Pros Cons of Honda CB500X

Pros

  • Great all round package
  • Comfortable ergonomics
  • Decent performance

Cons

  • Expensive
  • Only available in BigWing dealerships
  • More options available

Verdict

The Honda CB500X is a good touring machine and can take on the rough easily too. It is available in two colours - Matt Gunpowder Black Metallic and Grand Prix Red. The one big gripe that we have is the pricing, which feels exorbitant. Honda CB500X is actually a versatile motorcycle and It is perhaps the best-rounded package in the 500 cc space, but customers will have to be willing to pay the price for it.

Pros Cons Kawasaki KX250F

Pros

  • Powerful dirt bike
  • Lightweight
  • Great handler

Cons

  • Not street legal
  • Stiff ride quality
  • Not for novice riders

Verdict

Kawasaki is one of the very few manufacturers who have officially launched off-road ready dirt bikes in India. One of the dirt bikes on offer is the KX250. It is not road-legal, therefore, riding the dirt bike should be restricted to off-road trails and tracks only. The KX250 was launched in 2017 but the updated 2018 edition introduces a host of improvements including an updated engine with more torque and revised suspension setup. It is a good dirt bike for novice and pros alike.
