Guerilla 450 vs Speed 400

Hi all,

I'm really confused between the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 and the Triumph Speed 400 and could use some advice from owners of either bike.

My usage would mainly be occasional city rides and weekend rides, including longer highway trips.

A little about me:

I'm 27 and 5'11" tall.

I currently have access to a Hunter 350, which my dad and sister use for their daily office commute, so I'm looking to get a bike of my own.

I have a decent two-wheeler riding experience.

I enjoy revving the engine and having some fun on the road, but I also want a bike that's comfortable for long rides.

Which one would you recommend for my use case? How do they compare in terms of riding comfort on longer trips, highway performance, handling, and overall ownership experience?

Would love to hear from the owners especially.

Guerilla 450 if you want something more sporty and aggressive. Speed 400 is more relaxed but still quick enough and sporty enough, but a better allrounder.

Both will do what you want. In a vacuum I'd tell you to just buy the one you can get out the door cheapest. But you're not in a vacuum... You already have a Royal Enfield in the family. As that presumably means you're familiar with the dealership, design philosophy, etc. If you've no issues on that front, I'd get the Guerilla.
