depends on what you are comfortable with mate...if you're relatively short then pulsar might not be the best bet....

i dont know about Apache's vibration problem you've mentioned but I've been using a pulsar for 2+ years now and it hasn't given me even slightest of problems...

my ht is 6ft..
so wht u suggest..apache or Pulsar..!1

i will look forward to pulsar then...

if we compare apache and pulsar by performance whi is best.. f u hve prior experiance??

I am using pulsar 150 dtsi from past 4 years and i am pretty happy with it. With that said and done, i am not much aware of apache, i tried it few times, bike was good. And also i read some great reviews of apache 160 in autocar india magzine, where they pitted apache 160 against pulsar 220,karizma and yamaha r1.

Hope it helps

yaa.. thnks a lot..!!

Go for RTR FI. You won't regret, unlike my friends, who want my RTR instead of their own pulsars always.

+1 for apache.i have it and am 6ft too but i dont feel that its very short. Its riding position is very comfortable and the handling and acceleration is much better than pulsar 150

though I am not a true fan of TVS infact I kinda hate them, but to my surprise almost all online bike reviews have praised apachie to the limites. And truly so as it comepletely changed my mind when I drove it. Infact I was surprised to feel apachie beating the crap out of FZ16 at accleration at high speeds like from 55-60 to 80-90 Kmph
FZ16 on the other hand just dragged when picjed up from 55 to 80.

FZ 16 is ultimate ride if city traffice is what you want to cover, its best when driven in city because of its high torque, best pick up from 0-60 and broad tyres, you go zip zap in city with ease, however when it comes to long ride speed APACHE rules.... trust me, it simply picks effortlessly from 55 to 80, and you can actually feel the power, but then again lacks the riding comfort coz I was clearly feeling the vibrations. When it comes to ride comfort and drive smoothness, simply nothing can beat CBZ X, absolutely amazing riding comfort. CBZ X is a smooth as butter at high speeds, best driving posture, absolutely smooth gear shift (no neutral lock ups), best suspention (even though its not GAS) and best of all least vibrations (almost negligible). So the choise is yours...

For best city ride :: FZ16 with best 0-60 pickup and broad tyres
For best long ride speed with power :: Apachie with amazing high speed pickup
For ride comfort and smoothness and still better high speed pickup then FZ16 :: CBZ X

all recomendations assuming that the looks of the bike dont kill you else FZ16 is the obvious choise.

Pulser I would not go anyhow irrespective of performance as there are toooo many pulsers on road and has absolutely lost its charm....
