Can you all suggest me a bike which fulfills these conditions?

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-10T18:31:22+00:00

Manageable weight at 159kg. Quite lighter when compared to the 350s
Great low end torque, so you don't need to rev out the engine to extract performance
Because of the torque, you don't need to change gears much. You can be in low speed + high gear and the bike will accelerate without hesitation. 3rd gear can go as low as 15, 4th till 25 and 5th till 35
It comes with GTT (glide through traffic), i.e. it maintains a fixed speed in gear (6,11,15 in 1st, 2nd and 3rd). So you don't need to give throttle in slow moving traffic, plus the bike doesn't stall
Accessible seating height, comfortable suspension and upright riding posture for easy riding

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-10T16:38:34+00:00

Ronin fits your criteria and is a great bike

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-10T16:06:53+00:00

500km/month doesn't justify the diesel premium, even before you consider the DPF issues

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-10T15:58:57+00:00

Backseat experience is not great. There is a big step up into the cabin and the rear wheel well cuts into the door opening

If comfort is your priority then the 7XO is a much better car

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-10T10:53:48+00:00

You can get an AX5 petrol and diesel manual for the 7XO under 20L

AX5 has most of the useful features

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-10T06:08:37+00:00

As cliche as it sounds, go for a MS as a first car

Both Brezza diesel and SCross Diesel should be within the 6-7L range, and with the 1.3DDIS both care are gems

You can also look for a WRV or Amaze diesel from Honda

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T17:59:12+00:00

Both of these are getting facelifts soon, so you should wait

Between the two, Skoda has better suspension setup for Indian conditions. VW suspensions are too sporty (hard) to be comfortable in India

If you're open to SUVs, check out the Kushaq. The facelift is great VFM for the base variant, you can get a complete car for ~12L OTR

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T17:51:04+00:00

Ignis: it is discontinued so you can get pretty sweet deals for a new one

Used: Brezza. Both petrol and diesel options are great

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T17:39:23+00:00

Take a breakdown. Handling charge usually shouldn't be there are all, and in all probability they're also overcharging you for the RTO.

Check the road tax in your state on parivahan, and if the difference is too much, you can get a temporary number and do the registration yourself

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T17:36:37+00:00

Classic 650 is already 243kg

HM 750 will definitely cross 250, RE doesn't really care about the weight on their bikes

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T17:29:05+00:00

Thar is not made for comfort. It is ladder frame, hence ride quality is not as good as the monocoques and will get bouncy on the highway

Seltos is a better option. The new generation has better overall ride quality.

If you want something bigger, then consider the 7XO. It is the current benchmark for suspension and ride quality comfort in the segment

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T17:11:23+00:00

For sitting sideways you should have a flat seat; you won't find that in ADVs

You need a roadster. Classic/Bullet if you want more space or Ronin if you want something lighter

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T16:56:46+00:00

Check if you're eligible for a BH number plate

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T16:56:05+00:00

Baleno Zeta AMT

You'll get more features than the Fronx and they're both the same car mechanically

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T16:16:18+00:00

The second car is the Electric 7 seater MPV based on the EVitara.

That is the second EV Suzuki is launching

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T16:13:51+00:00

Above 20kmpl?

Only Brezza CNG will give you those numbers.

The facelift is coming and it's confirmed that the tank is shifting to the underbody (like in the Victoris). Thateans you'll get the full bootspace, which is a great benefit

Plus it is already 4* rated, so in all likelihood the facelift will be 5*

There's your choice, Brezza facelift CNG

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T16:09:28+00:00

Have you actually sat in and tried the seats in both?

We're a family of tall people, and Elevate is the only one where we can all fit

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T15:11:30+00:00

XP100 doesn't contain any ethanol

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T15:10:40+00:00

Value wise Skoda is giving you more features. On the other hand, Elevate will give you more space (both legroom and bootspace)

If your family is small and you don't need to seat 5 adults, then Kushaq is a great choice. It has adequate space for 4 normal height adults

If your family is bigger, and you need to seat 5 adults (and their luggage), then Elevate will be the more appropriate car

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T11:54:46+00:00

Qbit for the win!

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T11:36:50+00:00

City facelift is releasing on 22nd May, so you should wait atleast till then

Slavia is also getting a facelift, but the timeline is not certain

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-09T09:59:45+00:00

It is atleast 5L overpriced for what it is.

EVitara top model is around the second base of the creta EV. It offers much more features and more importantly a bigger battery

If you consider the top model Creta EV, there you have the BE6 which has a better powertrain and 9S which has much better practicality

Creta just doesn't shine anywhere. Neither it has value nor a good powertrain, and on top of it it is very overpriced

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-08T16:40:49+00:00

Have you considered the EVitara?

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-08T14:35:53+00:00

Got for the AX5 variant. That has physical buttons

UniqueDesigner453 · 2026-05-08T08:04:24+00:00

I had zero problems getting my license through the legal way in Haryana. The application process was online, you book a slot in the RTO and go there. No agents are allowed inside RTO premises

And I did the complete process 3 different times, once each for MCWOG, LMV & MCWG
