    The SP ABS model has a carburetted intake while FI ABS model has a fuel injected intake. That means FI model would give better pick-up and better fuel efficiency than SP one. While the price difference is just about 10,000 bucks, FI is worth it. The only drawback is that there is no kick-start in FI model so if your battery runs out (which would hardly ever happen), you'll have to push-start or jump-start or get a new battery. Moreover, street-side mechanics would not be generally able to repair FI intakes. But I would still prefer FI model. Just keep in mind, the engine of Gixxer is not that durable. The bike looks good but I've ridden it enough to be certainly sure that the engine gives out pretty quickly. If looks don't matter to you that much, prefer an alternative brand of 150cc.

Q. Hello bike riders and experts. I wish to get a bike, mainly for daily commute and of course for short one-day weekend trips (to a max up and down distance of 400km). I am 186cm tall (6.1+) and I'm thin looking. I often get lower back aches because of continuous work in front of the laptop for extended hours. However, as part of my previous job, I used to ride Bajaj Discover DTS i for not less than 60km per day. Maybe that's how I got back pain. After some day of use, my back got adjusted to the ride dynamics. Now, I wish to get a bike with a budget of up to 1.7 lakhs that is height enough to accommodate me and give comfort to my bike. I originally planned for RE Thunderbird 350X thinking that it doesn't produce the typical RE engine sound. But soon, I came to know that even 350X creates noise and the engine starts vibrating at just 80 km speed. Even for casual rides, I pick to 60-70 km in cities, not to mention in highways (often touch 80-95, but never higher than that) and so I dropped the idea. Moreover, it's mileage is only 30, I wish to get at least 40. Karizma ZMR was my other option earlier, but no that the bikes had been discontinued. After a deep research, I came to hear about Gixxer SF. Riders wrote that they are good for tall riders. What do you suggest? Can I go for Gixxer SF ? or do you have any other suggestion in 150-250cc range suiting to my needs. Please note that I'm skeptical about Pulsars (I somewhy hate them.) but people are saying Dominar is also a good choice. I do prefer to have a sportive look and so Unicorn is never in my list. Also, note that I ride my BTWIN MYBIKE bicycle every day for not less than an hour and I never felt uncomfortable riding it. This is just to give you a comparison. I had got the seat and handlebar raised such that my tall legs just touch the ground when in a standing position. Also, I had to lean a little front and the handlebar is straight. Maybe, this posture is fitting to me. If that is the scenario, will riding Gixxer give me the same ergonomics? also, can I get the handle bar modified, like rising it hight etc ? I know a test ride would be the best suggestion for me, but I feel, a one or two round ride would not give me a proper answer than getting feedback from the current owners using from long time. Please suggest. Also, if you have any better alternative to suggest, do suggest. Thank you in advance.
