KTM 250 Adventure vs Cleveland Cyclewerks Ace Deluxe Comparison

The KTM 250 Adventure is quite a likeable motorcycle. In fact, our time with it was brief, and I still can't stop thinking about it, to spend some more time. It offers an unintimidating package, and experienced riders may feel the lack of performance, but it still manages to be enjoyable, and entertaining even. But with this ₹ 2.48 lakh price tag, it's still a slightly expensive proposition, although it ticks off all the boxes to be a versatile entry-level adventure bike.

The Cleveland Ace Deluxe has its positives, and there are some areas of improvement, but it's got a difficult task cut out for it, even though retro motorcycles seem to be the flavor of the market right now. The Ace Deluxe is priced at an introductory ₹ 1.85 lakh, and that price tag will be a big challenge to get customers walking into a CCW dealership, and that too, considering you still miss out on ABS and fuel injection.
