                  Ready to Adventure.
                  I also have a Duke, Adv has covered all the issues which I have faced on Duke when I use to go on long rides, Ride is also plush coupled with a great engine which proves itself on all grounds. Also it has a decent fuel efficiency considering its engine performance. Bike's comfortable its mileage is also good I get a decent range, but the engine won't feel as raw as BS4 duke, great electronics and safety. Just having engine oil consumption on higher side. Also the Trampler tyres give more life than Turanzas which came initially. Long hauling person should definitely buy this bike, long rides are so hassle free. And comfortable, also if you have to carry any luggage they have provided good anchoring points. Tieing a back pack or a duffle bag is easy.

                  review of KTM 390 Adventure S after 2 months
                  I wanted one bike that could handle daily city rides, long highway tours and occasional bad roads. the riding posture, safety features and performance focus made this a perfect all rounder also the road presence is really exceptional Very confident and planted on highways, cruises comfortably at high speeds. Suspension feels great in the city and even better on rough roads. Engine is punchy and fun, mileage is really good for the power, love the throttle response and breaking capabilities Definitely yes, if you love touring, weekend rides and want performance with comfort. Ideal for pune's surprising roads, a little tall but perfect for riders who enjoy long rides, highways and light off-roading.

                  Perfect strong engine cruiser for style, comfort.
                  I chose this bike for its stunning cruiser design, strong road presence, looks and its engine. Its super comfortable, easy to handle, and perfect for both city rides and long highway trips and it is affordable also. The ride feels amazing! The engine is smooth, the balance is great, and it glides effortlessly on highways. Mileage is fair for a 500cc bike, and the comfort level is top-notch. Engine is very good and the look is premium. Yes, If you love stylish cruiser bikes with great comfort and performance, the Rebel 500 is worth it. It is perfect for those who want a good performance cruiser bike in affordable price with a stylish look.

                  Best in that Price !!
                  The Mid and Top Range of the bike so so smooth yet powerful, a value for money in my opinion and it's compact too 📈 really love the performance, the crusing is also fair on this bike, really Enjoyed the ride. Although some people might think they are over charging, but trust me, it's better than a 650 ❤️

                  Honda rebel : the actual meaning of adrenaline
                  You know, the Honda Rebel 500 is one of those bikes they just completely nailed. It skips all that flashy, heavy chrome we see on old school cruisers and goes for this modern, blacked-out bobber look that works. And the first thing you feel is how crazy low that seat is. Seriously, it's a huge confidence booster.

                  Review of Rebel 500
                  Bike dikhne me very attractive lagti hai, iski design door se alag najriya paida krti hai, sbse main baat hai iska look, black colour sbse jyada bhaukali lagta hai, jb road par gujrati hai to aaju baju walon ki nigah bs isi baike ke charo taraf ghumti rahti hai, mileage thoda kam hai, pr koi baat nahi.

                  I recently bought this and my personal experience is amazing, specially for long ride I prefer this bike it's taken fuel but give a Joy of riding. I personally recommend this model to all bike Lovers who prefer comfortable ride and daily average is not more then 50-60 km to and fro it will be good option for those.
