What’s the difference between the standard and special edition versions of the X-ADV?
17 January 2025 06:54
I'm a DIY enthusiast, and the Special Edition is a challenge for that. Imagine if you could somehow integrate some post-apocalyptic tech into it, like a solar charger or built-in water purification system? Now that would be cool!
The Bajaj Chetak Premium is the pricier version of the standard version.
15 January 2025 09:09
That depends on your priorities. The Premium is great if you’re tech savvy and love gadgets. If all you need is basic transportation then standard is the way to go.
Is the Yamaha FZS V4 Deluxe worth paying extra for over standard FZS V4?
15 January 2025 08:43
I really don't think it's worth it. It's basically the same core riding experience, you're just paying extra for some bling and a nicer display. Keep your cash and opt for the standard version.
Is the Yamaha FZS V3 Dark Knight Edition a premium worth the price over the standard FZS V3?
15 January 2025 08:23
Absolutely worth it! The Dark Knight Edition draws attention wherever I go. Riding Batman's bike is like that, and it really gives you that confidence.
Is all that extra cost worth it for the KTM 890 Adventure R over the standard model for mostly street riding?
15 January 2025 07:42
It’s worth the R just for the looks. Plus, you never know what kind of terrain you may want to tackle. It is better to have the capability and not need it than to need it and not have it.
Does the KTM 390 Adventure X make the trade-offs worth it when compared to the standard model?
15 January 2025 07:02
Not worth it in my opinion. Cornering ABS and traction control are those safety features that really could save your bacon if you’re not the most experienced of riders. It would be more than worth it to pay extra for peace of mind.
Should you pay the premium for the Bajaj Chetak 3501 TecPac over the standard model?
14 January 2025 10:58
It all really depends on your area. If you have Bajaj service in your area that is reliable, you might skip the TecPac. Otherwise, that extended warranty could save your life.
It is (obviously) quite old by super naked standards now, but how does the old KTM 990 Super Duke R really compare to the current super naked, the 1290 Super Duke R?
14 January 2025 07:30
I’ve ridden both, and I have to say I prefer the 990. It's more engaging and more special. It’s almost too easy to ride the 1290 fast.
With the new features and engine, is the Scram 440 still a true scrambler, or is it inching closer and closer to being a standard motorcycle?
13 January 2025 09:02
We're just too hung up on labels, I believe. It is what it is, the Scram 440, a fun, capable bike that can do a little bit of everything. It doesn't have to fit neatly into the "scrambler" box, who cares?
Is Mr Clean Continental GT 650 worth the extra buck over the standard GT 650?
09 January 2025 10:09
Absolutely worth it! It seems to turn heads wherever I go, because the chrome finish is pretty nice. It's art on wheels.
Comparing the riding position of the Classic 350 Bobber and the standard Classic 350.
09 January 2025 09:24
I actually like the more upright position of the standard Classic as someone with back issues. I think the Bobber is a little too hunched.
If you think the Royal Enfield Bullet Trials 500 is a good platform for customization, or if you should start with a standard Bullet instead.
07 January 2025 12:07
Honestly, either way works. The scrambler look is the gift that keeps on giving, and the Trials 500 gives you a head start on this look, but a standard Bullet is a blank canvas. That all depends on your vision and on your budget.
Would the Standard Herald have made it if it had better marketing?
07 January 2025 09:55
It's possible. It's possible to say that if it were marketed better, it could've made a cult following that would have survived longer, even though it would not have made it a mainstream success.
Was this separate chassis body design a clever feature or a fatal flaw?
07 January 2025 09:55
Definitely a clever feature. Making repairs was so much easier and cheaper. This should have been a big selling point in a country where jugaad is king.
Would the Standard Herald be successful if it is relaunched today in the Indian market?
07 January 2025 09:55
It would need a strong USP, apart from just nostalgia. Maybe you could position it as the ultimate city car – with that famous tight turning radius?
Is Standard Herald ahead of its time in India?
07 January 2025 09:55
No, I wouldn't call it ahead of its time. It was just different. If it was ahead, then it had features that became common later, which wasn't really true.
How did the Standard Herald’s unique design affect or hinder its own popularity in India?
07 January 2025 09:55
Its popularity was definitely hurt by the unique design. During those days most Indians preferred familiar conservative designs. The Herald was just too much.
Is the Nissan LEAF future proofed by CHAdeMO charging standard?
06 January 2025 08:13
It's definitely a concern. I’ve seen fewer CHAdeMO chargers installed in my vicinity and CCS is all over the place. In the future, this might limit what road trip options could have and become a serious issue.
Is the N Line i20’s performance worth its extra cash over the standard i20?
02 January 2025 11:14
For what it offers, I think it is overpriced. If you're not so closed minded and are willing to look at sedans you can get much more powerful cars for the same money.
The Fronx's 1.0L turbo engine is premium, but is it worth paying a premium over the standard 1.2L?
31 December 2024 07:55
The turbo is great but think long term costs. With turbo engines, you’ll probably have to spend more on repair in the long run, and in most cases they require more maintenance.
