Q. I am driving 100 km daily 30 in highway 15 km in city traffic. Is it good for Mumbai. What is the mileage and top speed? Currently I have Apache RTR 200 4V and want to upgrade my bike and my experience. - Himalayan?

Answer

Himalayan will give you 28-32 on highway and 24 in city traffic. In fact, Himalayan is very comfortable but not good for regular city riding or daily commuting.

Answer

Mileage you get 30 to 33. Good for city and highway

Answer

Maneuvering in city traffic is not a problem. mileage varies based on traffic, in heavy traffic it gives 20-25 km/l. In normal conditions it gives around 30 km/l. the top speed i have gone on this is 110 not sure it could maintain/sustain lot more than that. one of the best bikes for highway use,the stance is just so good.very easy to balance too.the engine starts to get erratic and heated after around 20 minutes of heavy traffic. haven't actually ridden apache, so can't comment on that.
