Q. I wish to buy a street bike. I’m short and I have selected 4 bikes. I am single so I need to pick my mother and father may be, so which bike is good for a pillion rider? My dream bikes are BMW G310R, Honda CB300R, Benelli TNT 300 or Yamaha MT 03.
  • Yamaha bikes are the best in terms of quality and Honda is the king of pricing. So decide what matters more to you and get that.BMW
  • I have CB 300R, Using it from April 2019. Its all quality and Good ride, Low maintenance. Pillion comfort is very poor though.
  • Blindly go for triumph speed 440 , if you are not short i would have recommended triumph scram 400x....these two are loaded with every features and best bikes with amazing and unbelievably cheap exshowroom price

Q. Gd eve team, which is best, NINJA 300 or Yamaha MT 03? Let me know on what basis you're listing your options, whether you see BHP , NM or Mileage? I am curious to know about TVS zeppelin also, your comment on that please.
  • Hello Vivek, The Yamaha MT-03 has not been launched in India yet, and is unlikely to enter the country any time soon. The Ninja 300 on the other hand has been heavily localised with competitive pricing. It's a good all-rounder with a decent balance of efficiency and power. The TVS Zeppelin is just in its concept stage as of now. We believe TVS will take at least a year to bring the Zeppelin to production. Even then, it is likely to have only a small-capacity motor as the brand- known for sporty motorcycles would just be testing waters with a cruiser.
Q. Which would be better in price and performance between Yamaha MT 03, KTM Duke390 and BMW G310R?
  • Go for duke 390 because low maintenance cost but bad mileage and it has super top speed I have crossed 170 and its 2020 model

    I'm waiting for the 2022 

    I'm waiting for the 2022 yamaha r3, Well the legacy of this bike has turned out to be better than any bike in th rc line up or any other bike of this segment.The sheer aggression this bike has on offer is great too.The dual cylinder enginegives negligible atrocities in terms of heating and the look of this machine turns heads always.
