Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Bajaj Freedom 125
- Really smooth engine makes riding in the city or even the highway a pleasant experience
- Very efficient when running on CNG - makes for really low running costs
- Looks like no other commuter bike on our roads
Yamaha FZ X
- Smooth and refined engine
- Comfortable riding posture makes everyday commutes easy
- With a tested real-world city mileage of 55kmpl, the FZ-X is pretty fuel-efficient for a 150cc bike

Bajaj Freedom 125
- 825mm seat height can feel tall for shorter riders
- 149kg kerb weight makes it feel a bit heavy to move in the parking lot with your feet
- Should have had a larger petrol tank
Yamaha FZ X
- Feels pretty underpowered for quick overtakes
- Quite expensive for a 150cc commuter bike
- The design looks quite awkward

Overall bike is best commuter
Overall bike is best commuter bike in this segment. Mileage is very good but I have one and only issue that is when I shift it to cng mode it will become missing in throttling and engine becomes off at the running that only problem in this bike without this problem this bike is good for daily use. And it's engine performance looks good at all

Things you must know before owning a Yamaha FZ-X
My Blue Yamaha FZ-X with Golden alloys will turn 2 year old this May of 2025. Pros: 1. Pretty good mileage if not driven roughly (Mine shows 40KMPL instead of the 50-55 KMPL that Yamaha and other owners claim due to rough driving and irregular maintenance) 2. Easy to corner. 3. Low maintenance cost. 4. Strong built (I have crashed the bike twice to realise this) Cons: 1. Stock headlights are not powerful enough. 2. The Digital interface is unnecessarily big which makes the front styling a bit weird. 3. Quick overtakes are out of question as it lacks power. 4. The bike could have used a 6th gear as the bike punches in max 5000rpm at 60-70 KMPH 5. Pillion riding is uncomfortable and tiring as the seat is small.
