In terms of performance, the Duke 200 and the Yamaha FZ25 are the stronger of the lot. This is majorly due to the fact that they have a lighter chassis, while all the others have a similar power on paper.

The other two will soon get daytime running lamps as this will be a mandatory feature from April 2017. The Pulsar RS 200 already has DRLs, the NS 200 should get a regular bulb as a DRL.
