Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which bike is the best Yamaha R15 V4 or Bajaj Pulsar NS200?
  • The Yamaha YZF-R15 V4 continues to be a trustworthy tool for riders looking to hone their track-riding skills. Of course, it is now a bit ergonomically friendlier and roomy enough for larger riders too. Additions like the traction control and quick shifter only amplify the bike’s sportiness. So, in our books, despite the price jump, the R15 V4 is a worthy proposition. On the other hand, the Bajaj Pulsar NS200 has soldiered through nine years of intense competition. As a result, pricing, features, and ease of use have ceased to be the bike’s strengths. The NS still puts up a strong fight in the BS6 era and is a perfect fit for those who like their bikes sporty and a little raw. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
Q. Which is better between Yamaha R15 v4 vs Yezdi Scramber?
  • The Yamaha YZF-R15 V4 continues to be a trustworthy tool for riders looking to hone their track-riding skills. Of course, it is now a bit ergonomically friendlier and roomy enough for larger riders too. On the hand, The Yezdi Scrambler is one attractive-looking motorcycle that packs equally impressive performance. And with its prices, even though it is a tempting proposition, we hope Yezdi addresses some glaring issues with the bike including quality and engine refinement. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city and brand for dealership details.
Q. I'm confused between, R15 V4 and Gixxer SF 250?
  • Both the bikes are good in their forte. While the Gixxer SF 250 offers a sporty riding experience, it isn’t an out-and-out sportbike. It does offer an affordable, and potentially more fun, an alternative to the Honda CBR250R, making it a great option for more mature riders. Whereas, Yamaha R15 V4 by sticking to its engine has a proven suite of abilities - everyday usability, unintimidating but exciting performance, and low ownership costs. So, the Yamaha R15 is more appealing and more capable than before, and despite the higher price tag still very worthy of being the first sportbike for the budding biker. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.Read more -2021 Yamaha R15 V4 First Ride: Eternally Young?.

    Slightly high 

    Pulsar 125 is a commuter segment vehicle, So it's not a performance oriented one.Riding position is good and it's also good for taller guys.Overall weight is little big, But some times the weight is good for stability and handling (it's only included in the times of cornering and build quality matters).I will get 45 kmpl mileage in non traffic straight rode.The top end speed is 113 kmph but if you cover 70 kmph, Vibration level is at the peak and at this time the engine wil produce excess heat and it will irritating your legs (especially right leg).Chain portion is a curse of pulsar bikes so it will also disturbed you in this bike at every 500 kms (loosed chain and sounds from inner sprocket section).Service cost is slightly high in authorized service centers.After sales service is depends on your dealer; i think popular bajaj is gives you better service experience.No extra features like gear position indicator, Usb charging port, Bluetooth connectivity, Abs etc.Abs system replaced by combi system in to this bike.

    satisfactory rides with bajaj pulsar 

    The Bajaj Pulsar 125 is a popular commuter bike in India, known for its balance of performance, affordability, and stylish design. The Pulsar 125 gets a 124.4cc engine .I claims a mileage of 50 to 55 kmpl . The Pulsar 125 offers a more comfortable riding posture compared to some other commuter bikes in its class. Its split seat variant offers a disc brake on the front wheel for improved braking performance. While the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is not available in any variant which is a major drawback .

    My Experience with the Bajaj Pulsar 125 

    After a year of using the Bajaj Pulsar 125, I am ready to share my thoughts on this popular commuter bike. This model's engine performance with its 124 cc DTS-i engine produces a reasonable 11.8 PS power makes it suitable for daily city rides. The bike is fuel efficient which is a great plus, offering around 50 to 55 km/l, saving me a lot on fuel costs.However, the bike’s light weight while making it movement affects its stability at high speeds or windy conditions.

    Yamaha R15S: A Balanced Ride  

    The Yamaha R15S has been part of my daily commute for the past few months. The model boasts a 149cc engine but with a comfortable unibody seat, it serves well for both solo and pillion riding a rare feature in sporty bikes. The power output feels just right for city and occasional highway rides, offering 16 PS which is sufficient for my needs.The drawback, lies in its somewhat outdated design compared to its sleeker cousins, the R15 V4 or MT 15.Also fuel efficiency is not the best in its segment.

    Feature loaded bike 

    The Yamaha R15 V4 is a popular 155cc bike known for its aggressive design, sporty performance, and advanced features for a 150cc class. Generally it offers a good balance of performance and fuel efficiency. The riding posture leans towards sporty with a forward lean on the handlebars, which is not liked by my father as it provides them a uncomfortable experience .The pillion seat is smaller and might not be ideal for long rides with a passenger.
