Since you've said that most of your riding is relegated to city riding with a pillion, where comfort and fuel efficiency are top priorities, we'd recommend you stick to a premium 125cc commuter. The TVS Raider is a good option as it offers a comfortable ride and a spacious seat for the rider and pillion. In that category, our top picks are the TVS Raider and Hero Xtreme 125R. Both are available with variants that have a long, single-piece seat, so pillion comfort as well as fuel efficiency will be taken care of. In case you do want to scratch the itch of getting a larger machine, you will be well served by the TVS Ronin as well as the Royal Enfield Hunter 350. Both have smooth, torquey engines, plush suspension and are large enough to carry a pillion. Take a test ride of these bikes and see which one you prefer the most before purchasing.

Since you have owned a Honda motorcycle in the past, sticking with the brand and getting the Hornet 2.0 and NX200 will make sense. Both are decently peppy, refined, comfortable and fuel-efficient machines which should be reliable in the long run. The Yamaha MT-15 will be the lightest machine on your list, and it is likely to also be the most fuel-efficient. Despite its small engine, it does offer a good level of performance. You should also take a look at the XSR155 because this is a more spacious motorcycle while being mechanically very similiar to the MT.The TVS Ronin and Royal Enfield Hunter 350 will have the most comfort and will be different to ride than the other bikes owing to their relaxed engines. Do bear in mind that you are unlikely to see a fuel economy figure of 40kpl unless you ride very sedately on either of them. Since the machines you have shortlisted are very diverse, we'd recommend a test ride of all before you make a decision.

Of all the options you have shortlisted, we'd recommend choosing between the TVS Ronin, Royal Enfield Hunter and Honda CB350. This is because all three are proven products with reliable engines, two-up comfort and decent fuel economy. Coming to the Yamaha XSR155, that bike is a very new launch, although it does come with familiar underpinnings and a trusted Japanese badge on the tank, so we would recommend you take a test ride for yourself before you go ahead with your purchase.

Both the TVS Ronin and Honda H'ness CB350 are perfectly capable and comfortable machines, so you can go with whichever one appeals to you more.You can also consider the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 at a similar price point, as it’s now a well-rounded, capable city bike.

We'd recommend you and your father pick between the TVS Ronin and Royal Enfield Hunter 350. Both meet the criteria that you have listed above but offer markedly different riding experiences. The Hunter has a slow-revving, torque-rich, long-stroke motor with a lovely thump mated to an agile and responsive chassis that sounds like it shouldn't work but we (and lakhs of people who have bought one) think that it does.The Ronin's engine is similiar in character but feels relatively more sporty as does its handling. It is also a much lighter bike and has a lower perch, so for shorter riders, it will be easier to manage. Its oddball looks aren't to everyone's tastes and TVS' service doesn't have a stellar reputation either - two points to bear in mind from an owner's POV. Take test rides of both bikes to see which one resonates more with you before you make a decision.
