Question Most comfortable 100cc bike

Hi everyone.
I need to buy a 100cc-125cc motorcycle.
The main priority for me is comfort.I ride for about 50kms everyday.
So please suggest a bike that is the most comfortable for back-pain as I suffer from back problems.

I prefer bajaj or hero honda.
1. 5'6" height
2. daily 40kms commute
3. Mileage at least 60km/liter
4. Low maintenance
5.decent resale value
6. budget~Rs.55000

Really like the discover but don't know how comfortable it is(test drive too short) and is supposed to have more maintenance.
Please comment.

Thank you.

Go for the Yamaha Gladiator SS, it is an extremely comfortable bike,
other than that, give the TVS Jive a look too, it is a light wieght, hassle free motorcycle with good enough fuel efficiency and a comfortable upright riding position! I recommend you to test ride both the Jive and the Gladiator SS 125
and then come to a conclusion.

I have heard that Bajaj is soon going to launch the Discover 125 again with some changes...most probably next month.

You can wait until then and give it a try. It's expected to be priced around 47k ex showroom according to a news...

If you can't wait that long, try the HH Passion Plus (not Pro). It's a decent 100cc bike which meets all your requirements.

Try yamaha ybr 110. If you can strech your budget then Pulsar 135 is the bike with best of both worlds i.e mileage and performance.

I would really like to know more. How much time span are we talking about.
I really do like the discover series- time-tested, sleek,efficient and economical.
But I keep hearing that bajaj bikes are crude and inherently prone to more maintenance problems(than say a hero honda).
Please comment.
I personally just cant get over the fact that hero-honda and honda bikes have no 'engine kill switch'.
I travel through a total of 12 signals during my daily commute and cant imagine no kill switch
Thanks again.

Do the Discover range of bikes have an engine kill switch? I don't think so...
