Hey, I am an absolute beginner. I haven't ridden 2 wheelers much but I really love riding. Have a bit of scooty experience and just recently learnt how to handle the gears and the clutch....in fact I am still learning!

I am looking to buy my first bike. Budget is a bit tight at 1.25 lakhs since i want to buy it with my own earnings

Here's the 3 bikes I have finalised

Tvs raider sxc dd (lightest bike with Abs)
Hero xtreme 125r (dual channel abs)
Yamaha Fz v3 (only 150cc in this range)

Imp consideration:

As I said I am an absolute beginner. And because of my low weight and physique, i tend to wobble at low speeds, especially with pillion. So which of these 3 would be better for me?

My use case:

I don't have a long commute. I mostly will use it for roaming Bangalore and night rides when the ORR is empty
Will mostly ride alone, but at times with a 65kg pillion as well
I don't plan to upgrade in the future and see this is a long term investment

Have been researching like an absolute geek for the last 2 months. Pls share your inputs.

Thank you so much
