Recently Asked User Questions

Q. I am confused between Ninja 650 2020 KRT edition VS CBR 650R? Which one is better?
  • But what CBR 650r i mean the sound of in line 4 cylinders.. that is a huge missing with Kawasaki's twin parallel cylinders.. Once a CBR fan remains always a CBR FAN..Bcuz I had CBR 150R then Afterwards CBR250R.. Now waiting for CBR650R BS6 model..There's no comparison between CBR650R and Ninja 650..Im sorry if anyone got hurt with words.. but my Heart always fall for CBR only..❤️
  • CBR650R makes more power and at higher RPM and makes slightly lesser torque. Ninja being a twin cylinder engine makes more torque at lower rpm although it makes lesser power. Ninja 650 is good for long distance cruising. CBR with the 4 cylinder engine gives a sporty riding experience and makes more top speed than Ninja 650.
  • Honda reliability where kawasaki stands for refinement. Go for zx6r

Q. Confused between Triumph Trident 660 or Z900
Q. What to choose, Triumph Trident 660 or Triumph Tiger Sport 660?
  • It would be unfair to give a verdict here as Triumph Tiger Sport 660 hasn't launched yet. So we would suggest you wait for the bike to get launched for a fruitful comparison. Stay tuned for further updates. Follow the link to get an alert when Triumph Tiger Sport 660 is launched. On the other hand, the Trident delivers better on the sort of performance you’d expect from a “big bike” and this, in our books, makes it better value-for-money. The premium is well justified for the thrills you experience, courtesy of the 660cc triple engine. It handles well, and like a patient teacher, builds you up nicely for larger capacity motorcycles that you’d most likely upgrade to after a few years.

    Lovely machine 

    Have been owning this lovely machine since the past 7 years now.But every time i twist the throttle it feels as crisp as day one.It was a childhood dream of owning a kawasaki ninja ever since i had been watching a green ninja in our locality when i was about 15 years old.This bike is a bag full of everything you need to quench your thirst about motorcycle riding.It is always ready to take anything from bumper to bumper traffic as well as long hauls on the highway.The low and linear torque is what makes it special to be ridden in any riding environment.Its 650cc, 72bhp mill amazes you with a linear pick up, Non tiring long highway riding comfort, As well as its super efficient fuel economy.This kwacker is a daily riding calm machine.Tell you take it on the highway and unleash it to see a completely different side of it.And all this at a very affordable service cost with usual service intervals of 6months or 5-6k kms which i follow comes to around 5000-6000₹ depending on consumbles.Just remember not to drop the bike because kawasaki is a pocket burner in such repair costs.Overall it is one of the best big motorcycles available in the indian market today.

    It is an excellent commuter.I 

    It is an excellent commuter.I rode it every day 100km.It is tolerable on rides of 2-3 hours.I have not had any mechanical issues with it in 34000 km.It is fast enough and very stable.My commute speeds usually ranged from 100 - 150 kmph no problem.I have driven the bike on trips and commutes as fast as 185kmph.It is not a superbike but it will leave most cars and traffic in my rearview.

    Long rides 

    I own the bike and i can tell it's really good if you want to go on long rides or make hilly trips.But i would suggest you to change the exhaust to get some ground clearance.The tires are good but not so good on sharp turns on high speeds.
