Bajaj Pulsar N250 vs Yamaha R15 V4 in India: which suits a 40 km daily commute and weekend rides?

A roughly 40 km daily commute plus occasional weekend rides makes the Bajaj Pulsar N250 and Yamaha R15 V4 a real choice between different riding priorities. Bajaj lists the N250 with a 249.07 cc engine, 24.5 PS and a 5-speed gearbox. Yamaha presents the R15 V4 as a 155 cc sport-oriented motorcycle. Engine size alone cannot decide how either bike will feel in traffic or over the whole commuting week.

• Daily ride: Try both bikes in city conditions and pay attention to posture, wrist and back load, low-speed control, heat and parking ease over the full 40 km routine.
• Weekend use: Weigh the riding position and the sort of roads actually used, including whether a pillion or luggage comes along.
• Budget: Compare current on-road quotes for the exact variants, insurance and likely service costs in the same city. Do not treat one rider's price or comfort report as universal.

Which would you choose for this split, and what would change your answer: commute traffic, fit on a test ride, pillion needs, service access or the price gap? Share the city, budget and whether the 40 km is one way or round trip.
