HERO HONDA CBZ Rs 54,100-59,600
Capacity 156.6cc Power12.62bhp
Torque1.27kgm Max speed 113kph
0-60 5.31sec
The CBZ is fast, quite refined and truly a sweet handler. It lacks a CV carb and lags behind modern machinery. Hero Honda now needs to address it with more than fresh decals to get it up and fighting its new competitors.

TVS FIERO F2 Rs 44,800-46,800
Capacity 147.5cc Power 12bhp
Torque 1.15kgm Max speed 108kph
0-60 6.25sec
Still a smart urban warrior, this TVS has a smooth engine, crisp Performance and decent Fuel Efficiency as well. Well priced, its major failing remains the lack of a fifth cog in its gearbox.

LML GRAPTOR RS 50,900
Capacity 150.8cc Power 13.4bhp
Torque 1.31kgm Max speed 111kph
0-60 5.97sec
LML's smart-looking 150cc challenger, the Graptor is a fast and taut-handling machine. It suffers when compared with new machinery in the segment. The Graptor could do with more attention to detail and added refinement.
