      Have your personal opinion & suggest u to TD each & have ur bike

      * ~60kmpl mileage :: DAZZLER/GS150R
      * A good top speed :: RTR/PULSAR
      * Bit Stylish :: Style King - FZ
      * 150cc preference :: DAZZLER/GS150R
      * Smooth and modifiable :: Why u wanna mess with modern technology !!!

      I'd FZ-16 for 2yrs & done 14k... never had a single glitch. Bike is damn good in terms of everything - mileage will be 40 for sure & that's the only thing u have to sacrifice on. FZ's very common these days - reason is bike is a HIT & u will get 50-60K even if u sale in 2yrs / 15,000kms (BUT WELL MAINTAINED)
      You must be the change you wish to see in the world

        No the main thing i am looking for is mileage and cant sacrifice it at any cost. Is that a wise decision to get a GS 150R ??

          Hey BUDDY,

          Seems you have already zeroed in the SUZUKI GS 150R from the Profile Pic. Anyways nice choice. Go for it.

          Nice BIKE with decent mileage and very techno.
          34567 kms and ZMR sold :(

            The list of bikes that i have in my mind.

            * Honda Unicorn:-good bike & everything fits in your requirements but dazzler would be much better
            * Hero Honda CBz Extreme:-another unicorn engine with more power
            * Suzuki GS 150R:-a very decent mileage bike & has a very relaxed long drives due to 6 gears
            * Yamaha Gladiator:-it is an R15 for those who can afford it. Can be bent like hell on any corner. Relaxed riding position. Good mileage being a 125cc
            * Bajaj Pulsar 150cc or 180cc:-a very good & VFM bike. But maintenence is on a little bit higher side compared to others.
            * TVS Apache 160cc or 180cc:-Strictly a city bike. long drives can be painfull. The vibrations can also spoil the fun



            Please suggest if there is any good bike which suits my needs and which i did not include. Need the comments and reviews soon please

            Thanks.

              No 150cc+ bike give you consistent mileage ~60kmpl! Under very sane riding (not crossing 3000RPM) my bike used to give 58kmpl. Though there are bikes like Unicorn that are known to be little more fuel effecient. I have no idea about DAZZLER as its relatively new.

              So fuel Effeciny wise...there is marginal difference between Unicorn, GS150R, P150, Xtreme and Hunk.

              Unicorn > GS150R > P150/Xtreme/Hunk > RTR/P180/RTR180 >> FZ16

              Topspeed wise...(My experience and knowledge)

              RTR180 > P180 > RTR160 > Xtreme/P150 > Hunk/GS150R > Unicorn/FZ16

              Looks/style...depends on how you look at it! its pure personal.

              Smooth wise...(Modifieable? in what way?)

              Unicorn > GS150R > Xtreme/FZ16/Hunk > P150/P180 > RTR160/RTR180

              Since yoy are saying Mileage is most improtant!
              Unicorn has edge...but style/topspeed might not appeal you.

                ^^+1...Superbly put!!

                But one of my friend's A150 returns 60km/ltr when ridden uber sanely.

                @Stylez

                I think CBZ-Xtreme/Hunk would be the bikes you should consider. But expect mileage of 50km/ltr. Else you consider the Dazzler if you are fine with the premium.

                  Hi!

                  My opinion Go in for the Unicorn Dazzler. It is a charm. will give u the mileage u ask for @60kmpl. Engine is rock solid, reliable, refined and very smooth. No maintanence prob if handled and taken care. Honda's service is gud too. So consider the dazzler too.

                  Just go in for a test ride of the bikes u finally short-list before u buy. then decide!

                  Cheers, Happy Riding.

                    Dazzler would be a great choice for your needs. The top end is better and stronger than Unicorn/FZ/Extreme. A mileage of 50 kmpl in city is excellent.
