                • Pros
                • Cons
                • KTM 390 Adventure X

                  • More affordable alternative to the 2025 390 Adventure
                  • 825mm seat height is 5mm lower than the 390 Adventure, making it easier to ride for shorter riders
                  • Gets all electronic features as 390 Adventure, including cruise control and ride modes

                  Aprilia RS 457

                  • Looks – looks sporty, aggressive and premium. Good build quality and sharp design mean it attracts a lot of attention
                  • Engine – lots of torque throughout the rev range makes commuting very easy. Quick overtakes even in a gear higher are effortless. You don't need more power.
                  • Tyres – the TVS Eurogrip Protorq Extreme tyres are fantastic both in dry and wet conditions, no complaints there
                  • Features – the TFT console is user-friendly and offers a lot of useful information
                • KTM 390 Adventure X

                  • Does not get tubeless spoke wheels
                  • Misses out on adjustable suspension

                  Aprilia RS 457

                  • Riding posture – the clip-on handlebar is low-set and on the committed side, not the best for everyday commuting
                  • Firm rear suspension – the RS 457's rear monoshock is on the firmer side and lighter riders will be tossed around a bit when going through potholes and sharp speed breakers
                  • Reliability – the RS 457 is coming out of a factory that's never made a bike before so its reliability and how Aprilia handles its after-sales service is yet to be seen

                  Best in segment
                  I am doing long ride on week end also for lite affordable i see many other options like Himalayan 450 but bit heavy for me so I choose ktm adventure because it's light weight easy to ride on highway also good feature of electrical side. On highway I am getting mileage of 30 to 37 kmpl depends on engine rpm this bike effortlessly crush on 120kmph to 140kmph with any engine stress also riding poser is good comfortable in city it's easy to manoeuvre in traffic. Here is my reason to choose ktm light weight good mileage best electric feature like riding mode cornering abs best tft counsel also you get accessories port bottom, also engine power is best in class no match for ktm.

                  My First KTM - Powerful and comfortable
                  First time KTM owner. Wanted a bike mainly for highway touring and city rides. X plus felt balanced and practical not extreme offroad. Test ride at KTM helped decide. Always wanted a KTM but due to my tall height was waiting for a taller bike, which I got atlast Done around 4500kms already in 4 months. Very stable on highways and easily touches 150kmph. City riding is okay but heats up in traffic but that is expected because the engine is a highly compressed 400cc single cylinder. Mileage is 19-20 in city and around 28 in highways. Yes, I would recommend it for riders who want touring comfort, strong performance and balanced offroad ability. Good balance bike if your usage is city plus highways. It can easily handle even off-roading, you will be surprised by its performance and handling.

                  Coolest ADV
                  Multiple adventure bikes available in the market but KTM adventure still stand the best due to its ride quality not only on off road but also on the road. the stability is unbeatable, never makes you feel any types of bumps or pothole on the road and ofcourse the bike is made for off road so on off road its a beast meanwhile its looks are also very sporty and attention seeking.

                  Aprilia RS 457 Ownership Review
                  It is the best choice for a budget super sport bike and looks aggressive with a lot of torque and power. The twin cylinder engine is very tractable and the overall ride experience is fun! Definitely a head turner. The bike is very smooth and the engine is very responsive. The posture is a bit demanding so would avoid in traffic jams and long rides. The power is just amazing, a twist of the throttle and before you know it you are reaching triple digit speeds. This is a pure red bike and would only suggest it to those who are genuinely in need of the power upgrade and will ride the bike the way it is meant to. For beginners and clout chasers would definitely recommend to stay away from this bike.
