Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which bike is better, TVS Apache RR 310 or Royal Enfield Continental GT 650?
  • Selecting between the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 and TVS Apache RR 310 would depend on certain factors such as your budget, preference of the segment, performance figures, features required, etc. The Continental GT 650 is a fun to ride cafe racer. The GT’s sporty riding position makes it much more suitable for twisty mountain roads and even high-speed straight-line blasts. To top things off, the twin-cylinder motor provides the performance and refinement that the 535 simply couldn’t. On the other hand, TVS has done an incredible job in ironing out the sore spots of the Apache RR 310 with the BS6 update. It is loaded with tech, making it the most technologically advanced motorcycle in its class. The new prices are quite close to its fiercest rival -- the KTM RC 390. While it may lack the outright performance of the RC 390, the Apache RR 310 BS6 makes up for it by being a well-rounded machine that can do daily duties as well as corner carving or even touring, for that matter. For a better understanding of compatibility and riding comfort, we would suggest you take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.
Q. Which one is better Himalayan or GT 650
  • Both Royal Enfield Himalayan and Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 are brilliant options, however, selecting one would depend on certain factors such as your budget, preference of the segment, usage of the bike, features requirement, etc. The Himalayan BS6 is a well-rounded package which is now just that little bit better than before. The Himalayan certainly isn’t flawless or entirely satisfactory in any singular aspect, but it makes up for these gaps by painting a picture of opportunity, inciting you to travel and explore on a whim. On the other hand, the GT’s sporty riding position makes it much more suitable for twisty mountain roads and even high-speed straight-line blasts. 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 for dealership details.
Q. Which is best to buy between continental gt 650 or royal enfield interceptor 650
  • Selecting between the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 and Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 would depend on certain factors such as your budget, preference of the segment, performance figures, features required, etc. The Continental GT 650 is a fun to ride cafe racer. The GT’s sporty riding position makes it much more suitable for twisty mountain roads and even high-speed straight-line blasts. To top things off, the twin-cylinder motor provides the performance and refinement that the 535 simply couldn’t. On the other hand, if you are not on a limited budget, then you may definitely opt for the Interceptor 650. The bike offers a brilliant engine with loads of torque from the get-go and a nice soundtrack accompanying it. Quality and fit and finish levels are quite good and the motorcycle feels built to last. On top of that, the Interceptor 650 is the most affordable multi-cylinder bike in India. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.
