Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which is better, Suzuki V-Strom SX or Royal Enfield Himalayan?
  • I will definitely go for Himalayan because Royal Enfiled is offering a whopping 400cc engine at lower cost like around 2.7-2.89 lakhs where as V- strom is just a 250cc engine costing around 2.6 lakhs. The didn't like the looks though.
  • One and only answer the most better now Suzuki V-Strom sx ❤️
  • Both vehicles are great in their own forte. Suzuki V-Strom SX has loads of visual presence and looks like a big ADV bike. Handling is impressive by ADV standards. Relaxed riding ergonomics make it a great tourer. On the other hand, Royal Enfield’s Himalayan offers a more engaging riding experience, but you also end up saving quite a lot of money. Himalayan has great ergonomics for touring or stand-up riding, long-travel suspension aids in brilliant off-road riding, spoked rims, and tall ground clearance, switchable ABS helps to lock the rear wheel under off-road conditions. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your city and brand accordingly for dealership details.
Q. Which one is the best Bajaj Dominar 400, Himalayan, Classic 350 and MT-15 Version 2.0?
  • All the bikes are best in their own forte. The Bajaj Dominar 400 BS6 makes for a great urban motorcycle, as well as packing in the performance and comfort to make occasional touring a breeze. On the other hand, Royal Enfield Himalayan Motor has (nearly) retained its output and feels just as quick, despite meeting BS6. Certain components look and feel more rugged and premium. Truckloads of suspension travel and ground clearance, as always. and Royal Enfield Classic 350 revised ergonomics make it more comfortable. The new chassis makes it easier to ride in traffic. The bike feels a lot more refined now. Moreover, The updates to the Yamaha MT-15 V2 have definitely improved its handling but the lack of dual-channel ABS and bottom-end performance, coupled with the high asking price make it a pricey proposition. For a better understanding, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
