    I suggest you wait for more BS6 launches from HMSI.

    Hornet 160R and Xblade are yet to be launched in BS6. What remains to be seen is whether Honda will scrap these models and introduce something new like CB190R or will upgrade these models.

    If they choose to upgrade, definitely new colors, gear position indicator and engine kill, and who knows may be a new engine with ACG starter.

    Wait a few more weeks and decide. Don't hurry.

      Thanks for all your suggestions. I am adding Pulsar 200 NS BS6 also as I was advised by Bajaj showroom people that its more VFM than P220. Also I found the ride and comfort almost similar to P220. What would be your opinion

        Both are good bikes. Go for the one which you are comfortable with.
        Now BS6 version is more powerful than the BS4 ones. Also presence of 6th gear will make it an effortless highway machine. Just go for it. [emoji106]

          Ns 200 is the only bike,which have increase in its power,every other bike have lost some power.nd bro ns 200 suspensions are bit hard than p220.
          P220 is very good on highways as well in citys,on highways due to its bigger windsheild,wind blast doesnt affect you much,but then ns 200 have 6 th gear which is an added advantage on highways.
          P220 lowend pickup is superb for city,ns 200 lags a bit here.

            Thanks for all the suggestion. Went to have a test drive of the p220 but got the bs4 2019 version only. Is the bs6 model launched? Also the salesperson suggested to wait for the dominar 250 too as it would be priced reasonably. What's ypir opinion?

              BS6 model will be available soon, if you got BS4, you could ask for a good price discount.

              Dominar 250 will be around 1.5 L ex-showroom.

                    Thanks to all your suggestions. I have booked the Pulsar 200 NS BS6 (White). On road cost : Rs.1.63 lac (got just 30k for my 2018 TVS Victor ). Only issue I have is the bike looks a bit overstyled for a 31Y aged office goer like me . Considered the dominar 250 too but it costs 2.1 lac onroad.

                        Wise decision. NS200 (SOHC, Simple forks, main stand) is more practical than D250.

                                Insurance from outside costs around 1k less so not that much cost effective. Accessories for Rs.850 are side mirrors, stand and crash guard. Apart from that there are 3rd party accessories (not official) like back tray (like Himalayan), 3D dominar decals, handle protection, etc...

                                Also which would be the best color? currently available at black, red and white. Confused on color.
