I'm in a dilemma as of today, I briefly spoke to my wife about my purchase of Apache 200 4V and she said that she was not happy of my soon to be purchased bike since it's not a tried and tested engine and it's a completely new bike which may or may not have any problems but why go for it when you can go for a Bajaj.. :( I guess she is into more of the Bajaj person. However as we were trying or I was trying to get her into how advanced the bike is and stuff she just said why don't you get a Bajaj Avenger? I was shut completely, I told her my younger brother just sold that bike to get her wife a Activa :( and she was like I'm not telling you to get a 2nd hand bike, go for the new one instead, I like the newer cruse and it shines like anything and I would be comfortable on it. Again my mouth was shut again the 2nd time. I told her baby this bike is comfortable as well, then she goes not as comfortable as a avenger, I agreed silently, then went on you tube and reviewed the newer cruse 220, then I started showing her the cons of the bike, stating no disc brake in the rare, older engine (tried & tested she said) it only has 2 valves (that doesn't mean the bike is bad she said) It's carb (it doesn't freeze in mumbai she said), the shocks are old (they upgraded it she said), the tyres are not tubeless ( since it's spoke wheels, tubed tyres are better she said) as the review was going on and I kept getting answers for every con I created to not buy the bike, then something hit me, why don't I buy the bike but I needed something to hold on to so I told her, Why don't we check the RS 200? she said sure, so as I was playing the review for the bike, she started saying that the bike looks sexy and the tail light is so bright and amazing, I told her I know but the price is nearly 30,000 more then Avenger she said then why don't you get the Avenger. I told her the price difference between the RS 200, RtR 200 4V and Avenger. She told me, just buy what you want and started paying attention to our little princess Manha so I do not know what hit me but I turned to her and said look, I know I want you to be happy with whatever decisions I make and it would make me happy If I go ahead and get a Avenger 220 Cruse. But the problem I'm facing now is I do not like the Drum brake it has in the back, so is there any Options for a cruiser other then Bajaj Avenger and no I do not want a RE since my wife doesn't like the sound of those machines and the vibes they put out. Also What other options I have, I have a budget of up to 2 lacs for a good Machine with safety options and as comfortable ride as a Avenger. It can be a 250 CC bike but not more then that so Mojo is out of question for right now, I'm still thinking about Mojo tho but as a last resort. Till then can you amazing people can share some help would be great.
Please share the options for the Cruisers that fit 2 lacs on road price or less (maybe a little more i can squeeze)
