I am currently using an Ntorq 125 and planning to upgrade to a bike. My height is 168 cm. My preferences include the Bullet 350, Guerrilla 450, CB300F, and Apache RTR 310. Daily usage will be in the city, with occasional long rides. Please guide me in choosing my first bike.

    Considering this is going to be your first bike, we would recommend you start with something approachable and friendly like the Honda CB300F or the TVS Apache RTR 310. The Honda bike’s USPs are its affordable price tag, low ownership costs and light weight paired with a low seat height. Meanwhile, the TVS bike will have more exciting performance, sharper handling, as well as a smorgasbord of features.
    Considering its near 200kg kerb weight, we'd recommend you steer clear of the Royal Enfield Bullet 350 and instead look at the Hunter 350, which has the same engine but is much lighter and more manageable. With its 40hp/40Nm output figures, the Guerrilla packs in very engaging performance and will be the most fun and exciting for a first-time buyer, but it can also feel overwhelming at times for a newer rider.
    Take an exhaustive test ride of all the options you shortlist to see which one fits you and your usage best.
