    First love

    I am about to purchase my very first motorcycle and have shortlisted the Yamaha FZ-16, Fazer and YZF-R15 V2.0. I am keen on the R15 but unsure whether such a sportsbike is advisable for a novice rider like me? Kindly suggest which you feel makes the most suitable motorcycle for me.

    AAA While keeping in mind this is a focus-built sports motorcycle, with an aggressive riding posture
    and peaky powerband, the sporty Yamaha YZF-R15 V2.0 is also light and easy to handle, within the city
    or on a highway. Yes, you should be able to manage this bike without any problem despite being a first timer. If you want something more comfortable and less aggressive to ride on a daily basis, we also suggest you look at the Yamaha FZ-16, which is the best all round 150cc bike money can buy in India today.

    The Mahindra XUV 300 facelift will be called the XUV 3XO. Should more brands rename models for facelifts?

    Yes, it could give new life to a slow-selling car

    Yes, but only if there are significant changes

     

    31.84%

    No, it's confusing and dilutes the brand name

    No difference, the product speaks for itself
