage is serious concern,,,,,,,,,,,,,
still ask FZ owners!!

I don't know much about CBZ-X or Hunk as I've not ridden either of them, so I'll just compare the other 3 in each aspect (highest to lowest).

Good Mileage - Unicorn, RTR, FZ (I've heard many FZ owners complain that they get very bad mileage like 35kmpl even with proper riding while some others claim to get 40+).

Nice Ride but really good handling - RTR, FZ, Uni

Comfortable (for long rides) - FZ, Uni, RTR

Self Start - Nothing to compare here... all 3 have SS

Reliable - Depends on how you maintain your bike... all 3 are reliable machines

Good Looking - (My personal opinion) RTR, Uni, FZ (I don't like naked styling)

Tubeless Tyres - Only FZ has these... not RTR and Uni!

Easy to maintain - Uni, then both RTR and FZ (because RTR and FZ don't have full chain-guard, so will need to clean and lube the chain once in 500km or so)

Good City Performance - FZ, RTR, Uni

Good Overall Performance (I'm adding this ) - RTR, FZ, Uni

Note: This is purely just my opinion!

my suggestion would be a Fz or RTR..
now it all depends upon your personal likings from this two..
both are on the same lines i suppose... RTR would be much faster, my guess..
