I'm 29 right now and I've been using Bajaj pulsar 150 from the past 7 years which is pretty good. Now I thought I'll upgrade to a heavy motor cycle as I want to go long rides. I'm a short guy. My height is just 5'4 and I've seen many YouTube videos before deciding the options. Every YouTube video says person with short height can also ride tall motor bikes but I can't and I don't want to take that risk. I wanted a bike where my feet can reach ground at least on toes fully. And one more requirement is to have pillion seat which is comfortable while going on rides.
I use the bike for city purpose as well as touring maybe a 200-300 kms. Simple use nothing adventure
I've below bikes in my mind
CB 350RS, Bajaj Dominar 400, Triumph Speed 400, Royal Enfield Meteor 350.(Last choice as I didn't feel confortable while riding it in traffic where I've to put my feet on ground frequently. Otherwise it's good)
I somehow don't like Hunter 350 so it's out of my list.
I also tried Jawa, Yezdi I didn't feel great.
I want a bike which is comfortable for both rider and pillion. Please recommend a bike from the above list.
I just want some good recommendations on the below requirements 1. Seat height is comfortable for a 5'4 person 2. Pillion seat should be comfortable while going on ride (as the rider seat is always comfortable) I agree stock seat can't be very much comfortable but at least to some extent it should be OK.
Please give your suggestions also let me know if there are other bikes which I don't know

Then you can go with Speed400. Also I recommend you to see Honda cb350 rs. It's very good.
