      Hey bro,

      FZ-S and Dazzler will suit you better since both have bulky appearance. FZ-S is a little more stylish than FZ-16(my perspective).

      FZ will give you 40+ mileage on normal driving. If you have any idea of ripping forget that figure. FZ will give you top class ride comfort and very refined engine. Cornering will be a pleasure.

      Dazzler is a kind of all rounder. No comments on its handling since the bike is pretty new to the market. Refined and trustworthy mill from the Unicorn. Honda has given the Dazzler whatever the Uni didn't have. Rear disc boosts its value. Mileage will be 55+(as per the company) so that's a bonus.

      Take a test drive between both and update us.

      This might help.

        thank u...
        I wud rather suggest You to go for P180 UG 4 .. Suits all your needs ,

        MIN CC = 150 CC << 180 CC
        wheels TYPE = Alloy << YES
        Tyres = tubeless (not necessary...) << YES
        braking system = disc(at least front one) << Front Disc

        i need a mixture of style(first preference) and mileage << Bingo..

        Its Has Wider tires and Pretty good styling ... Of course if Your not bored of the Revolutionary Wolf Eyed Headlight .. You can go for it hands Down..

        But I wud also suggest you to TD P220 s ... Its wud cost u around 75-76 k's and a true VFM..

        If You want awesome styling + kicka$$ handling then go for FZ-S ...

        Again this depends Upon your uses ... Pulsar 180 or 220S wud give you rock solid stability on highways ... in crosswinds.. Overtaking is much easier with the raw Power...

        I have experienced Fz shaking like hell while overtaking trucks on highways...

        SO the choice depends on your uses..

          thx...for ur reply...
          i did test drive both of them....
          fz felt light ...
          dazzler was a bit heavy....and when i sat on back seat...the view was gr8...i was able to see clearly over the drivers head...

          i learnt bike driving just 10 days ago...so i cant tell much about handling....

          i actually went ahead and ordered the dazzler... but then some of my friends said that... dazzler is good.... but students need style which i get from Fz..they said " mileage is for uncles". so i cancelled the dazzler..and decided to rethink....it...


          can u tell me about the resale value of fz and dazzler after say 3to4 years...?

            is the nitrox suspension of p180 good ?

            p220 is a lot more...costly...

            are you sure fz shakes? or it the problem of the one bike u were driving... maybe it had an accident b4?...as i read here only in some thread that fz doesnot shake at all....

            can u tell about the resale values of fz and p180 and dazzler?
            thx

                  p220 is a lot more...costly... Its over your budget

                  are you sure fz shakes? or it the problem of the one bike u were driving... maybe it had an accident b4?...as i read here only in some thread that fz doesnot shake at all....

                  FZ being a lighter bike, is more susceptible to shake in crosswinds as compared to any Pulsar which are much heavier. FZ when compared with R15 has a lot less shake as the Full fairing acts like a Sail Boat in crosswinds.

                  can u tell about the resale values of fz and p180 and dazzler? All 3 will have decent resale values after the end of 2-3 years.
                  thx

                    Nitrox.. Well it has proved that its worth ... though u gonna find P180's split seat bit stiff..

                    Pillion seat is much harder..

                    And my GF complains its like sitting in railways waiting room chairs ..

                    About P220 ... I suggested You P220S and Not P220 F ... Street Fighter Is Good VFM product.. i am not sure about its price range at your place.. Just inquire with the local dealer...

                    FZ is truely Lord Of streets ... Best range of Low end Torque and stylish Outlook make her stand ahead on street roads..

                    About FZ shaking while over taking big trucks on highways..
                    antz.bin bhai has already put his light on this issue in previous post.. i cant better him .. )

                    Though wont give same pleasure on highways... If you gonna make choice , do it by test driving all of 'em ....

                        there is a simple answer man.. if technically speaking you are ok with both the bikes, no one else can/should make the final decision for you..

                        take a test ride and go with your heart

                          be clear about what you want.. you seem to be giving too much importance to your friends' opinion.. that's not necessariliy a bad thing..
                          But you should be clear about your requirements..

                          after 3-4 years.. there will not be much difference in resale value.. you can even get a 4 year old karizma in 30-40k.

                            what does your heart say?? does it beat faster when you see FZ-S or Dazzler.. go with your heart.

                              +1 on that.
                              Friends opinion is always to be welcomed. But it is YOU who is going to ride it. So go for the one which rings the bell. And "mileage is for uncles" is really such a bad thought when petrol costs Rs.55 per litre! It might come handy when on tours or an emergency situation.
                              So choose wisely........
