So almost everyone is suggesting a Karizma over the pulsar 200 ? (is this like the palio effect or the karizma is real good ?? i myself am a palio stile owner (dad) and suggest the car to every potential hatchback buyer ... no offence meant)

but one thing has the karizma not been around for too long ?? is in ... is it slated to be replaced ?? (Fuel injection)

my priorities are
1) Safety
2) Comfort
3) Reliability (Dont want to visit the showroom often)
4) I have a big frame and hence needed a lil bulky bike.
5) Mileage of 35 or so is good.
6) lets chuck the ladhak trip for now :P , the bike be used only in the city for daily commuting.
7) good resale value, will buy a car or a better bike in 1 - 2 years.

@Bullboy : maintenance cost is 2.5k per annum >??

the avenger has a lil low stance, i mean is the ride confident in city traffic rides ??

pulsar 180 is available for 64k or so and 200 for 74 here in navi mumbai,
so i'll save 10,000/- already, dont really want a performance bike but a reliable bike (liked the looks of the 200 though).

thanks for the replies

please guide me looking at my priorities.
