                • Cons

                • Yamaha FZS-FI V3

                  • Muscular design and chunky tank extensions give the FZ a big bike appeal
                  • Despite looking big, the FZ is very lightweight and handles really well
                  • Engine is very fuel efficient and gives good mileage for a bike in the 150cc segment

                  Bajaj Pulsar N160

                  • Great handling - changes direction quickly, feels stable when leaned too
                  • Riding posture, although a bit sporty, is quite comfortable
                  • One of the few bikes in the 160cc segment to get dual-channel ABS
                  • Powerful and smooth engine

                • Yamaha FZS-FI V3

                  • Switchgear quality feels quite basic and not what you’d expect at this price point
                  • Misses out on features like turn-by-turn navigation
                  • Headlight doesn’t have the desired output and doesn’t do a good job of illuminating the road ahead

                  Bajaj Pulsar N160

                  • Looks very similar to the smaller Pulsar N150
                  • Rear suspension setup feels a bit uncomfortable, especially on sharp bumps

                  Good for raceing

Top breaking system, abs and disc, mind-blowing colour options. I have been using it for 3 years. This bike feul system is amazing and all tyres are good working. Bikes gives good comfort.

                  Unmatched experience!! I loved riding
                  Unmatched experience, I loved riding Yamaha FZS V3 DLX edition and after riding this I got to know why people say Yamaha engines are exceptional good!! Maintenance cost also doesn't hurt your wallet. Comfort is also good for city commute and average is too good on this bike. Overall I enjoyed riding this and got to know why people say Japanese brand Yamaha is the Lord of the streets.

                  According To Me It Is Recommended To Buy This.
                  It's a bike for long drive. Safety when it's comes to safety it's easy to handle and control. I have ride till now around 1500 Km. For me the mileage is around 47 to 50 kmpl. If you are safe riders then it will give you good mileage. Very comfortable in riding. Sitting is also very comfortable. I am very glad after purchasing this bike. Mileage is very good and it is very useful for students mainly college students those whom have very low pocket money. it's price is affordable for that person who wants to buy a sports bike and having budget of 1.50 lack definitely go with this bike. A very comfortable bike and it also has a up to 1000 maintenance charge, it's mileage is superb and styling is really gives a sports bike feel, with this segment of engine cc. It also gives a best top speed.

                  Yamaha FZ V3
                  Bike is a 2022 model and is very comfortable driving within the city and also it has good torque and height clearance is also good, has bulit in bluetooth which adds a extra layer safety from theft. If going for a long drive then also it is comfortable. In premium petrol can give an average upto 45-50 km.

                  Good Bike for 150cc variant
                  I chose Yamaha FZ due to the bike body style and of course for the Yamaha brand. The Bike comes with good mileage and riding on this bike is also comfortable. Exhaust sound is good and one thing about this bike which is different from other 150 cc bikes is the mileage and maintenance which is cost effective. Overall the ride is positive as the seats are comfortable within city ride. The long ride becomes difficult for the person who is seating on the back due to the seat density. Bike pickup is very poor, this is the biggest cons. If you are looking for a bike which gives you sporty look with great mileage then YES, Yamaha FZ V3 is the ultimate choice. But I would also recommend to check for other brands as well such as Honda and TVS.

                  Best bike in this segment..
                  Bike is very smooth in city as well as highways. It has very comfortable seat and posturing with a good mileage and smooth and refined engine. Bike is overall good by looks and performance in the segment of 160cc. I ride the bike 400km in once and it is very smooth and no vibration in handle and refined engine with soothing performance. I only stop bike for half an hour after crossing 250kms and bike is overall perfect for far journey by bike. I would like to recommend this bike to office employees who want a stable bike also mileage, performance, and good engine with a genuine budget and for family bike, it is good. This bike has it own craze in youth who want sporty bike in low budget as it is a fast commuter bike.
