for unicorn the max payload is 170kg, it is one of the most comfortable bikes, but no match with performance of RTR180 or even RTR160.
why dont u consider the p220S, price is similar to RTR180

Thank you for your reply fayad555,
Yeah, I now understand that the RTR isn't for me. I will look at the Karizma.
My cousin has a Pulsar 220F. I had it for a day, I was seriously put off by its vibrations and lack of refinement. The seat too was hard. On straight-line, the bike has good road presence but weaving through traffic becomes tough.
I mean no offence, but I have a bias against Bajaj bikes and their lack of quality.

Thanks

@ threadstarter....unicorn is a cool bike ...go for it if u wanna...little maintainability...nice mileage...good power....but it does not provide the thrill of a racer...its a nice little kid bike...(no offense meant my personal opinion...)...

now looking at other bikes in the same catagory (price range) u have the CBZ extreme, the hunk, the stunner, and the pulsar all of which have better load carrying capacity than the rtr(whose max payload capacity is frankly shocking...)so look at all these bikes before u make a decision...

Thank you k2cool 87,
I will be looking at options like Karizma and Hunk.

It is quite funny how the bike behaves with a pillion... The Front fork bottoms out easily and the Rear shocks aren't too good with a pillion, but it's really good when ridden without a pillion... According to the spec payload is 130 Kgs (65+65) only... Unicorn is a good choice but i would advise you to go in for a heavier bike like the P220 or a Karizma or even a bullet if you like it! All the best and keep us posted....

Thanks for your reply shelton jh,

I would love to have a Bullet except for the fact that Bullets require high maintenance and I can't afford to have my bike blowing a fuse or leaking oil at the middle of my journey.
I am not interested in the Pulsar range.

Go for the GS150R,its a good rounded package!it will suit all your needs and looks neat too,its super refined too! IMO its the best VFM bike in india and its not common like the karizmas,apaches,pulsars etc!
