why not add new discover 150cc to your list.It comes in your budget as well.If you are new to biking go for bajaj bikes.they are ruf and tuf bikes and spares are cheaper.

Is it 150CC bike?What about its mileage and other performance?

Choose between these two Pulsar 135 else Stunner CBF....
Both are VFM and has almost all the advanced features......

If you ask me to Pinpoint between these two......I would blindly go for Pulsar135.......

Pulsar 135

More power than Stunner
Disk brake
DTSI
Digital Speedometer

Stunner

Better power for its class
Smoother engine
Optional Disc brakes
Now comes with Tachometer too

For pure mileage Discover 100 cc

For style, performance, bullet-proof engine, smooth and refined engine, reliability, and mileage CB Twister. More over, CB Twister's performance is equal or better than some 125cc bikes. You can forget about Stunner, gladiator, and other 125 cc bikes.

P135 is completely in a different league and outperforms every bike you listed in performance (even many 150cc bikes). But, if you want to keep the bike for long years, there is a risk. Same mileage may not be guaranteed after two years.

Hey bro,

Go for 100cc bikes if you want just mileage. But the 125cc bikes these days offer both mileage and adequate perfomance. Pls let us know what mileage you are expecting. Is perfomance a criteria?

BTW just to brush you up with some info,
Stunner-Mileage 50+ under normal driving. Costly for a 125cc. But highly reliable(All Hondas are reliable!). Really stunning and sporty looks!

CB Twister- The best commuter in market now. Highly refined engine compared to other 100cc bikes. Slightly sporty seating. Awesome looks. Mileage should be around 60.

Shine-A 125cc commuter. Silk smooth engine. Very light bike. Tires are not so good. Mileage 50+. Decent perfomance. Bland sleek looks.
Honda bikes won't be high on maintainence I guess.

Passion Pro- Highly reliable. Has that proven engine from splendor. Dated looks. Don't expect the word perfomance to come up here. Mileage will be 65+ confirmed.

Glamour-My uncle owns the non disc alloy wheel model. Had been riding it for several months. So, acc to my experience....the seating is high but comfortable. Reliable bike. Sounds a little loud. Mileage is on the lower side-45+. Not a hit model so I wouldn't suggest this one.

P135- Go for it if you are expecting a mix of mileage(55) and perfomance(0-60 in 5.16s). Quality is a notch below the competition but not bad. Looks great! Damn value for money.

Discover-It has a smooth 100cc engine mated to a 5-speed gearbox. So needless to say, you can expect very good mileage here(say around 70). Peppy perfomance which is adequate for city. Looks like the older siblings. Very small tires!! So bad stability on freeways.

Flame- Stay away from this one. A big failure model. Many have reported bad mileage. Anyways to be frank, it looks very nice.

Star Sport- Gives you good mileage(60+) and perfomance is also adequate. Looks very small and tiny but decent looking yet. I always feel this bike suits better to who are lean. Not so stable.

Gladiator-Very reliable bike(of course, its a yamaha!). Mileage should be 50+ but will definitley go down on thrashing. Performance figures are really good.

Now let us know your exact requirements and we'll be able to filter the list.

Ravi, don't think Twister's engine is bullet proof bro ) i mean in the real sense.. ) no offense!! Given his weight is 79, don't think Twister is an option.. Flame/Glamour can be safely eliminated.. as far as i know they are not very popular. Your budget seem to rule out P135/Stunner as well..as both of them significantly overshoot the 55k mark and there is a recent price hike, which will add to that. That leaves Disco 100/Disco150/Passion plus/Shine. Personally, I never liked Shine for it's bad top end performance.. but it's good for cities. You can take a ride and decide for yourself. If you are after mileage then Disco100/Passion plus are good bets.. if you need a bit more torque and power then go for Disco150..

But but but.. if you can stretch your budget.. my suggestion would be P135LS.. coz you can ride a faster bike slower, not the other way around. With sane riding you can always get 60kmpl with P135LS.

Okay, I got it! P135LS has the bullet proof engine. Is it?

For 79kgs, you can safely rule out P135 too then.

BTW, do you think I am a noob here in automobiles? I had enough experience and I know what I am suggesting. Everybody knows what Honda is famous for. If you do not know, better you know it.

In his budget, the other best option would be P135. It is priced quite competitively and is the most VFM bike as of now. Quality, reliability, and refinement not on par with Honda. Given the Bajaj's history, long-term reliability yet needs to be established.

If VFM is the main criterion, along with performance and mileage, and if the thread starter likes the roarty engine that vibrates at higher rpms, and if he is willing to take the risk of long-term reliability of Bajaj engines, P135 is the right choice.

This is what I don't understand here.. rotary engine that vibrates at higher rpm, so Ravi sir did you drive P135, if so did it vibrate at higher speeds?? It's Stunner which vibrates at higher speeds(not the FI version though, which anyway finds very few takers) what's the risk here in going to P135?? don't try to frighten TS, there are so many pulsars around, so you don't need to prove Pulsar's reliability now.. it's already proven. Go thru P135 thread.. no major problems reported even for the first batch of bikes.

Ravi Sir owns a Stunner FI whose bulletproof engine has already been opened within the 1st year of ownership. So much for the Bulletproof Honda Reliability. The point is.. if you take good care of your vehicle, even Vibgyor Motors will last a decade. If you/SS dont or you are stuck with a lemon, even hondas can die. Also, IMO, the premium Honda charges for longevity is inexplicable. Thats the reason I recommend Suzuki instead of Honda. In TS's case, Bajaj Pulsar 135LS over Honda Stunner Carb.

P.S.: Stunner carb wont even reach the speed where a P135 will start vibrating. The 0-100 timing of a stock Stunner carb can easily be measured in Years (instead of seconds) while a P135 can do a true top end of 112kmph(120 on speedo). And to top it all, it IS the best handling, the lightest, the most fuel efficient and the most revolutionary Pulsar ever.

P.P.S.: No offends to anyone here.

First learn to read the posts properly, then you can point fingers at. Do not assume things. If you feel "frightened" with my post, better ignore it.

"Did I do a comparo of Stunner and P135 in my post?"

I can only give you an advice. "Read posts properly."

You did not do a proper comparo and thats what prompted me to. Because comparing Twister with P135 was just lame.

Anyways.. why dont you.. for the benefit of the readers, elaborate more on YOUR Stunner's Situation.
