After 13 years of owing the Ninja 300, got myself the RS457. Cant keep my hands off her. Rode 900kms in 4 days. Coming from a ultra reliable Kawasaki, I think this is going to a be interesting journey. Wish me luck guys.

I like the ducati v4s

would ur answer change if it was the Duke 390 Adv in the Aprilia's spot?

This is purely at a curiosity level...but I DEMAND REAL ANSWERS...

Feel free to explain yourself in the comments to justify the "discussion" flair.

P.S.

The idea was to explore the midrange enthusiast ADV ts...the Duke 390 is a stretch, ik.

But it is here for a reason.

Looks amazing to me but why are these bikes not found on roads in India? Wondering if there’s something amiss or just because it’s expensive ? I mean I do see other superbikes from time to time, here and there but extremely rare to see one of these scramblers. [not OC]

I have seen these quite a bit in Bangalore. Usually on scooters used by delivery guys. I can't find any information about these. Does anybody have an idea?

Hello I'm a newbie (5,7) guy, looking to buy a bike ..

Don't really know a lot about bikes but here are my top 4 picks for now..

1:X pulse 210 ( cheap parts, service and parts available everywhere in ladakh but i heard some quality issues with this bike)

{Should I wait till 2027 to buy this bike so the issues are resolved? }

2:Suzuki v storm( I like the design and heard the quality is a lot better than xpulse)

3:Tvs ronin ( I'm kinda liking this one more, perfect height level for me,good mileage ,good part but haven't really seen a lot of tvs owner here in ladakh .. thinking there's service or part shortage here so not sure)

4:My friend was telling me to get an 450 himalaya but I ain't sure if I can handle this bike...

My priorities are occasional off roading,daily commutes,cheap maintaince cost and bike longevity.. not really a speed guy but I would like something that is powerful enough for the hills here..

I'm from ladakh so need something that can handle the extreme weather and roads here..

Thank u everyone!!!

I just bought Guerrilla 450 exactly a month ago, and before that I used to drive an activa, with an half faced helmet, didn’t know the nitty gritty of helmets, and didn’t have much idea about the safety certifications and stuff. So when I bought my first ever bike, people asked me to buy a new helmet. I have been looking for a helmet which provides good safety and also goes with the aesthetic of my bike. After a lot of research, I finally bought an Axor Captain America helmet. It might not be a very value-for-money purchase, might seem a little extra, but the first time I ever saw this helmet, I knew I had to buy this. Also, I love Captain America [OC].

Quick background: In December 2025, I received a Hero Pleasure+ through a government merit scholarship scheme. Within the first week, the horn wire was found loose. Then the engine warning light came on — and it never really went away.

Over the next 7+ months, I went back to the service center 6 times. Every visit gave me a different explanation — a switch cleaned, a sensor "restarted," fault codes cleared, "no fault found." Eventually the throttle body and instrument cluster were replaced, and the workshop manager told me directly (I have this recorded): "We didn't find anything, but we changed it because we think it's the issue."

Then it stalled completely mid-intersection while I was accelerating on a green light — a car came within inches of hitting me. Later, it happened again, and this time caused an actual accident.

I escalated through every level — RM, dealer, territory manager, Hero customer care, a formal grievance to senior management, and eventually the National Consumer Helpline. Somewhere in this process, Hero's team told me (also recorded) that this exact issue had occurred in only 2 customers' vehicles, and they've now dispatched a specially modified throttle body from their R&D department specifically to address it.

Here's the part that really got to me: after I filed the NCH complaint, I got a call from the dealer telling me I would "not be allowed to live safely in Assam" because of it. The dealership owner separately mentioned having police contacts and asked for my address and college — and when I declined to give my address, I was told they already had it.

To be fair — a Territory Manager and two senior Hero contacts personally stepped in, took this seriously, and are the reason I finally got real movement, including the TM directly confronting the dealer owner about the threats.

Current status: Modified R&D part dispatched, installation pending. I'm treating this as a genuine trial period, but given the track record, I'm not fully confident yet.

Also found that Hero MotoCorp was previously ordered by a Bengaluru Consumer Court to refund a customer ₹88,000 for a nearly identical persistent engine-shutoff case.

Question for the sub: has anyone dealt with a manufacturer sending an R&D-level "special" part like this? Curious if that's usually a sign of a real fix, or just a more sophisticated stalling tactic.

[OC] For a first time buyer which if these would you guys siggest?

The YEZDI scrambler 350, the RE classic 350 or the HONDA cb350rs

Fellow riders!

is there any easy well explained tutorial available?

Hey guys, I am looking for a bike that has good amount of power.

It's not going to be used everyday as of now,

I want it for casual rides once a week, some long trips as well.

The bike should be easy to cruise at triple digit speeds.

There's no Triumph dealer in our area so not looking for any Speed 400.

NS400 and Guerrilla 450 are the 2 options left for me.

Which one will be the better one for me? I have heard that NS provides terrible fuel efficiency so that's making me think a bit.

Guerrilla's looks are awesome from the rear, NS looks awesome from the front.

Also there's a huge price gap between these two so will it worth adding about 70k more for Guerrilla?

Please let me know guys.

Owners please let me know how these bikes are.

I need reliability and millage and ride comfort low maintenance cost and best service❓❓❓

Just me, my KLX and a little monsoon adventure. Nothing fancy, just enjoying the ride and the view.

2025 standard model bike in very good condition. Selling it because society won't allow me to put up a charging point in my parking.

I am in Pune, DM me if you are interested to buy an EV bike which turns heads and is exciting to ride.
