  • Selecting between the KTM RC 200 and Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 would depend on certain factors such as your budget, preference of the segment, features required, comfort, usage of the bike, etc. While the Gixxer SF 250 offers a sporty riding experience, it isn’t an out-and-out sportbike. It does offer an affordable, and potentially more fun alternative, making it a great option for more mature riders. On the other hand, The KTM RC 200 continues to be one of the best beginner’s sports bikes you can buy if you’re looking to get into track riding or racing. However, the aggressive riding posture and a steep price tag make you reconsider the options. For a better understanding of compatibility and riding comfort, we would suggest you to take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Q. I shortlisted these motorcycle Gixxer 250 naked, Honda highness, dominar 250 and ktm duke 200. Which would be better pick? I want to do occasional touring and weekend short rides.
  • As per your requirements, you may you for any bike among Suzuki Gixxer 250, Bajaj Dominar 250 and Honda H'ness. The CB 350 makes the best of both worlds: it’s not only powerful but also makes most of its torque lower down the rev range. Not to mention, it’s the second lightest bike after the BS6 Jawa in its segment. If you like the badge of Honda and looking for a easy to handle bike with comfortable ergonomics and practicality, Honda H'ness would be a great pick. As a motorcycle, the Dominar 250 does one thing right -- it is fit to purpose. The Dominar 400, for example, always felt like a confused motorcycle as the 390’s motor is too manic to make for a great sports tourer. It gets the job done, but just about. On the other hand, the Dominar 250’s motor felt boring on the KTM, but combined with the comfortable tourer the Dominar is, it works beautifully. It truly feels like it deserves the ‘sports tourer’ tag. So while Bajaj might pitch it as the entry-level Dominar, we think the 250 is the Dominar in its perfect form. If we talk about Suzuki Gixxer, it offers a good balance between comfort and power performance. It is Comfortable in the city and on the highway, it has big bike looks and a decent amount of features. You may compare all these bikes accordingly.
