Q. Which bike is better for long rides, comfort and low maintenance, Honda Unicorn 150 or Yamaha Yamaha SZ-RR?

The Honda Unicorn might not possess the same visual pizzazz of the Pulsar 150, but what it does offer is a bulletproof engine which is frugal as well. The Unicorn 150 is a better bet if you spend most of your time riding in city traffic and the engine refinement offered is still the benchmark in the segment. The only downside is the Honda CB Unicorn 150’s price, which is significantly more than its rivals. The CB Unicorn holds pride of place as Honda’s first motorcycle to be launched in India. Although it’s begun to look dated and far too common, it’s still the choice of many as a well-balanced purchase – offering an affordable 150cc bike that has also got adequate grunt and comfort, even with a passenger on board. At its price, the CB Unicorn is an expensive choice, but it’s also the most reputed as a no-fuss 150cc with good performance, fuel economy and refined engine. On the other hand, the Yamaha SZ-RR is the premium variant of the SZ-S with split grab rail, smoked windscreen and snazzier paint schemes. The Yamaha, on paper, is still the least powerful amongst its rivals, and it misses out on perceived “premium” features like a monoshock rear suspension. At that price, the Yamaha SZ-RR still seems like an expensive proposition, considering the other “value for money” options available.

We would suggest you to pick for Yamaha SZ-RR. The bike makes a perfect match for those who prefer a good looking entry-level performance motorcycle that fulfills the value for money statement. However, it isn't one of the best selling products of the company but still somehow manages to show a fair amount of sales in the company’s sales charts. The bike has been designed impressively keeping in mind the desires of the common mass and young generation. With a stylish headlamp at the front, the bike gets sporty tank shrouds that enhances its overall character. The seating isn't top notch but still it proves its worth in offering comfort to the rider and pillion. It has been assisted with a powerful 245mm disc brake at the front that offers a good bite and a commendable stopping power. The twin rear view mirrors alerts the rider of his surroundings and hence prevents any mishap. The tubeless tyres offer a superior grip and do not deflate suddenly in case of a puncture. These bunch of features make a bike a safe and worthy companion for daily commuting as well as long journeys. Do take a test ride in order to judge your riding comfort.
