Pros Cons of KTM RC 390

Pros

  • Sharply styled
  • High on performance & handling
  • Extremely value-friendly

Cons

  • Polarising new design
  • Finish could be better
  • Too compact for taller riders

Verdict

The next-generation KTM RC 390 has become more accessible and friendlier so even if you’re upgrading from a smaller bike, the new KTM RC 390 is comfortable to ride. With the new updates, it has become a bike that is more suited for everyday use, and for a minority of users who want to cut their teeth on a racetrack, it still offers a capable and potent track tool. Prices though have gone up by ₹ 36,000, it still makes a very strong case as a performance-oriented and well-equipped sports bike.

Pros Cons Ather 450

Pros

  • Great on performance and handling
  • Sharp design is a headturner
  • Easy to use interface

Cons

  • Uncomfortable seating for tall riders
  • Limited range
  • Slightly stiff suspension

Verdict

It is a viable alternative to a conventional scooter offering impressive performance, excellent riding dynamics and, sheer practicality despite the limited range. The scooter's tech-laden nature also makes it quite the gadget to have. With an asking price of about ₹ 1.25 lakh (on-road, Bangalore), the Ather 450 isn't too differently priced than the top-of-the-line iPhone. In either case, it's a premium for what's on sale but we do think it's a worthy buy, for you will enjoy the experience.
