All three options you have shortlisted are great in their own ways, and we'd advise you to choose between the Bajaj Pulsar N160 and the Apache RTR 160 4V TFT from our previous experience with them. If you are taller than 5'9, then the TVS bike will feel a little cramped, so we'd recommend the Bajaj if you're above that threshold.You should also take a look at the Honda Unicorn / SP160 as these bikes also meet your requirements, although they will have slightly lower performance compared to the aforementioned TVS and Bajaj bikes.Take a test ride of all the bikes you're considering before you go ahead with your purchase.

The Unicorn can't match the Pulsar in terms of outright performance, handling or features, but it consistently provides reliable transportation to lakhs of Indians, which makes it the better fit for your needs. It would also be advisable to throw the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V into the mix. To be sure, take test rides of all three before you make your decision.

In the 150/160cc commuter bike segment, options like the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and Bajaj Pulsar N160 are great bets if you want your commuter to pack in a little bit of spice and some feel-good features like a USD fork, TFT display and the like. These bikes are also quite fuel efficient and comfortable, making them good daily-use machines. If, on the other hand, you want a simple, no-nonsense commuter, then we'd advise you to look at the Honda Unicorn / SP160. Both are mechanically very similiar but the SP has more features and sharper styling than the Unicorn which has the same silhouette since it debuted 20 years ago. Depending on the sort of bike you prefer, make a choice between these three. To make an informed decision, we'd recommend test rides of all three before you make your purchase.

In the 125cc class, if you're looking for a comfortable bike that has a monoshock for its rear suspension, then look no further than the TVS Raider and Hero Xtreme 125R. Both are popular, proven, fuel efficient and have good ride and seating comfort, making them well-suited to daily use. These bikes should easily be able to return upwards of 50kpl in the real world even if you are a quick rider.Moving to the 150/160cc segment, options like the Honda Unicorn / SP160, Bajaj Pulsar N160 and TVS Apache RTR 160 4V are mainstays of the segment and opting for any of them would make for a safe bet. The Honda models are the more straightforward option while the TVS bikes and Bajaj are the sportier, more feature-rich options. It will be quite tough to see fuel economy of 50kpl and above on these machines unless you are a very gentle rider and expect real-world economy to hover around the 45kpl mark, depending on how you ride. Take a test ride of these machines before you make your decision and before you do, choose which category of bike suits you best and proceed accordingly.
