Don't get YBR. Top speed only 110km/h. Too slow for you. Tank too big. Too fuel efficient. Get a light kapcai with small tank, semi-auto gearbox. Settled.

U want a smooth ride, get a 4 stroke but less powerful.

U want a rough ride, get a 2 stroke, more powerful but more vibration (Normal)

Have you ridden a RS125 or Mito? They're actually quite a lot smoother than the 2B 4 stroke bikes :)

 

Back on topic,

1. Yamaha FZ150

2. Yamaha R15

^ Both these bikes share the same engine.

3.Bajaj Pulsar

Wave

 

Petrol Savvy, slightly bigger tank capacity:

 

Pulsar 180

FZ150

YBR

Phantom 150/200 (depends how u look at it)

cbr150

 

the bigger the tank for the bikes mention the further the distance is with the KM per litre value about the same for these bikes..

Thanks people!! What about SP or Kipps? And anyways, what's the greatest difference between a 2-stroke and a 4-stroke bike?

 

Difference between 2 strokes and 4 strokes are 2 strokes drink petrol faster than 4 strokes. As you asked for FUEL efficient bike, 4 strokes would be a better take.

Phantom 150 , TA150 i thought is 2stroke?

Road hogger @ 50km/h on 4th lane :cool:

A bike can go up till 200km/h, can the rider go up till 200km/h o_O

most 2 strokers consume a lot of petrol. But for TA150 it may be an exception cos it doesnt consume fuel as much as SP/krr but it doesnt save as much fuel as a kup do. but it does supplement with its larger tank compared to kups
