Default Help me choose a Cruiser bike.

hello thumpers,
i have alwys been fascinated by bullet 350.. and its kinda my dream bike..
i feel its the best cruiser bike in India.. but after speaking with a few guys i feel its perhaps not the best bike for long rides..

I want to buy a bike within next 3-4 months... my budget is max 1 lakh..
Follwing are the expectations from my dream bike..

1. the bike shd be able to endure long rides.. i mean rides to ladhakh or rides in himalayas etc.
2. the bike shd have a very comfortable seating position, handling and breakes..
3. minimum mileage of 30 km per litre.
4. it shd feel like an ultimate cruising machine.

I have follwing idea in my mind.
I will get a second hand bullet 350 preferably 1980-90 model.. with originial CI engine. and do the following modifications.
1. Cruiser bike type seats, handle etc.
2. Front and rear disk breaks..( if it is advisable to do so)
3. gas filled shock absorbers.
if u guys like this idea and feel that this idea will meet my expecations.. plz tell me.. and also suggest some more modifications in the bike which will be within that budget..

thumpers plz help.. and share ur knowledge..
