I'm currently having a 2013 FZ-S, and in the past had 2004 Pulsar 150. As in few years, the inevitable time to upgrade is in the horizon, I'm looking for a new ride. This time definitely something above 250 and below 500. That brings me to a HUGE list of bikes [emoji39] that's yummy but should it be the Royal Enfield Clan or KTM pocket rocket or the delicious Benelli or the new kid Mojo or the dynamic Dominar or stay with Yamaha... Every brand has it's pros and cons, I'm sure Royal Enfield doesn't suite me well, mainly due to the fit and finish in relation to the Japanese bikes. But, with family and occasional ride with my better half, pillion comfort is important. Which makes R15s makes it look very attractive, but that below my filter of 250-500 cc bikes. Hmm! Looks like it is becoming very difficult. Anyway, Benelli looks promising in terms of pillion comfort, looks like I'm leaning more towards Benelli... [emoji53]

I really want a... I'm confused here... Guess I need help.

My priorities ordered in impotence;
1. Handling
2. Good pillion support
3. ABS
4. Daily commute of 60Kms
5. Good riding posture for 90% city riding

Your opinions are welcome, am I missing something here enlighten me, I know we can't ask for everything in one bike, but it can have a decent compromise. Not like KTM RC290's miniscule pillion seat level of compromise.

Help!

Benelli TNT 300 is really a very good bike as it offers superb riding comfort for both, looks, sound, road presence, abs, twin cylinders, decent milage except for bad service availability and cost of maintenance..
One other option you can consider is royal Enfield Himalayan FI, YES fuel injection has come to Himalayan, it offers the best riding comfort for both, a lot of small problems which were there before are now sorted, good service, decent milage, now better low and mid range power, handles very good, looks superb, only bad thing is no abs and little vibes on the handle bars..
And last option is bajaj dominar.
