Vote for it.

post some pics of both bikes so we know what they look like

satish_appasani · 19th June 2004, 12:59

I don't know about these bikes. Right now, it is only CBZ for me.

aadix · 19th June 2004, 13:02

the balius is an 250cc inline four (!!!!) bike producing 40bhp
the comet is a 250 cc *v-twin bike producing 30bhp (??) , has the same engine as aquila

both are in the sub 2lac bracket

i chose the balius!

the other major diff is, think balius has std 2 shocks setup while the comet has a mono shock suspesion at the rear

I prefer a Kawasaki Balius to a Hyosung Comet...

Rtech · 21st June 2004, 11:54

balius for me....nothing comes close to the sound of a inline four screaming at 15,000 rpm!!

Aditya · 21st June 2004, 22:32

This one's pretty easy - Kawasaki Balius.

Dippy · 23rd June 2004, 14:45

Kawasaki Balius it is...

I'll go for Kawasaki Balius ... more powerfull

Kawasaki Balius

Hyusung Comet

papps · 2nd July 2004, 20:54

the balius is a little faster than the comet, but overall i think the comet is a better looking and a better bike, the main thing is a Kawasaki against a Hyosung

i would choose the comet, a v-twin engine, good handling, enough power for that bike

nitrous · 4th July 2004, 22:31

its easy when u ask a person to select either a japanese or a korean. JAPS ROCK!!! btw, comet is still vfm and better looking than the balius.

speedsatya · 11th October 2004, 00:37

going by the looks only ,i wud vote for the comet.
otherwise dunno much

Shan2nu · 12th October 2004, 14:17

Has the Balius been released here? Why are we even discussing this bike?

However, my vote goes to the Balius for power and Comet for styling.

Does the Hornet 250 come under the same category?

Yup, it would. And if these bikes were ever to make it here...no guesses as to which one would be the best seller from this lot!!

I see a met. grey 250 Hornet almost everyday. Its just so perfect...sizewise i mean!

Damn these manufacturers!!!!
