With same Calcium (read FI unit)

so let's put it this way that stunner fi does justify its price to a certain extent.. saying coz has introduced pgm-fi in its bikes for the 1st time plus the brand also has some weight (ref to quality!)

So now the list looks like this
1- FZ-16/S & Unicorn
2- Pulsar 180
3- Stunner
4- RTR 160/180

You might also wanna wait for the faired version of the FZ aka the Fazer, releasing next month.

Heavily overpriced.....
Better machines availble in the same price band....
Weigh your own prioritees wrt this bike....!



Yups, true....
I would love all the bikes, including the most selling 97ccs to be FI
But you cant price your disc pads at exorbitant prices wrt the competition..
You cant price your FI at exorbitant prices wrt the market...
You cant take unnecessary money from the market just because people worship your brand...
You are negating the very concept of 'Engineering'...!

That list is Skewed man.... You are mixing two different classes of bikes....

Stunner is something which is on the top of the Commuter class and Unicorn, RTR160, Pulsar 180 is the entry of the performance class.....


I had a fitting reply to this.... which involved pricing and poor chrome jobs, poor service, and cracking forks.... ! but I shall reserve it for future use....

:Out of this thread:

Pricing? We want VFm products but we cry even if a product is priced affordable.Funny

Poor chrome jobs? Which Honda/Yamaha/TVS whichever brand u worship has chrome? Any chrome job would rust if not taken care of,more so in coastal areas.

Poor service? Which company provides consistent service in India?

All the 3 above points are subjective and un-related. Just that u didnt get anything else.

Cracking forks? Yes, Bajaj is not Honda or Yamaha who are manufacturing bikes for decades and who fine tuned their products among the decades.

The 200's forks did have a DESIGN FLAW . And all the 200's were called back and forks changed under warranty,as soon as the first case was reported and new forks were designed. AFAIK,that was just one Blue 200, belonging to a friend on mine in Ludhiana,PB. He is a full time stunter if u didnt know,and as it was a design flaw,the forks gave way during one of his stoppies.

Sad that u still keep barking "Broken forks"

@MODS : I know this post is OT, but just doing my part in spreading awareness to the ignorant. Delete it if u want to clean up this thread

P.S : My reply not necessarily for the poster(whose text i ve quoted) but for other people who would go by his myths!

Ironically, even I have those 'involvements'....
But probably our targeted manufacturers are different.........!


Anyways, just for your reference...

Engineering is the creative application of scientific principles to design or develop structures, machines, apparatus, or manufacturing processes, or works utilizing them singly or in combination; or to construct or operate the same with full cognizance of their design; or to forecast their behavior under specific operating conditions; all as respects an intended function, economics of operation and safety to life and property

@rishirazdan56 : If your mileage requirement is around 45kmpl then close your eyes and go for Unicorn. If mileage is not a worry then go for effzee!

Yeah... after seeing in that prespective it sure does look skewed...

While surfing the previous editions of Bike India they have mentioned about a new Unicorn.. some testing with Wide Tyres.. Any Updates on that??

^^^^
I don't how many are waiting for that since how many days/months ...

well test rode FZ16, Unicorn and Stunner

FZ16 is in a diff league.. punchy, smooth and felt great...
Unicorn had a crisp ride.. felt as if i can depend on it.. only in grave circumstances it may let me down..
Stunner was more of the run of the mill ride.. it had a good sporty position.. that's all..

Now confused between FZ16 & Unicorn..
Yamaha dealer gave assurance of a 45+ mileage..

Guys give your verdict..

Expect the mileage to be in the region of 35 to 40, not more than that.

FZ-16 is definitely more fun to ride than the Unicorn&looks way better too. I am uncomfortable with the extra upright handle of the Unicorn&GS (or is it because I ride an R15). Anyways, FZ is fresh&new in the market, whereas Uni is not. So it would be a good choice for the next 3-4 years atleast.
On the other hand, the faired version of the FZ a.k.a. Fazer is coming next month, so wouldn't you wanna wait for that?
If you still like the naked look, the FZ is being offered at a discount of Rs.2500. Go ahead!

If you are asked to choose between Meena Kumari and Katrina Kaif today...!


Take your pick....!


Expect FZs mileage to be around 40kmpl on road..!
