Since you have said that you have a lower back issue and that you need a comfortable riding position, we'd recommend looking at bikes like the Royal Enfield Hunter / Classic / Bullet 350 instead. The Meteor is a comfortable cruiser, but by virtue of being a cruiser, its feet-forward, relaxed riding position will put more strain on your lower back while going over bad roads. In the Honda 350 lineup, all three machines are very similiar mechanically, and the main differences are in terms of styling, pricing and small feature additions and subtractions. So, we would recommend going with the one you are attracted to the most. A test ride of whatever you shortlist is imperative before you make a decision.

The Royal Enfield Meteor 350 has a very manageable 765mm seat height, which should suit your stature. But if you want the lowest 350cc Royal Enfield bike, then it would be the Goan Classic. The Goan has an even lower 750mm perch, which will be even easier to flatfoot.Do bear in mind that the Goan Classic's handlebars are taller than usual, and this is something you should pay attention to on a test ride. We'd advise taking test rides of both the Meteor and Goan and pick whichever one suits you best and the one you prefer the look of more.

The Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and the TVS Apache RTX 300 are two very different motorcycles. The Meteor is a relaxed cruiser, while the RTX is an adventure bike, a sporty streetfighter.Objectively speaking, the RTX will be more comfortable and capable in just about every situation you'll find yourself in. However, it is quite a tall machine, so if you are a shorter rider, this could be something to look out for, especially at slower speeds in city traffic. Instead of the Meteor, we'd actually recommend considering the Classic / Bullet 350 because they have a more comfortable and upright seating position, which will be more conducive to comfort over your long daily commute. A test ride of these bikes will help you figure out which one is best for your needs.

While the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 that you have shortlisted is a good place to start, we'd actually recommend its retro siblings, the Royal Enfield Classic / Bullet 350. That's because the Meteor's more feet-forward and relaxed - lazier, if you will - riding position will put some stress on your tailbone after a while and more of the road bumps will filter through to your back. Instead, the Bullet and Classic with their neutral, upright ergonomics and spacious seats will be a better fit.In the Honda stable, we'd recommend you choose between the base CB350 and the CB350 H'ness because the CB350RS's seat isn't as spacious as its siblings.A test ride of these bikes with your preferred pillion will help you make an informed decision.

Between the Honda CB350, Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and Triumph Speed T4, the best all-rounder would be the Triumph. It offers more performance than the two air-cooled 350s and has a sportier chassis, too. You should also see comparable fuel economy figures on all three if ridden sensibly.That being said, take a test ride of all 3 to see which one suits you best before making a decision.

Since you have mentioned you want a cruiser style bike to ride in the city and keeping your stature in mind, your choices boil down to the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and its sibling, the Goan Classic 350.Both of these Royal Enfield bikes have low seat heights, which should help you plant your feet on the ground and aid confidence when negotiating stop-and-go traffic. Do bear in mind that these bikes with their feet forward and relaxed riding positions will put a lot of weight on your tailbone and transfer road bumps to your spine, so its worth taking a test ride to see whether or not you can live with this sort of position daily.If you want a lighter bike, then the TVS Ronin is a good option, although its seat height is a fair deal taller than the two RE 350s. Provided you have the confidence to manage a bike on your tiptoes, you can consider the TVS bike.

In the 350cc category, bikes like the Royal Enfield Hunter / Bullet / Classic 350, Honda CB350 trio and TVS Ronin - which is smaller but has comparable performance - are our top picks. Pick the one you like the look and riding experience of the most because all bikes are proven machines that will last you a long time. If you want something with a low seat height, the RE Hunter (790mm), Meteor (765mm) and Goan Classic (750mm) are your best bets. A test ride will help you decide.

For shorter durations, the Royal Enfield Meteor's feet-forward and generally more laid-back riding position will feel more comfortable. However, when you start spending more time in the saddle and over big bumps, your spine will bear the brunt of the jolt. It is because your arms and legs are outstretched. In comparison, the Royal Enfield Hunter's more neutral and upright riding position will be a better fit overall in all sorts of situations you will find yourself in. Coming to pillion comfort, that's where the Meteor will have the upper hand because of its spacious split pillion seat. Although, the Hunter isn't too bad, especially if you and your pillion aren't very large people. Take a proper test ride and pay attention to how both bikes behave over bad patches of road to determine which is the better option for you.

All three of the Royal Enfield 350s you have shortlisted will serve you well, but each has a different character. The Hunter 350 is the lightest and most affordable one and will be the most agile in the city, where you spend most of your time. The Bullet is a retro roadster with a commanding riding position that is going to feel quite a big larger. This will be the most comfortable bike owing to its neutral ergonomics and great suspension. The Meteor 350, with its laid-back rider triangle, will feel the most relaxed to sit on. But all your weight will be on your tailbone, which won't be ideal when tackling road imperfections. Of the three, the Hunter makes the most sense for your usage, but a test ride of all three will help clear the picture for you.

The Royal Enfield Hunter 350 is the lightest machine in the company's portfolio and will feel quite at home in the city and at the highway speeds you ride at. The Royal Enfield Bullet 350 is a neo-retro roadster that will have the most comfort owing to its spacious, upright ergonomics and lovely ride quality. The Meteor 350 will have the most laid-back seating position, but over bad roads, a lot of road imperfections will filter through to your spine. A test ride of all three should help you decide which is best for you.
