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.

Since you're shopping in the 150/160cc segment and want flashy looks, good features and decent mileage too, here are all the options you should consider. The TVS Apache RTR 160 4V is a smooth, comfortable yet decently sporty machine. Also, since you mentioned that you want a more manageable machine, we'll stick with options that have a low seat and are lightweight. In a similar vein, you can also consider the Bajaj Pulsar N160 and Honda SP160, too. If you can extend your budget, bikes like the KTM 160 Duke and Yamaha MT-15 will also fit the bill because they have punchy performance, yet return good fuel efficiency and are lightweight and manageable too.

There are two types of bikes you can consider - sporty, liquid-cooled 160cc streetfighters and air-cooled, sporty-looking 160cc commuter bikes. In the former category, your options are the KTM 160 Duke and Yamaha MT-15, while in the latter, bikes like the Bajaj Pulsar N160 and TVS Apache RTR 160 4V can be considered. If you don't mind lower fuel efficiency, then the Bajaj Pulsar NS200 can also be a fun option within your budget. Another option that can be considered is the Royal Enfield Hunter 350, which will have a very different engine feel from any other option listed above, but will be comfortable and decently fuel-efficient. Something you can also consider if you're open to an ADV is the Hero Xpulse 210, which ticks all the boxes you want.

Since you haven’t specified your budget or exact usage, here are some credible options across both segments:In the 125cc sporty space, strong choices include the TVS Raider, Hero Xtreme 125R, and Honda CB125 Hornet.

Most of these models offer ABS on at least one variant, as you requested.In the 150–160cc category, sporty commuters like the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and Bajaj Pulsar N160 are good picks. For larger riders, the Pulsar N160 offers a more spacious ride. And even though it is more than two decades old at this point, the trusty Honda Unicorn is worth considering if you want a no-nonsense but solid and comfortable commuting partner.For liquid-cooled options in the 150–160cc space, only the KTM 160 Duke and Yamaha MT-15 V2 fit the bill. Both are great for commuting, though their design may not be classically elegant.
