I can give help u with advice on Bajaj. CBF 150 i cant because i havent ride the bike before. To start off, Bajaj is a SUPER DUPER EXTREMELY fuel saving bike. Mine can clock above 700km. That is equivalent to nearly 2 weeks of travelling per fuel top up. That also means in a month u only top up twice! =D The handling is much better than YBR 125 because Bajaj is slightly heavier hence it wont swerve as much.

 

Now for the downside, Bajaj as compared to other makes, are not very popular among dealers. This will mean that IF YOUR BIKE BREAKS DOWN, then YOUR WALLET WILL MELTDOWN as well. There is only one supplier for Bajaj spare parts here in singapore. Hence that bugger will of course take advantage and mark up all the prices of the spare parts. I overhauled my Bajaj before selling it ( very nice of me right? very mindful of the next rider =P), and the overhaul works cost me 750 freaking bux. Which 2B m/cycle cost so much for overhaul? The second disadvantage is, Bajaj is of low market value. And the shop here will not buy it any more than 2k. Ive surveyed all around. Spent so much on my bajaj in the end sell it for such a pathetic price. ( Now this part i ABIT regret i overhaul the bike for 700 ) So yea, for the future buyers, THINK CAREFULLY.

If u go for look and style than it is the FZ16 but if u goes for Engine spec. than FZ150I.

i would like to know fz 16 fuel can clock how many km??? for full tank

[newbie2b]

the guy at the bike shop i bought my bike at told me i made a good choice buying fz150i. cos he said while fz16 looks better, performance wise fz150i is better. but then again, to me, fz150i looks better. i think the fz16 looks abit lopsided.

[revhappy]

Both the bikes are extreme of each other.FZ16 is all about awesome looks, technical spec wise its a bit old school, low compression ratio and hence lower top speed and pick up due to it wide tyres.

 

FZ150i is high compression ratio, light weight and powerful both pick up and top speed. But looks wise its pathetic looks just like Spark with a tank.

 

So given choice, I would like to have a balance of both and hence I would reject both the bikes.

You can consider Yamaha R15 which has same engine as FZ150i and looks also awesome, I would choose that

[SC Gaban]

in terms of looks, fz16 wins. for stylish looks, stylish mods and wat have u, fz16 wins. for parts, aftermarket parts and engine mods, fz15i wins cos fz15i uses yamaha spark/LC engine. diff is just a bigger block. servicing also fz15i wins cos malaysia got many parts compared to fz16. fc wise, probably fz16 wins. india bikes are more concern for fc. both are great bikes depends on how u utilise it.

 

as for me, id rather ride a pulsar 220(sg dun have, only indonesia) or hyosung comet gt250. teeeeeheheheheheheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.........

i would like to know fz 16 fuel can clock how many km??? for full tank

 

Full tank aga aga at 12L will get u around 430km. FC around 38-39 KML on stock parts depending on how you ride.

 

This is based on my weight of 70kg + 10kg of load i carry with me everyday. I use Shell 95 petrol and travel half city and half highway on a regular basis, usually maintaining a speed around 70-80km on average.

[reize]

Anyway, COE fluctuates, it depends on the month your dealer bids for you. ATM its around 2.2k-ish give or take.

 

You also need to pay for insurance for your bike,FZ16 insurance for me 23 yo buying it first hand, F&T coverage was 1k.

 

Machine price for FZ16 is around 4.2k when i ordered it in Dec 2011, depends on the dealer you go to.

 

All in all i felt FZ16 is a good bike for its stylish looks, problem is it lacks alot of aftermarket body kits and performance kits if you're into zhng-ing. Although if you buy it for its FC, u wouldnt want to replace any performance related parts since its fine as it is.

 

Its a pretty good bike for a new rider IMO

[xavw]

FC for FZ150i is about 43-45km per litre. On 95 petrol.
