depends on what you are comfortable with mate...if you're relatively short then pulsar might not be the best bet....

i dont know about Apache's vibration problem you've mentioned but I've been using a pulsar for 2+ years now and it hasn't given me even slightest of problems...

I am using pulsar 150 dtsi from past 4 years and i am pretty happy with it. With that said and done, i am not much aware of apache, i tried it few times, bike was good. And also i read some great reviews of apache 160 in autocar india magzine, where they pitted apache 160 against pulsar 220,karizma and yamaha r1.

Hope it helps

Go for RTR FI. You won't regret, unlike my friends, who want my RTR instead of their own pulsars always. ;)

+1 for apache.i have it and am 6ft too but i dont feel that its very short. Its riding position is very comfortable and the handling and acceleration is much better than pulsar 150
