What you need is a 100cc or 125cc commuter. There is a wide range of options. Bajaj discover-100 and 125(and 150 if you want to consider it also), platina 100 and 125. HH Splendor and Passion are good bikes but not very refined but still proven models. Since you are new to riding why don't you try the TVS Jive. You can get rid of clutch action if you opt this. Pls mention your budget, fuel economy you are expecting and the average distance you will cover in a day.

budget is not a big issue but to get the right one.40 and above mileage,the more the better. 30 and above km is the distance covered in a single day.
125cc or higher as it needs to carry my weight tvs jive what is the mileage. as i need to learn a bike with gear, isnt it good to learn one with proper gear. bullet...straight to 350 cc to start biking? |

I suggest you learn to ride a geared bike first taking help from your friends or Xbhp members. Which city are you from? Get to a Offline G2G and take help from members.
Now that you know how to ride non-geared, you can learn geared in 1-2 days... There after, practice is required which you can do on a brand new geared bike that you will purchase. So, I will suggest you a geared bike only... Get Yamaha FZ16. Only its mileage is less, around 40, otherwise it matches all your needs. Or for great mileage, get a Bajaj Discover 150. It also matches most of your needs... Remember, big weight means brakes should be good too. |

Im 6.2ft also but only 65kgs. I recently bought my first geared bike after riding kine for 2 years. I learnt it within a day, its easy once u understand the gears
considering your height you can opt for honda unicorn or honda unicorn dazzler or suzuki gs150r all the above bikes have good power and deliver minimum mileage of 45kmpl

Bro, try a GS150R. I am of the same height and nearly 3 digits in weight. It was very comfortable for me to ride it.
