I am 31 years old and have been using a 2016 Jupiter for the last 9 years. I now want to shift to a mid-range bike around 150cc. My riding pattern is around 60km per day, five days a week, with about 70% normal traffic and the remaining in heavy traffic. Can you advise me on the best options available in Hyderabad with a mileage of around 45kmpl? I am 5'10" with a lean build. I have been riding a 2018 Gixxer (my cousin’s) for the last month and generally feel comfortable on it, though I experience slight lower back pain occasionally. Also, please advise on the XSR 155.

In the 150/160cc space, there are lots of comfortable and fuel-efficient options like the Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Yamaha FZ models and the Suzuki Gixxer duo. Any of these will fit the bill for your usage, although our top picks would be the Bajaj and the TVS - between the two, go for the Pulsar as it's a more spacious bike.Coming to the XSR155, since it is largely mechanically similar to the Yamaha MT-15, it should offer a similar riding experience as well, which is to say it will be a reasonably comfortable yet brisk machine. However, we would suggest you take a test ride for yourself before deciding.

I want to choose a motorcycle as a beginner and am still learning to ride. My daily usage is about 30 km. Which bike would you recommend that offers good mileage along with good looks?

Since you are learning to ride and haven't specified your budget, we will stick to recommending 125-150cc machines as they are affordable, fuel-efficient and beginner-friendly. Since you want a bike that stands out from the crowd, we would recommend considering the TVS Raider, Hero Xtreme 125R and Honda CB125 Hornet in the 125cc class. All are peppy, frugal and have catchy styling while being very easy to ride. All three come with single-channel ABS on at least one variant, and we'd recommend going for one of the ABS variants, considering you are a newer rider. In the 150/160cc class, bikes like the Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Suzuki Gixxer and Honda SP160 would be a good bet.

I currently own a TVS Radeon bike and travel 50+ km daily (about 70% highway, 30% traffic). My height is 5 ft 10 in. Please suggest a bike for daily commuting that offers comfort and performance.

Since you haven't specified your budget, we'll recommend something that feels like a step up without hurting your wallet too much. You can take a look at the Bajaj Pulsar N160, Suzuki Gixxer 150 and TVS Apache RTR 160 4V - all three are comfortable and fuel-efficient machines which will feel like an upgrade over your Radeon. Do take a test ride and see which one fits you best, because your daily running is quite high. The Apache is a little cramped in the way it folds your legs, so you may want to take a look at the other two.

I’m planning to buy a bike with a budget of around ₹1.30 lakh. My daily office commute is about 60 km (round-trip) and I’ll do occasional highway rides with my wife, so seat comfort is non-negotiable. Which bike should I buy?

Something comfortable in the 160cc space, like the Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V or Suzuki Gixxer will fit the bill for your requirements, although you may need to extend your budget a little bit for some of the higher variants. You can also look at some 125cc bikes like the Hero Glamour, Honda Shine and TVS Raider if you don't want to stretch your budget, but with two people on board, the 125s will feel a little breathless at highway speeds.

I currently ride a Bajaj Platina 100, and my daily run is around 150 km. I’m looking to upgrade to a bike with better mileage and improved comfort, especially since I’m 5′ 11″ tall. Could you suggest suitable upgrade options?

Autocar India

A good upgrade without sacrificing mileage from your 100cc Platina would be something in the 150-160cc space, like the Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Suzuki Gixxer, Honda Unicorn/SP160, or the Yamaha FZ lineup. If you want to go beyond that, the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V, Honda Hornet 2.0 or Bajaj Pulsar NS200 will fit the bill. Take a long test ride to see which option suits you best.

If you want to stay in the same category, bikes like the Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Suzuki Gixxer, or the Yamaha FZ models are worth considering.If you want to step up to a bigger bike but still want it to feel approachable, the Bajaj Pulsar N250, Suzuki Gixxer 250, TVS Apache RTR 200 4V, or the Honda CB300F will fit the bill.Some other options you can consider are the Yamaha MT-15 V2 and the KTM 160 Duke, because even though their displacement is lower, they pack in engaging performance, but are still very usable on a daily basis.
