Q. Main travelling is city commutes and weekned tours, confused between 250 Adventure, Hness CB350 and Himalayan?
  • As per your requirement, we suggest you go for Royal Enfield Himalayan. The Himalayan BS6 is a slightly more well-rounded and desirable motorcycle than before. A bike that’s built for no roads can handle bad roads with commendable ease. In fact, the Himalayan turns you into a bit of a hooligan in the city, because even when you’re faced with the tallest of speed breakers and the deepest of potholes, slowing down isn’t really a very high priority. Need something to ferry you to the office and back? No problem. Want to cruise the highways on weekends? It’ll do it all day and all night long. Finally, had your leave approved and want to ride to Ladakh? This is just the bike for the job. It’ll even keep you entertained on the twisty bits of tarmac you’ll find on the way. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.

User Reviews of Comparison

  • KTM 250 Adventure
  • The ktm 250 adventure's 248.8cc engine is identical to the one in the ktm 250 duke and the husqvarna 250s, Down to the state of tune (30hp/24nm).Paired to a six-speed gearbox, It has the same gear ratios as well, And the end result is a familiar riding experience.While accelerating, The engine only begins to come alive post 4, 000rpm, With a notable surge after 7, 500rpm, And all the way to the 10, 500rpm limiter.Our vbox tests confirm that despite weighing more than the husqvarna 250s, The difference in acceleration is minimal.
