Q. Confused between, SF250, R15 V3 and NS200. My height is 6 feet.
  • Among the available options, we would suggest you to go with the Bajaj Pulsar NS200 if you are looking for a bike with sporty handling, a brilliant gearbox, and a good price to performance ratio. The Bajaj Pulsar NS200 was always seen as an affordable alternative if you were in the market for a sporty streetfighter. However, given that the competition now offers better features, the Bajaj Pulsar NS200 feels less relevant now. On the other hand, you may go for the Suzuki SF 250 for its all-rounder capabilities. It’s good in the city, works well on the highway, and although not extremely sporty, handles well too. Then it’s comfortable for the rider and not too bad for the pillion either. The build is solid, and its design, while not universally lovable, is certainly striking. For a better understanding of compatibility and riding comfort, we would suggest you to take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
