250 Adventure thrill

I have be­en using my friend's KTM 250 Adventure­ bike for riding lately. It is fun for exploring off-road trails! The­ bike is not very powerful, but it is one­ of the affordable options for adventure­ riding. The seat is quite tall, so shorte­r riders may find it intimidating. The suspension can fe­el stiff on city roads. However, if you e­njoy adventure and riding on rough roads, this lightweight KTM bike­ is a great choice!

Good performance and power

On the bad road the ride quality is good and the initial and mid range is nice but the top end performance is not good and the braking is also not good. The riding and handling is good and the modern features are coming with this bike and the seat is very wide. the comfort level of seat is very good and the performance is good and the suspension is nice but the price is high of this bike for the 250 cc engine and the weight of this bike is high.

Unleash Your Adventurous Spirit

Riding KTM 250 adventure makes me sure that this kind of bike is the best choice for those people who travel far and wide. Equipped with a rough look and diversity, the vehicle becomes ready for all types of conditions with no difficulty. Its powerful 250cc engine as well as the efficient suspension system guarantee smooth experiences and a safe and secure journey from roads to off-road adventures. For example, a windshield that is easy to adjust, plush seat, and lots of room of storage offer parking comfort and convenient long-term trips.

Affordable Adventure Bike

The KTM 250 Adventure is an attractive, practical and powerful adventure motorcycle that is a superb bike for both on and off roads. Its 250cc engine ensures the ride is smooth and responsive and the high ground clearance and suspension improves stability when going off-road. The relaxed seating, the nose protection, and LED lights enhance it for long distance rides, but the digital instrument cluster and LED lights ensure clear visibility. The KTM 250 Adventure is a perfect pick for both adventurous spirits and budget-conscious riders.

250cc engine

4.2

Comes with heritage of 250cc engine of duke 250, The ktm 250 adventure is truly a experience to have both off-road and on-road let's start with the trellis frame, Which is clearly inspired from dakar bikes is on the bigger side compared to other bikes in this category.Which can be good for taller riders and shorter riders might take some time to be comfortable with.The engine, Is a liquid cooled 250cc six speed short stroke engine which kicks in its power after 4000-5000 rpm.This might be a trouble in off-road trails for rookies but once acclimatized you will be all ready to go.The power output is around 30ps at 9000 rpm and max torque is 24nm at 7500 rpm.Hard off-roading is not adviced with ktm adventure 250 as it comes with alloy wheels and suspension which is on the stiffer side compared to its competitors like xpulse and himalayan but you can have your bit of fun.On indian highways, This bike has more than to offer.Can comfortably cruise in 100-110km/hr without any vibes and seats are also very comfortable.Lcd display and off-road abs are other electronic features and it lacks traction control.You will probably have to change the chain and sprocket on your third service or 15k kms as ktm advs are on the lesser end of sprocket and chain life.You can do your bit of cornering on this bike but hard corners are better if avoided as it's a adventure bike and not sports bike.

Overall Good Bike

441946Exceptional suspension travel and comfort. Abundance of touring accessories and aftermarket modifications readily available in the market. Good mileage, ranging from 30 kmpl to 38 kmpl, depending on road conditions and riding style. A robust power output of 30 bhp and 24 Nm of torque from a 250cc engine, is more than sufficient for maintaining comfortable speeds of 90-100 kmph throughout the day. Liquid-cooled engine and a smooth 6-speed gearbox that excels in highway cruising. Comfortable seating posture. A premium feel to the overall build. Imparts a substantial, big-bike feel with its looks. Cons: The chain sprocket necessitates regular maintenance, typically after every 300 km. Upgrading to a Rolon brass-coated chain sprocket is recommended. The stock halogen headlight is ineffective, and an upgrade to high-quality auxiliary lamps or a Nighteye LED headlight is necessary. The seat height, at 855mm, is relatively tall. The front headlight cover can produce some irritating noises, a problem also observed in the ADV390. The rear suspension may require adjustments for enhanced comfort. The stock windshield fails to shield the rider from windblast effectively, prompting the purchase of an aftermarket windshield. Conclusion: If you're in the market for a premium adventure bike priced under 3 lakh, offering a plethora of accessories, good mileage, impressive performance, and ample luggage space, then the KTM Adventure 250 is the ideal choice.

Drivers mind

The engine that understands a driver's mind.Instantaneously.That's what i love the most.Ideal for drivers taller than 5ft 6inch.It revs into the desired power at a strike of a twist, Especially the 3rd gear.The tall stance sitting position makes the driver one notch above your co-drivers.The digital instrument is indeed a visual stimulus to rev up the desired power and gear indication.Color combination (orange, Black), Styling, And appearance are brilliant.The seating feels a bit stiff after a long drive.Needs a bit softer seat.I also miss the led white headlight available in 390 adventure.Suspension is good, Though rigid on sudden and steep bumps/potholes.Mileage ranges from 25-28km/hr.Overall, I love the brand ktm and the power it delivers.A true fan of ktm bikes.

King of highways

For off road rides and long highway tours has always been a dream and the KTM 250 Adventure turned that dream into a reality. With its robust 248.8 cc engine pushing out 30 PS, it has engineered for adventurers who demand performance and reliability.The bike's versatility is its biggest strength feeling equally at home on rugged trails as it does on smooth transitions. The suspension setup offering decent travel, ensures that bumps on uneven paths are handled with ease making it an excellent companion for exploring uncharted territories.Additionally for some riders in India, the bike's seat height could be a challenge particularly in urban areas.
