Questions you may find useful

Hi, I am planning to transition from a Honda Dio to a geared motorcycle. Although my dream bike is a Royal Enfield but I am a bit confused after looking at the Triumph Speed T4. My budget is around Rs. 2.5 lakh, although I can extend it to Rs. 2.75 lakh if required. I mostly ride within the city and currently have no plans for highway riding. I will also be riding with my mother and father occasionally. I am 5'5" tall, weigh 80 kg, and live in Chennai. I am trying to choose between the Royal Enfield Hunter 350, Royal Enfield Meteor 350, and Triumph Speed T4. I am also considering the Triumph Speed 400 if you feel extending my budget would be worthwhile.
