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.

Since you already have a Shine currently, stepping up to a Honda Unicorn / SP160 seems like a no-brainer, given that you are innately aware of the Honda ownership experience and you mainly plan to use it for commuting. If you want more feature-rich and sporty offerings, then the Bajaj Pulsar N160 SS and TVS Apache RTR 160 4V should be considered. These bikes promise more performance and tech while still being friendly and comfortable daily commuters. A test ride should help you decide which is the best one for your needs.

Since you've had a Unicorn in the past, the Honda SP160 will offer a smooth transition back to motorcycling after a long break. Do bear in mind that all the bikes you've shortlisted will feel a little strained at 80-90kph owing to their small displacement and relatively modest outputs. You should also look at the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and Bajaj Pulsar N160 models because they marry everyday usability with that added step of performance that your humdrum commuters don't offer. Take test rides of these bikes to see which one works best for you.
