Pros Cons of Kawasaki Versys 650

Pros

  • Comfortable ride
  • Great tourer
  • Value-friendly

Cons

  • Tall seat height
  • Limited electronic aids
  • Dated design

Verdict

The Kawasaki Versys 650 is a great bike to ride around the city - riding in traffic isn't much of a wrestle, considering the bike looks quite tall and imposing. The Versys 650 could very well be all the bike you need - for your daily commute, for the weekend ride, and even for the long haul with your significant other as pillion with luggage. At ₹ 7.3 lakh (on-road Delhi), you can look at the Benelli 600 GT and even the Honda CBR 650F as options. 

Pros Cons Triumph Tiger 1200

Pros

  • Muscular looks
  • Good performance
  • Good touring and off-road abilities

Cons

  • Heavy
  • Fuelling not great
  • Snatchy power delivery

Verdict

The 2022 Triumph Tiger 1200 has a lot of positives which makes it difficult to ignore. The pricing makes it even more appealing and at the very least it definitely deserves a test ride for anyone in the market for a full-size adventure bike. The new Tiger 1200 has arrived after a weight-loss programme making it leaner and meaner. It is a hugely improved adventure bike, which has a lot of capability and versatility to make for a compelling choice in the segment.
