In the 650cc segment, both Kawasaki and Triumph offer multiple options which cater to different use cases so before you start looking at a particular bike, its important to figure out which one suits you best. In the Kawasaki bike lineup you have the Z650, Z650RS, Ninja 650, Vulcan S and Versys 650. If you're mainly going to be riding in the city, any of them - except the Versys - will be a good tool for the job. Pick the one you like the styling and rider's position of the most. From Triumph bike lineup, you have the 660cc Trident, Daytona and Tiger Sport. Since you'll be using the bike mainly in the city, the Trident and Daytona make more sense and we’d advise choosing the one you prefer in terms of looks and seating position. The Daytona is a fair deal more powerful than the Trident so that's something to bear in mind. Another point to keep in mind that these imported motorcycles are generally more complicated and expensive to own and maintain.

If you want a 650cc bike that can be used daily, the models at the forefront are the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 and BSA Gold Star 650. Both have torquey engines - albeit ones that sound and behave very differently - with upright ergonomics making them a good fit for daily usage. Do bear in mind that both bikes are much heavier than your current Honda CB350 H'ness and will demand some caution before you get used to their size and heft.If you want something a little more unique, then the Kawasaki Z650 or Z650RS makes for genuinely usable big bikes. While their prices are more than double those of the Royal Enfield and BSA, they really are hassle-free, punchy, well-built machines that will serve you well for a long time.One thing to note with the Kawasaki 650s is that they have low ground clearance, which could be a factor that influences your purchase if your city doesn't have good roads.

Since budget and engine size aren’t concerns, and considering your physical condition, we recommend the Kawasaki 650 range - Z650, Ninja 650, or Z650RS. All three are easy to handle in the city and powerful enough for highway use. Their plush suspension setups will also help with your back issues.If you want something that's not as big as the Kawasaki 650s, you can take a look at either of the Honda 300s - CB300F and CB300R. Both are lightweight machines with low seat heights as well as comfy suspension setups.
