Questions you may find useful

I am seeking a versatile bike suitable for city commuting, highway travel, and challenging roads, including off-road conditions. My primary concern is the comfort of both me and my mother, who will be the primary passenger. I am 6 ft tall, my budget is 2 lacs, and I expect a minimum of 30 kmpl. I have considered the Triumph Scrambler 400X, but the pillion seat height is a concern. I am now considering the Speed 400 and CB350. I do not favour RE or KTM bikes. Please provide your suggestions. Regards.

I am confused between the Triumph Speed 400, Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350, and Honda CB350RS. Which one would you recommend for comfortable city rides along with occasional long rides?
