Thanx Guyz...

Thankx for your replies. As u avised, I have shortlisted 4 bikes.

1. HH Hunk.
2. Dazzler
3. GS 150
4. CB Uni

The list is in the order of my priority. Hunk seems to be ok in all. I mean, there is nothing really bad about it.

Dazzler may jump to position 1, if it can outperform Hunk. Actually, I prefer it to hunk, but as its performance figures are still unknown, I ranked it at position 2.

GS is at the third position because Suzuki is poor on dealer network and service.

CB Uni is at the last because I feel it a bit under powered. Owners say that its out of breath after 60-70 and aloso, it looks a bit oudated to me.

Now things seems to be clearer. thanx...

I think it will, but let the results come out and our meanderings shall be verified

Running out of breath at 60-70

the Unicorn runs strong and can sit at 90kmph all day w/o breaking a sweat

Dazzler should suit you best IMO

**krates** · 05-22-2010, 08:20 PM

if you remove the mileage part and can suffice with the mileage of 40 on driving around 70-90 then you should consider the fz.. it has bit of everything you want else the RTR 160 change it tyres though

Sorry... Dont misunderstand my words. I didnt mean that Uni is uncomfortable at that speed or anything like that. But my friends (who own Unis) say that after 70 kmph its rather sluggish or the climb from 60 to 90 takes a bit too long. Thats all.

No buddy.. i cant live with such a milege.

Moreover, I dont think FZ will meet my needs. Major reason is that I will be using my bike only about 10% in cities. Then why should I go for a city bike...?

**vrugonnab** · 05-22-2010, 08:48 PM

I believe Pulsar 135LS suits your requirements. I have done almost 3k kms on this one, it's a brilliant performer and on highways i'm sure the mileage will be 55+. And in 60-90 range.. engine is really at it's best. One would simply love revving the engine in this speed range. Handling is spot on. Only concern could be that bike looks small.

**krates** · 05-22-2010, 10:11 PM

then get the Pulsar 220 really dude.. it is one of best highway bike...

1. HH Hunk : Gives you the best of both worlds. Excellent refinement as well as decent enough pull.
2. Dazzler : On paper sounds as gud as Hunk if not less.
3. GS 150 :
4. CB Uni : Rather HUNK (again)

1. HH Hunk : Gives you the best of both worlds. Excellent refinement as well as decent enough pull.

2. Dazzler : On paper sounds as gud as Hunk if not less. If interested wait for the ownership reviews.

3. GS 150 : I personally feel this bike's a boon for highways. And if you are in a tier 1 or 2 city service too wont be an issue. Rest, you always have Castrol Bike Zones

4. CB Uni : Dated!!! If Dazzler is in your list why this one? Except for the price I dont find anything better in this one.

P.S : Ever thought about Extreme? Its right up there with Hunk minues the muscles ofcourse

**vikram kumar** · 05-24-2010, 04:05 PM

+1
yeah the CBZ extreme is a pretty good bike..
by cousin has had it for about 3 years now and is still in a good condition..

**g_kab35** · 05-25-2010, 09:12 PM

**ravi@17bhp** · 05-28-2010, 03:35 AM

You will not be disappointed with any of the following. Pick one of your choice.

HH Hunk (a good all rounder), Unicorn, Extreme, GS150, Dazzler, RTR160.

My choice would be Dazzler. New kid with features.

**sooraj_vs** · 11-04-2010, 08:50 PM

So guys, once again a post in this thread. Let me tell you with a heavy heart, I still haven't bought a bike.

Time has changed and so do my feelings.

Now, (and most probably for the rest of the day) my prime concern is SAFETY. I mean, tell me which is the safest bike on road. By the term safety, I basically mean braking (yea, safety is more than just good braking, I know) - the confidence it instills, the stability it has, the down right braking power and resistance to skids. 150-225 cc, (except R15 and ZMR).

From my very limited experience, I find FZ the best. Am I feeling right...?
