If you prioritize power and a smooth ride, the CB300F is ideal, but for cost-effective city commuting, the Hornet 2.0 is a great choice.

Q. I want to buy bike for daily use with low maintenance. I have two choices, Pulsar 220F or Hornet 2.0. Which is better ?
  • As per your requirements, we would suggest you to go with the Honda Hornet 2.0. With a frugal engine, agreeable ergos, light handling and a comfortable ride, the Hornet makes for a great city bike. If you’re currently riding a 125cc bike and looking for something with more performance to make your commute that much more interesting, but you don’t necessarily want something very sporty with ‘racing DNA’, the Hornet offers a sensible and easy motorcycling experience. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort.

Q. Which is the best between YZF R15 V3 and Pulsar 220F?
  • Both bikes are good enough. The Bajaj Pulsar 220F, despite its age, still remains an aspirational motorcycle for Indian buyers given its performance and features. Though the motor isn’t the most refined one out there, it is comfortable for city commutes as well as capable enough for highway touring. On the other hand, the R15 V3 remains one potent small-capacity supersport for beginners. In its version 3.0 guise, it has become sharper and more focused, making it great for sport riding or track enthusiasts. However, the aggressive riding stance could cause discomfort if you intend to use the bike for daily commuting and the quality of components have also gone down. You may compare both bikes accordingly. Do take a test ride for better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
