Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which one should I buy Ninja 400 or KTM RC 390 or BMW 310 GS?
  • All three bikes are good in their own forte. The 2022 Kawasaki Ninja 400 is priced at Rs 4,99,000, ex-showroom Delhi, which is the same price as the previous-gen bike. Mechanically, the Ninja 400 is identical to the older model, carrying on with the 399cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine with 45.3PS and 37Nm on tap. The 2022 Kawasaki Ninja 400 will come with a twin-LED headlamp and a semi-digital instrument cluster. If we talk about RC 390, while maintaining its sporty nature, KTM has also managed to make the 2022 RC 390 a bit more practical when it comes to everyday riding. This is done via a wider clip-on handlebar, redesigned split (and more cushioned) seat setup and a larger tank to better grip with your knees. On the other hand, improvements to the engine, suspension and brakes have significantly enhanced the overall riding experience of the baby GS. It feels more polished, is more capable off-road, and has better equipment for an asking price that’s not only cheaper than before but also much more affordable than the KTM 390. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city and brand for dealership details.
Q. Which one should i buy Kawasaki Ninja 400 or the Honda CBR 500R?
  • It would be unfair to give a verdict here as the bikes have not been launched yet. You are requested to wait till the official launch. Stay tuned.
Q. Which is the best in 400cc segment between KTM RC390 and Kawasaki Ninja400?
  • The Ninja 400 is identical to the older model, carrying on with the 399cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine with 45.3PS and 37Nm on tap. This bike now also gets an updated slip-and-assist clutch that Kawasaki claims, has 20% lighter lever action than before. This should make it effortless to ride on roads with stop-go traffic. On the other hand, the ABS, much better tyres, projector headlamps, more power, and all this at a cheaper price, makes the RC390 feel like a bargain. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for details.
