I dont agree that gladiator type J.A. is a bad bike.... its accleration is good. and recently I have achieved a speed of 105kmph. Also milage in Mysore condition(Hilly) is good.. around 50-53kmpl. And in Mysore-Bangalore highway it gave around 63 riding at 60-70. The engine is very smooth compared to Apache or Pulsar. Very good control. You can easily take 90 degree turn at 50-60kmph.
Reaching 60 is like a childs play and at 80 there is no vibration only smooth sound. at 100 you can only feel the sound a smooth sound and wind passing by... nothing else.... vibration is very low compared to pulsar or apache at 100kmph. I test rided an Apache today but then I realised that I have done right in buying this bike.Although they are 150 cc and Yamaha Gladiator Type J.A is 125cc..
For a rooky driver I think Pulsar will suite best... but for men I think Yamaha is the class. Those who have enough biking experince won’t disagree with me......
