                        A performance bike with easy handling for city
                        I recommend this bike because of its performance with easy handling for city riding, suitable for anyone. With at least one year of riding experience of a 250cc bike. Throttle experience and braking is my favourite part. Additionally, this LC4c engine is enough for an average tourer.

                        Mileage problem
                        The bike is worth the price and offers good value for money. However the mileage is lower than I expected. The overall performance is satisfactory for daily use but better fuel efficiency would make it a more economical choice.

                        Superb Bike - Value for Money + Speed enthusiast
                        This bike has stylish look and a lean person on this bike looks good, this should be first choice for speed and power enthusiast. This is my choice because of the torque of this bike provides the light weight helps to find a better place in crowded lanes. The ride has been smooth and comfy and when i take the bike on road, it feels safer even on the long route on a ride of hundred kilometers continuous the back posture was comfortable, Even if we take this on the uneasy space this should be the best option due to its weight. yes, as i own this bike i will recommend this to the person who will be looking to purchase this in future, this bike has everything a new should have, if you love riding the bike, if you own a bike right now then should be the best upgrade you will give after riding this hulk.

                        Duke 250 review
                        Amazing bike and very beginner friendly. Duke 250 GEN 3 is one of the most amazing beginner bikes to learn how to ride on. It comes with dual ABS and good features that really sold it for me. I had this bike for 2 years now and I can vouch on the handling, servicing and mileage aspects is one of the best.

                        It is a nice bike with good performance. I prefer it for highway touring and off-roading. Until the first service, I was not satisfied with the mileage because I was getting only 18–19 kmpl. However, after the first service, I am impressed.

                        adventure ka junoon King of mountain
                        Himalayan 450 is made for those who believe the journey matters as much as the destination. Powerful engine, comfortable ride and rugged looks make it a true adventure partner. Road khatam ho sakti hai, lekin adventure ka junoon kabhi khatam nahi hona hahiye, overall bike is really strong and comfrotable.

                        This is better option for BIG GUYS.
                        I chose this because i love going to mountains and travelling through dirt trails and since i wanted to travel across Himalayas the first option that came my mind was Himalayan 450 because my cousin had Himalayan 411 back then and he loved the experience so i thought same beast with extra power would be a great choice. Honestly everything is good and perfect as i had imagined, The comfort is good the abs is great suspension, perfect and the 17L fuel tank is absolutely perfect, I never feel the necessity to carry extra fuel with me. Yes, i would really recommend this bike to someone who is interested in travelling or doing long rides like ladakh, Warwan you can go to any offroad batch or destination in this bike and also this bike performs well on highway too.

                        I'm truly into adventurous and among tourer bike. I have like very few options and this one is far better among all bikes and it is very big good power and torque, good cc and it looks good on roads. Ride has been really good smooth, engine is great, suspension and stable highways, a bit heavy in city traffic, tough but on highways its so smooth and riding been fun on ghat roads too, like the rural area type. Yes, definitely its perfect for touring and weekend rides, if you mostly in the city it might feel too heavy, if you are tall there would be no problem for you but if you are short and basic, its not build for you.

                        Royal Enfield as bought a amezing bike
                        Am 6.1 height so i need comfort, maintenance cost, features and style is so good, performance wise amazing and torque in 6th gear is next level. I bought this bike for a long drive and as well as city riding. Stress less ride, the variation in weight is due to the additional touring and safety features equipped on the top-end model. Here is a quick breakdown. Totally the bike is crazy i ride this bike continuously for 500km. For ADV lover one of the best bike. I would like to recommend this bike who has a passion in off-road they can buy with any second thoughts and style is so good performance wise amazing. But service is disappointed in some service station.

                        Best bike in this budget segment
                        Best bike for low budget and adventure , if someone is looking a adventure bike and his budget is around 2.5 lacks then this bike may be the best option. Because one of my reason is mileage. It gives almost 30 to 35 km which is the maximum for a adventure bike in this budget. So If you are looking like these segment then this is best option in my opinion.

                        Best of entry level adv motorcycle
                        From ride height till ride endurance for a entry level it is a good and ideal motorcycle in the segment. Comparison with similar segment motorcycle I have never seen any other motorcycle to provide a ease of ride . At the end we can conclude that we have number of brands offering similar segment motorcycle but for me Adventure by Yezdi will be a good pick.
