First things first, the Royal Enfield Bullet and Classic 350 are essentially the same bike in different colours with minor cosmetic differences, so whichever variant you choose of either bike, your riding experience is going to largely be the same.The Classic 350 Halcyon sits just above the base variant and comes with a rear drum brake, single-channel ABS, simpler components such as mirrors and rear brake pedal, and a halogen headlamp with pilot lights.The Bullet 350 standard black and black gold are the higher variants, which means they will have dual-channel ABS, a rear disc brake, chrome mirrors, and better finishing for the rear brake pedal, among other small cosmetic differences. These two variants are mechanically identical, with the primary difference being the paint scheme and the Black Gold’s black powder-coated finish compared to the Standard’s chrome finishing.It is strongly recommended that you don't change tyre sizes to anything other than what the manufacturer recommends, as that will affect the bike's mileage, chassis balance, handling, and stability, among other things.

Between the two options you have shortlisted, we would steer you toward the Triumph Speed T4 because it is a more approachable and lighter machine inside the city and also has peppier performance.You can also look at the Honda CB350 models because they are comfortable, reasonably fuel efficient and shouldn't be too expensive to maintain.In a similiar vein, from the Royal Enfield 350cc range, the Hunter and the Bullet/Classic will be a good choice because all three are comfortable, smooth and reliable machines. We recommend a thorough test ride of all the options you shortlist before pulling the trigger.

Of the three bikes you have shortlisted, we would suggest you choose between the Triumph Speed T4 and the Royal Enfield Scram 440. These two will be more comfortable, although the Royal Enfield Guerrilla will give you more performance on the highway. Since you've already owned a Royal Enfield Classic, the latest Royal Enfield Bullet / Classic is also worth taking a good look at because they will offer you good comfort and ride quality - both of which are important to you. You can alternatively also look at the Honda CB350 models because they are comfortable, smooth, well-built and torquey. A test ride of your shortlisted bikes will help you decide which is the best option for you.

Both the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and Honda CB350 are great machines and there's not much to choose between them. Both are comfortable, have smooth engines and great looks as well as good quality fit and finish. The one tangible area where the Classic is better than the CB350 is that its gearing is very well judged which paired with the engine's beautiful low-end torque makes the bike easy to ride in stop-and-go Mumbai traffic. On the flip side, the Honda comes with a slip/assist clutch and also weighs a good deal less than the Royal Enfield bike, which could sway the balance in its favour. We'd strongly recommend you take a test ride of both to understand which bike's demeanour suits you best before you make a decision.

In this category, bikes like the Royal Enfield Hunter/Bullet/Classic 350, Triumph Speed 400, Harley Davidson X440 and the Honda CB350 models are worth considering. The Honda and RE 350s will have a relaxed, laidback riding experience while the Triumph 400 will feel noticeably more eager - although its not going to be overenthusiastic like a KTM 390. Do take test rides of your shortlisted options to see which one suits you best.

The Triumph Speed T4 will make for a better all-rounder because of its larger and more flexible 398cc engine. It is perfectly usable inside the city, and on the highway, you can cruise at early triple-digit speeds without breaking a sweat. If you want similar looks but more performance and better componentry, the Triumph Speed 400 makes a good case for itself. The Yamaha XSR155 is a much smaller - and lighter - bike that will have better handling and fuel economy, but will feel a little out of its element on the highway. You should also look at the Royal Enfield Bullet / Classic / Hunter 350 models (depending on your budget and design preferences). They are smooth, charming and comfortable machines that can be used both inside the city and on the highway. For similar reasons, the Honda CB350 trio also warrant serious consideration. A test ride of all of these, as well as anything else you're considering, will help you decide which one is the best fit for you.
