Pros Cons of Honda X-Blade

Pros

  • Decent looks
  • Smooth engine
  • Comfortable ride

Cons

  • Pricey
  • Stiff seat
  • Slow throttle response

Verdict

For the price, the X-Blade proves to be nice all-round commuter and scores high on looks and design. The LED headlamp and tail lamp are a welcome addition to the package. The 160 cc segment hasn't quite fired for Honda in the last few years and with the X-Blade, it looks to change the same. The good thing is that the X-Blade is a decently capable product and sure has the potential to get some good sales figures for Honda.

Pros Cons KTM 125 Duke

Pros

  • Sharp Styling
  • Premium components and build
  • Dynamic handling

Cons

  • Pricey for its performance
  • Stiff suspension
  • Rivals offer better value

Verdict

The 125 Duke offers similar road presence, fantastic road manners and a suitably entertaining personality for young riders to hone their skills to graduate to bigger and more performance oriented bikes. And being a 125 cc, it may well be passed off as a relatively 'safe' option, at least while convincing the parent. Considering the KTM 200 Duke is at least ₹ 30,000 more expensive, the 125 Duke certainly offers a relatively affordable and accessible entry into the KTM family.
