Pros Cons of Suzuki V-Strom SX 250

Pros

  • Well-designed and built
  • Loaded on all essential features
  • Comfortable ergonomics

Cons

  • Not a dedicated off-roader
  • Street-biased suspension setup
  • Lacks switchable ABS

Verdict

There is no doubt about the fact that there are a lot of takers for motorcycles like the V-Strom SX. Popping colours, tall stance, mini-ADV looks, decent capability and not super heavy on the pocket. It does have a lot of capability, great highway manners and for a motorcycle that costs less than two and a half lakh rupees, it makes great sense even in a segment that is loaded with options such as the Royal Enfield Himalayan.

Pros Cons Royal Enfield Himalayan

Pros

  • Versatile budget ADV motorcycle
  • Good Ride quality
  • Hardy motorcycle

Cons

  • Engine lacks power for seasoned riders
  • Could have been lighter
  • Brakes could have been better

Verdict

The Royal Enfield Himalayan definitely is a good bike, and the more time you spend time with it, the more you begin appreciating it. Sure, it has its weaknesses, and more power, less weight, better brakes et al, would have worked wonders to make it even better. But eventually, what matters is that it's a simple motorcycle that will charm you with its simplicity, whether you're the city commuter, relaxed highway cruiser, or trudging along broken trails.
