There is another review by krishna on this website. Even his dazzler has had camshaft failure. Also, others have changed cone bearings. Does honda provide 1 year warranty for entire selfstart mechanism? Example, what if battery is fine, but charging circuit or starting motor gets spoilt? Only batter...y warranty is not enough, as dazzler has no kicker.Read More

Dazzler has rear disc brake, and this is an advantage and attraction to me too. But dazzler has thin front shock absorber and is smaller bike and it looks less strong. We can confidently recommend Unicorn. But somehow cannot confidently recommend dazzler. And I know surely Honda spares are costly.

Honda service and spare parts are costly. Service and spare parts contribute more profit to Honda dealers, so mechanics are careless and cause problems and ensure you are forced to buy costly spare parts.

The chain noise is because of open chain case. Not an issue. How is the pulling with a pillion? I found pickup less than what i expected with pillion. Also, how is honda service and spares cost. Spares like disc brake pads and stem bearing cost?

He is right about that bearing part. Again, he is right, Honda spares are too costly. He is right about low resale value too. Activa and Shine has resale value and Unicorn new model has resale value, but dazzler and stunner have no resale value.

Carbon collection in engine head. How can that happen? It can happen only if fuel quality is bad, air filter is loose allowing dust to get in, or if piston rings are worn out. I am guessing bad quality fuel. Or probably dealer is unnecessarily opening cylinder head, instead of just tuning carburetor... and cleaning air filter.
Clutch plate wear out depends on riding style and traffic. If you ride in more in slow traffic and constantly use clutch, obviously clutch plates will wear out in any bike. If you ride a fast bike like Apache and Pulsar in slow traffic, you need to use clutch a lot; again there will be clutch wear, but dont blame Apache or Pulsar for that; they are made to ride fast. Clutch plates wearing out problem is probably more in honda unicorn.
Also Honda spares are also not readily available. And Honda and Yamaha spares are costliest. Suzuki spares are much more reasonable.Read More

Unicorn might have slightly better resale. But the spares and service cost of honda is also very high.

There is no resale value for any bike nowadays, except splendor.

Yamaha and Honda engines wont let you down?? Yes, but if properly maintained, all engines last almost the same, whether it is Hero, Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki, TVS, or Bajaj; it does not matter.
If you buy an Apache and ride it slowly with lots of clutch use and jerking, definitely the clutch will we...ar off. Later dont blame Apache for that. Apache is not meant to ride slow; it has to be ridden fast.
Similarly, if you buy unicorn and constantly ride at high speeds, it will give problems later. Unicorn is meant to ride at slower speeds. Later dont blame unicorn for that. So, chose bike according to your riding style.Read More

No company gives teflon coating; Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Bajaj, Hero, TVS, all companies give polish only, but they call it as teflon coating. New buyers dont fall for this teflon coating; it is just to make money. It is not teflon, it is just polish. Now, new SZ-R comes with kicker.

Buddy dont ride so fast during run-in, especially first 1500 km, it will affect your mileage. Honda spare parts are very costly. How about yamaha spare parts, are they costly too?

You are comparing gs150r which is 150cc bike to 110cc twister and 125cc Glamor and 125cc Flame. Really, what to say, no words. How can you expect Twister/Flame type mileage in 150cc bike. Even Twister does not give 75 kmpl mileage. Please compare this bike with Apache and Pulsar. CBZx is worse looki...ng than this. You need mobile charger? is this girl's scooty to give mobile charger?? The only prob this bike has is heavy weight.Read More

The main advantage of Fz is its light weight and easy turning and handling. You missed this main feature. Check your tyre pressure. Under-inflated tyres will result in lack of pickup. Paint scratches you will have with all bikes while parking and using.
Only drawback with fz16 is pillion seat len...gth is short and mileage is 40. Dont keep revving the bike; once it picks momentum, let it roll. Even CBZ mileage is not very good.
Also, it is foolish to buy bike without kicker. Think what you will do if selfstart fails at traffic signal while you travel with your wife or girlfriend. All other people will shout at you. It will be embarassing without kicker.
Yes cars and R15 have no kicker, but cars have powerful 30 Ah to 100 Ah battery. Cars and R15 also have fuel-injection, so selfstart is reliable. CBZ, Hunk, dazzler, SZR are all carburetor bikes, not fuel-injected. Carburetor bikes should have kicker. Dont buy bike without kicker.Read More

Nonstick products from prestige some bad and some good. Pigeon nonstick is even worse. We have used a crystal product without any problems. Best so far we have used are imported ones.

Honda dazzler front suspension (shock absorber) is very thin, like 100cc splendor suspension. It is not as thick like cb unicorn front suspension. All other 150cc bikes have thicker front suspension than dazzler. FZ-S front shock absorber of 41 mm is thickest. Even 10k cheaper SZ-R has thicker front... suspension than dazzler. Also, all the welding on swingarm and frame is very rough; it has not been smoothened/ground. This is bad quality and bad finish from honda.Read More
