    hmmm... you have discounted the three most sought after bikes so easily. But then, what other options do you have?

    Go ahead and buy an RTR 180. Take it to a guy like Joel and make it a 200 CC. All your criterion would suffice - cost, cc, performance, rear disc....

    All the best.

      How?

      @Bhargava and @Hydbiker,

      Do you mean to say the bike should be port polished to increase the displacement? Is that a good thing to experiment on a brand new one?

      I feel its like performing a bypass on a heart that is functionally normally!

        Keep this point in ming before U finalise something bcoz already FZ is undethroned king in 150cc segment with its naked styling & fitments...Just imagine if same FZ comes with bigger heart & bulging bhp's to take on competition by Storm.
        Thanks a lot for information, but it has rear disc ?
        -------------------------------
        @ I cant go for after market modifications specially with engine and brakes as it will reduce the service of bike. petrolhead22 is right.

        Thanks

          I waited for new karizma ZMR for more than a year but got highly disappointed because the power is same as old one[Fi & other things doesnt matter to me], I cant go for p220 coz of bajaj engine's reliability and existing customer negative feedback about the bike, also I dont want to buy R15 coz of its engine capacity [only 150 CC] and the other bikes which are good doesnt have rear disc brakes [DRUM brakes really sucks after a year, burden on pocket to maintain drum brakes after year ,whether you buy most expensive linear for drum brakes].

          Please tell me what should i do ? because as I found there is no existing bike available in my criteria ...
          Should I wait for Auto expo for announcement of new bike and then again wait for their launch ?

          PLease tell me any news from Autoexpo, Is there any upcoming launch as per my requirement ??

            No! No! No!
            If you're not planning to take over The Doctor's M1 in near future then sadly there's new for you at the Auto Expo!

            So you're dead left with the options u already crossed out.

            I would suggest you to take a Test Ride of ''All'' the bikes you crossed out or you hadnt considered.
            It would make more sense if you reject them after actually feeling what didnt click for you rather than rejecting them comparing their cc's and disc brakes on spec sheet's.

            And in my personal openion ur very much confused with the very few option which you have.
            So its my humble request, get a Test Drive of R15,P220 (Carbed) and Zmr!

              he's confuzed i guess.. which is quite understandable.. but what is not understandable is the crossing out of all the best options he has in his budget
