    If you have a big bank balance, go for a big bike and if you don't have one, shut your trap and buy what what you can afford, don't be a fool and take huge loan, its not worth it. The value of any automobile only depreciates.

    Amazing point is even the small bike in this compassion is around INR 3.5 Lacs which is also quite high for average Indians watching RUclips

    Get a good bike , whatever you have in your mind . Not what is affordable. See it's just one life . If you want a superbike and can save up to afford it and then maintain it , do it . Himalayan is a mass market bike, no offense to owners. I am a Himalayan 411 owner myself . New Professionals and students, please save more and get an xpulse or anything that can cruise at 90-100 and is light to maneuver in city . It's not worth it owning a heavy bike and RE service is bad in case of newly launched bikes

    Since New express ways are banning 2 wheeler, there's no sense in buying bike more then 600-700cc in India.

    If you don't want to spend so much money, what is there to discuss. It's a joke comparing a Tiger to a Himalayan. As per your logic, nobody will be buying Mercedes, BMW, Ferrari, etc. Deep pockets matter.

  • @Whatreally123
    @Whatreally123 5 месяцев назад

    If Triumph launches a 660 Tiger Rally (not the sport thats being aold now) for around 12-14, itll be the best bang for the buck. More than enough power for our roads, would definitely be lighter than the 900 and price would be great as well. Will tick all the boxes.

  • @Whatreally123
    @Whatreally123 5 месяцев назад

    I have ridden the length and breadth of this country and ventured into the tough sections of the Himalayas multiple times and trust me these big hikes are absolutely not necessary. In india its more of a flex than anything else. 99% of the owners of these big bikes just do weekend breakfast rides or small weekend rides. Predominantly highway cruising and for iur roads any bike whoch can sustain a constant 110 kmph is more than enough.
    Never ever buy a big bike on loan. Dont fall into this BS of "life is short, enjoy it" if finances are limited. If you have enough koney kying around and spending 20+ lakhs on a bike wont matter, by all means go for it and even in that case, itll be unnecessary.

    This is a very practical discussion. As I know the owner of the Tiger personally , he is talking from his experience of over the years. A bike should give you the thrill of riding , but also fit your pocket as well.

  • @rkdash2006
    @rkdash2006 5 месяцев назад +1

    I have Both agree to everything. So would like to all few correction. 100/120 cruising on touring is a common thing now a Days. Tiger at 90/100 feels really nothing... at least 100/120 cruising. Himalayan is a scalpel. Can do 100/110 beyond that lot of wind blast. But the feel of tiger at 120 -150 you feel like heaven.

      @carandbike  5 месяцев назад

      Hey, @t.karthikharshavardhan! Yeah, that’s a given. A multi-cylinder engine will be thirstier than a single-cylinder engine, and folks know that when they consider a big bike. What they don’t consider are running/maintenance costs, over the purchase cost, and that’s what we’re trying to address.

      @BoraPreetam 5 месяцев назад

      You can check with any dealership or service centre, and not just limited to Triumph big bikes. Any other brand big bikes, the numbers will astound you, for spares and major service cost. These cost numbers are from personal ownership experience of the Tiger 800 XC for over 8 years now.

      Whatever gave you the idea? This is about informing people about the maintenance costs to be thought about when buying a big bike. And if one would have been rich, you would have seen the latest 25 lakh ADV, not a 10-year-old one with old tyres desperately needing replacement
