I bought Fazer about a year ago. Options were many. Pulsar 220 was just 6K more. The cc difference was huge. I went ahead with Fazer because of poor plastic quality of bajaj. Have driven pulsar 220 of my brother, which was far from being comfortable. It has got engine vibrations in less than a year.
Negatives: To begin with Fazer is heavy and has comparatively low engine power. It takes lot of ground to turn. At night, only one side head lamp glows which is a turns off and looks awkward. The pillion ride is not comfortable and you will get back pain if you are sitting behind for longer duration. The rare tyre, being widest of all the bikes tend to wear out fast. I had to change my rear tyre within a year. Once you reach 75kmph, it takes a lil longer time to reach 90kmph and if road is open you will struggle to get it past 100kmph. Rare breake is non existent.
Positives: Looks it gives in that price. Being heavy it is grounded to road. The rare tyre never allows the bike to skid, but be aware of using front break in rough roads. Once had an accident(hit a dog and slipped) at 75kmph but escaped unhurt as the leg guard and wiser protected me in front. Helmet was life saver. The pickup is awesome. You can dare any bike at traffic stop. The drive is smooth. Engine vibrations is negligible. Photogenic bike:P. Plastic quality is better than any other bike. Product quality as a whole is good. Brand Yamaha is any day better than Brand Bajaj/ Hero. If you follow the schedule servicing, you need not visit servicing center for any other problem.
