     I will be thankful to you for providing me the details!

Answer
Vivek,

You should check and see how big the engine is, how much horsepower it produces, and how heavy the bike is. A large, heavy bike with a large engine may be able to go very fast, but it will not get good gas mileage.

A smaller bike that is lighter weight and has a smaller engine will usually go ALMOST as fast as a larger bike, but give you much better mileage. Motorcycles with one or two cylinders get the best gas mileage.

Let me know what kind of bike you'd like to get, and what country you are in, and I can give you some more ideas.
