Having used a Bajaj bike for over 12 years, I have no qualms in considering any one among the Pulsar family. But then there are the Yamaha FZ and Fazer 25 to lure me. If not that, the dreams of a now pricey CBR 250 come to haunt me. If I am able to think beyond this, used bikes from a segment above 250 is an option to drool for.

With a budget of Re 90000/-, which used bike is a good option for touring with a pillion?
I doubt that you'll find a FZ25 within the budget. If you add 10 to 20K more you may have a better chance at finding a nice one instead. I would also suggest taking a look at decently used CBR 250. Those are usually in good condition.

Clearly, Ninja 300 ABS is the best bike in the category right now.

The bike still looks sharp, has a 17l fuel tank, smooth twin - Wins hands down.

I bought a used 2014 CBR 250R ABS with 30K on the Odo and in good condition for 95000/- and am very happy with it. Refined reliable engine, low vibes, adequate power, quasi-erect position.

IMO the pillion seating on the CBR is good for intra-city or weekend rides but would be challenging on longer if pillion is an adult.
