I'm 5ft 4in tall and currently ride a Jawa 42. I'm looking for either a sporty naked or a touring motorcycle with strong low-end performance, minimal engine heat and decent fuel efficiency. My budget is up to 3 lakh, and I'm not interested in retro-style motorcycles.

Since your usage is mostly in the city, the added performance that the Harley-Davidson X440T brings over the Honda CB350 H'ness is unlikely to make a big enough difference to justify the big price difference between the two. Additionally, the Honda bike will also return much better fuel economy owing to its smaller, more efficient engine. Both are on a similar level when it comes to comfort, so the CB350 H'ness is the more logical buy between the two. Take a test ride of both to see which one you're leaning towards more before you make a decision.

The River Indie is a scooter that is both comfortable for larger riders and has the largest boot on any Indian electric scooter, measuring 43 litres. You should get a range of 100km on a single charge if ridden sensibly in the middle 'Ride' mode, and River has also built an excellent reputation for service quality and experience, even if its volumes aren't as big as the heavy hitters in the market. Take a test ride of the Indie before you make your decision to make an informed purchase.

Your concerns about the Royal Enfield Bullet 350's weight are justified, to an extent. Yes, at 195kg, you will feel every ounce when moving it around in the parking lot or at slower city speeds, but once you get moving, the weight fades into the background and doesn't pose a hindrance. The Bullet / Classic 350 have a soulful, slow-revving thumper which works well when you ride in a relaxed and unhurried fashion. Royal Enfield bikes also have a good reputation for resale value, especially when it comes to the popular 350s. If instead you want a different experience, look at the 350cc Triumph Speed T4. The T4 is much lighter and has better performance as well as handling. It also comes from a reputable brand and should realistically not throw any unwelcome surprises into your ownership experience.
