Q. What is the difference between Yamaha FZS-FI V3 Dark Knight and matt black?
  • The Dark Knight Edition of the Yamaha FZS-FI V3 features a different color and graphic scheme over the regular color variants. The accents are visible near the backseat, on the fuel tank and you get black finish exhaust unlike the other color options.
  • Colour, only
  • Matt black non scratch
Q. Which is better for daily commute and comfortable between FZ S V3, Gixxer 2019 and Apache 160 4V - Pulsar 150?
  • I have test ridden gixer... seating is not that comfortable...you tend to slide near the tank while braking.... For daily commute i would recommend fz due to good suspension setup, comfort and mileage.
  • New FZS-FI V3 is far more comfortable than other bikes, front suspension of this bike is super and 7 adjustable hydrolic suspension in back, seat is quite good and big for riding comfort. Well it's street lord.
  • Gixxer will be better than fzsv3 and apache 160v in terms of daily commuting, fun to ride and maneuverability.

Q. Which is the best bike under 1 lakh?
  • Depends on your budget. each and every bike has some pros & cons. nothing is perfect. so it depends on your perfection criteria what type of better you want in a bike. for sports and racing purpose I suggest you to go for 600 cc amd above. for street racing and fun riding you can go for 300 and above cc. for daily purpose and some fun riding in street you can go for 150 cc and above.
  • Bro first try to sort out thing like how much mileage is enough for you. If you need 40 to 60 kmpl mileage from your bike then stay and search bike in 150-160 cc . If you are ok with bellow 40-50 kmpl mileage then search bike in 180 to 220 cc bike.
  • Guys, I gave the options of FZ and Gixer only because the budget is 100000 and NS cost 20-30 thousand more. If the additional amount is not a problem then definitely NS 200 is best

    Smooth and refined engine 

    It can easily give mileage around 35 to 40 kmpl and everything feels good and now it comes with the modern features. It gives good power in the initial and mid range and is very good for both city and the highway and it is a commuting style powerful bike. It is a good enough bike and there is no problem with this bike and the seat of this bike is large and comfortable but the top end performance is not good. The engine refinement is very good without any vibration and is very smooth.

    The N160 is a beast 

    After clocking over 5,000 kilometers on my Bajaj Pulsar N160, it’s time to tell the story. The N160 is a beast, with an engine that delivers 15.7 HP and a torque of 14 Nm making it an absolute joy to rev. Its fuel efficiency is commendable too, standing at around 45 kmpl striking a fine balance between performance and economy.The bike's handling and agility in traffic are top notch all thanks to its lightweight frame and responsive brakes. Riding it feels secure and exhilarating at the same time.

    the most attractive thing on road 

    The Bajaj Pulsar N160, with its 164.82cc engine, offers a slight power boost over the N150. It is decent for city rides with good , though not ideal for high speeds. It delivers around 45-50 kmpl in the city and comes with features like LED headlamps and digital instrument clusters. Comfort-wise, the split seat and handling are satisfactory, but some feel the suspension is stiff on rough roads. Safety features include disc brakes with optional ABS. While it's stylish, affordable, and fuel-efficient, it might not suit highway enthusiasts extreme power or high speeds.

    Great comfort and mileage 

    The comfort is very good and get easily mileage around 45 to 50 kmpl so mileage is brillant with the high power. The suspension is so comfortable and absorbent and the bike is fully controlled and it gives you confidence and the stability is good but the top end performance is not good as compared to the competititors. It gives so grip with the tyres and so Yamaha FZS-FI V3 is a very good option with the linear power delivery. You can control it very easily and the look is very pretty.

    Great mileage and great performer 

    The engine of this bike is very refined without vibration it is very smooth and there is no heating problem with this bike. Yamaha FZ-FI V3 get a very light clutch with really good gearbox and the weight of this bike is very light so taking u turn and in traffic it performs really well. It looks muscular and it comes with dual disc and single channel ABS that gives good braking and it gives me 51 kmpl of mileage and with speed around 85 to 90 kmph which is brillant.

    Urban Dominance, Enhanced Riding Experience. 

    The Yamaha FZS-FI V3, which offers a balance of power and style in every direction, is my top choice to embrace style and performance. My bike is a work of art, with tough looks and interesting performance. Thanks to the excellent engine and quick handling, it’s a pleasant and confident ride on the city streets and on the highways.

    The Yamaha FZS-FI V3 is a solid choice for riders seeking a balanced blend of style, performance, and affordability. With its sleek design and sharp lines, it catches the eye on the road. The engine delivers smooth power, also offering decent performance on highways. You should expect around 45 kmpl in the city and over 50 kmpl on highways. However, the seat could be more comfortable for long rides. Overall, it's a reliable bike that offers good value for money in its segment.
