Hey go for TVS RTR 160 preformance wise good bike....

 

[New]

Pulsar

 

[lywyre]

Unicorn loses in looks, but matches in performance and wins in comfort (vs. Pulsar).

 

[krazzy]

Pulsar 150 DTS-i or the new HH Hunk.

 

[mikeon]

I would say the RTR... best performance and features of the lot...

 

[esumitkumar]

(i have pulsar 180 ..but after 1 yr ..engine is so bhrrrrrrrrr ...bhrrrrrrrrrrrr)

[Pathik]

Honda Unicorn, HH Hunk, if you are short then Apache RTR 160

@gowtham

wow,,,cant believe its under 70k
it totally beats everything in market rite now in looks
reminds me of old R1.

 

[gowtham]

^^ 70k is expected ex-showroom price, so be prepared to shill out extra. but probably itll be max 90k on roda. nothin more.

And, u owned a R1 once? man thats way tooooooooooo cool!! i am dreaming of owning it one day(maybe 8yrs from now!!!). anyways tell me more about the bike. which yr did u get it? y did u sell it??

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

Go for Pulsar 150

coz Apache RTR yellow is very cool .. and now not all should have cool stuff

 

[zyberboy]

pulsar 150: if u want looks,mileage,performance,but vry common nowadays

unicorn: smooth at 60-80km,stable
but not vry good looking

RTR160:best pickup
but small bike with less wheelbase

 

[dOm1naTOr]

@gowtham
u got me wrong
me too was mentioning bout my gud old dream R1. Now its M1 [new dream]

 

[chicha]

[dOm1naTOr]

[gowtham]
