On most Hero motorcycles, as you've pointed out, the gearbox is quite notchy & lacks a snick, precise feel. While we can't comment on why the company has been unable to solve this issue, we can say that the latest Xtreme 160R 4V doesn't seem to suffer from this issue - at least our experience from the first ride event tells us that it doesn't. We'd recommend you get an extended test ride of the bike to properly try it out before going ahead with your purchase, or look at alternatives like the Bajaj Pulsar N160 or TVS Apache RTR 160 4V.

Given your long 40km daily commute, a history of back issues and valuing fuel efficiency and a good price, the Honda Unicorn is the best fit in the 150-160cc category. It has a very comfortable and upright riding position, a well-padded seat and a soft suspension setup that absorbs bad roads well, which is important for your back. The engine is smooth and refined, and Honda’s reliability and low maintenance costs make it a sensible long-term choice. It is not the most feature-rich bike in the segment, but it does the basics extremely well and is known for its comfort and durability.If you instead want something that looks and feels a little sportier, then look at the Hero Xtreme 160R 4V. The Xtreme is a lightweight, comfortable, feature-rich and proven offering which adds a dash of style to the proven commuter recipe. The Xtreme is a good deal more expensive than the Unicorn but also brings in more features and better mechanicals to justify that premium. Take test rides of both and see which one is more comfortable for you as well as in your budget before you make your decision.

The good news here is that both the Hero Xtreme 160R 4V and Bajaj Pulsar N160 are comfortable machines and going for either of them will be a good move. Picking between the two will boil down to which one suits you better and which bike's sales & service reach is near to you. The Pulsar feels slightly more spacious than the Xtreme, especially in the seat to footpeg curve which could be something to watch out for on your test ride.

Since you have a fairly long daily commute, getting a comfortable machine will be advisable. Currently, in the 150/160cc category, bikes like the Honda Unicorn, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, and Hero Xtreme 160R 4V are our top picks. If you are a taller rider, the Apache will feel a little cramped, so keep an eye out for that. The Honda bikes also have marginally less performance than the other bikes on this list.A test ride of all these bikes will help you decide which is best for you.

The Hero Xtreme 160R 4V is a sporty commuter which has a feature no other competitor in the segment does - cruise control. It has a reasonably peppy and smooth engine, good suspension and is quite a comfortable machine overall, even for taller people. It will also return good fuel economy, and Hero machines are generally known to be affordable to own and maintain. It is also quite a bit more affordable than the XSR155, so if your budget is tight, then it makes for a good option to consider.Coming to the Yamaha XSR155, this is a far more modern machine in terms of its engine architecture and its chassis design, using proven fundamentals from the R15 in a neo-retro package. The XSR is sure to be the quicker, better-handling machine while also returning comparable fuel economy to the Xtreme. Yamaha's aren't known to be expensive to live with either, but since the XSR has a more complex powertrain, its running costs could be a little higher than the simpler Hero. Both are different machines from distinct segments, so we would urge you to go get a test ride of them so you can make an informed decision.
