For pillions GS will be more comfortable than uni in longer rides. My friends have both these bikes. Recently they went for a trip with CBZ xtreme, uni and GS . They found GS pllion seat is more comfortable of the three. For riders both GS and uni will give equal comfort. One will love the riding posture of GS compared to Uni as it is slightly rear set and has a linkage type gear shifter for smoother gear shifts. Also GS has got overdrive 6th gear and the engine will be less strained in highways.

I think, by this time you are in a dilemma to go for Unicorn or GS150. To clear that, lemme remind you the difference in service network between Suzuki and Honda.
As your friend needs to commute inter-city too, the Honda gains an edge here, even though both the bikes are better than each other in different aspects

GS150R/Xtreme must do....
May have suggested Uni, but uni might not give you proper Knee recess for your height...me too beign 6ft felt it.
Xtreme and GS150R give you proper knee recess...ofcourse GS150R has edge over Xtreme with its 6th gear & refined engine.....rest all features on GS are that one needs to be lured.Last edited by riazmomin; 08-08-2009, 07:49 PM.2007 - Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme

Considering the requirement and Budget, I would look at the Yamaha Gladiator SS with a regular handlebar (the SS & RS have 5 clutch plates as opposed to the other models that have 4 but the handlebar is a little low), the Hero Honda Acheiver (yes, it is still sold in rural areas). GS150 R is a good choice but I don't think it can be bought for 65K! and also gotta check if Suzuki service center is available nearby!Comment

The GS got a more composed and relaxing ride for pillion than uni and its refinement and 6box shift is just amazing. The opinion is based on my personal experience. As long as you don't go for traffic light GP's or performance runs(even that could be done with a smile) and if don't have big pocket for bigger guys like P220 or Zma its a better deal in 150cc commuters

The GS is the bestin the comfort category...the Uni comes second....
As many hav said..the Uni has proved itself....one of the most refined engines and slick gear box....
the GS has also the same things....and for long travels both are too good....
I have ridden both the bikes extensively...and of course my Pulsar..too...
Also as experts pointed out...look out for service centres for easy access....
do not want to be stuck in a highway....with a cut clutchwire....
I recommend....GS first and Uni second.....Comment

To that problem, cut off Both Honda & Suzuki. Honda Service Centers are the most arrogant and pathetic of the lot to get anything done. They don't have many of them either. Suzuki does not have even as many SC's as Honda but I just hope they do a better job than the Honda guys with the spares & service.Originally posted by Guru_007 View PostAlso as experts pointed out...look out for service centres for easy access....

Suzuki get's most of their spares made with the same suppliers who make them for Maruti Suzuki. Also, there is a Maruti showroom &/or service center in almost every small town. Suzuki is giving motorcycle dealerships to those existing Maruthi showroom people at many places. Whether you are aware or not, many places have got a Suzuki motorcycle showroom & service center already... check your nearest town now.
I still suggest you to look at the Hero Honda Acheiver... or Yamaha Gladiator that'd meet all the requirements including the price and mileage. The Gladi has a good soft seat, light clutch, big bike feel and very good handling.Comment

Its been 8 months since this post is up. You have not decided yet "YOU GOT TO KIDDING ME".
Buy a Honda Shine with Disk brakes. It has good pickup with 60 kml milage. Its only about 55k on road.Yamaha FZ16 - 2009 to 2011
