Default Honda Shine or Yamaha Gladiator SS?? i'm confused :(

Hi,

i'm planning to gift my dad a 125cc bike with decent pickup, mileage, and handling. My dad and I narrowed down on Honda Shine and I even booked a black one last week. A couple of days ago I saw this new Yamaha Gladiator SS (sports!) on TV and my dad wanted to test drive this new Glady. My dad and I were thoroughly impressed by the new Glady SS looks, and we did a TD. I felt that the pick up of this Glady is slightly lower than Shine, but revs happily without vibrations even at 70kmph (cudn't do more than that :( ). We started to like the Glady more than Shine.....

NOWWW we are in a dilemma whether to go for Glady or stick to Shine! Some say Yamaha might close their shops and some say that Yamaha A.S.S sucks (even Honda A.S.S sucks in my opinion). My friend who has a glady J.A model says that he's happy with the bike's performance but for the mileage (52kmpl).

Could you ppl pull me out of this dilemma? Thanks in advance!

Giga
