I am planning to buy a new bike immediately, with a budget of up to Rs. 5 lakh. My typical usage includes weekday rides of 5-10 km and weekend rides of 125-150 km. Comfort is a key priority, as I experience occasional back stiffness and hip discomfort on long rides. I mostly ride solo but occasionally travel with my wife and 9-year-old daughter. Please suggest the most suitable bike from my shortlist: Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, Triumph Scrambler 400X, Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650, Royal Enfield Meteor 350, Triumph Speed 400, Honda CB350RS, TVS Apache RTX).
