                Pros & Cons

                • Pros
                • Cons

                • Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450

                  • The bike gets the same engine as the Himalayan 450. It offers plenty of performance in the adventure bike, so expect similar levels of performance in the Guerrilla too.
                  • Being lighter and smaller than the Himalayan in terms of dimensions, the Guerrilla should be easy to manage in everyday commutes.

                  Yamaha YZF-R2

                  • Strong, exciting top-end performance and engaging engine character
                  • More comfortable ergonomics than the R15 for everyday riding
                  • Premium design, build quality and impressive electronics package
                  • Light, confidence-inspiring handling with capable cornering dynamics

                • Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450

                  • Instead of the more advanced inverted fork, the Guerrilla 450 gets a traditional telescopic fork.
                  • The 11-litre fuel tank is 6 litres smaller than the one in the Himalayan 450. This may affect the total range in long rides.
                  • The 780mm seat height should be low enough for most of the shorter riders to place their feet on the ground comfortably.

                  Yamaha YZF-R2

                  • Engine feels flat below 6,000rpm, requiring frequent downshifts for quick overtakes
                  • R15 remains sharper and more agile in tight corners
                  • No exceptional headline features like TPMS, cornering ABS or lean-sensitive traction control
                  • Rs 50,000-plus premium over the R15 may be difficult to justify for some buyers

                  This is one of the best machines. So tuned and historical. Chain is a tight initially but later it's smooth. Power unmatched. Fully satisfied and colour are wonderful in quality. Great buy. Got help from the showroom and the build quality and parts are amazing. I am thrilled that there is no negative point. It's an achievement.

                  my guerrilla 450
                  I had to many optoins when it comes to mid range cc segment and goes for the budget and this stole my eye with the colours, the glare its has some charm that i wanted to hold and drive and honestly, its been great. Its been hell of a ride and i give it the best bike the enfield ever released the bike, I mean i'm not a guy who has issues with mileage or maintaince, but if you are it might be troublesome except that runs like a butter. Of course, if youre someone who wants to have a classic bike with power torque and i quote an indian brand cause i'm proud as hell while riding this beauty and beast, it gives butterflies not exaggerated.

                  Experience and Review of Guerrilla 450
                  An excellent bike with solid engine. It has that attractiveness to fall in love. Compact size, big blast. I choose to experience this machine for its style, liquid cooled engine, TFT display, suspension and everything. Long rides does not feel boring on this machine. It definitely give good comfort, mileage depends on situation, 17-22 in traffic and 23-27 on highway. The torque it generates is just fabulous. It has given me upper hand in drag races. Would definitely recommend this bike to teenagers and those riders who wants to experience the feeling of driving Himalayan. This machine is a segment killer, no other bike can pair with it except its big sister Himalayan 450.
