            Adequate power + good mileage for a tourer
            It could possibly be a good bike for the tourers, especially the ones traveling inter-city or interstate. The bike's comfortable riding position and ergonomic control give the biker the pleasure to be on it while mile-munching on the highways and the bike is equally good on the in-city roads as well. Mileage-wise, the bikes return a comparably better fuel average than similarly priced bikes. But one can also consider the Suzuki GSX S750 for just a tiny buck more. It not only has 2 more cylinders to power itself but it also sports 46PS and a 17Nm surplus of power and torque over the Ninja 650. So the Ninja here is an entry-level adventure tourer where as the S750 is a naked street sports bike that can also be used as a sports tourer but still the Ninja650 will return much better fuel mileage than S750 ever can. Make sure u know what u want before finalizing either of them.

            Most Comfortable Bike
            This is the most comfortable bike that feels like sitting on the bed, and performance is next level. Its engine pickup is very nice, and it almost takes 5 seconds to touch 100kmph.

            Overall good bike but it's
            Overall good bike but it's more sporty and little bit of less comfort. Sometimes if you are using normal basis then I don't recommend it at all It is more for fashion type not practical in day to day life.so buy according to your use not according to others or any showoff thing.please be patient and think twice and invest your money at right place

            My dream bike
            Nice bike this is my dream bike but I ride this bike for one day from my brother's friend . It is not a bike for me it is a emotion for me. And it cannot give me a back pain and pillion seat comfort is good compared to other 650cc bikes . Overall this bike is a monster piece and it gives good mileage in this cc
