I enjoyed your video. I am 18 years old and 173 cm tall, and I would like to know if the bike would be suitable for someone of my height. Additionally, I'm interested in knowing if it is a spacious bike, as I've heard that it is quite large.
Thank you.

Thank you! At your height, you will easily be able to sit on the bike and should be reasonably flatfooted on both feet. The bike is big and comfortable but not overly heavy. Should prove to be very comfortable for long highway rides for both rider and pillion.

Dominor 250 or this which will you suggest??

[@thewanderlustride]

i haven’t tested the Dominar 250. However that bike engine is based somewhat on the KTM 250 engine. So if you are looking for that kind of mid range punch, then the Dominar would be a good choice. I found the Suzuki V-Strom to be comfort oriented with an easy going engine. It will also do the job and can easily cruise at 100 kmph but it doesn’t have the fun factor which the Dominar 250 probably has.

@@thewanderlustride Sir how is the suspension set up ?? People say it is stiff ..

[@thewanderlustride]

@@abhikachieverofdailygoals1621 I ride a KTM. So as compared I found the V-Strom suspension soft and very comfortable. I don't really believe this is made as an adventure bike. It will be a great highway tourer.

@@thewanderlustride Great 😃 only cons of this machine as discussed by people. How would you rate the suspension against Enfield ( if we assume classic suspension is 8, Himalayan is 10).. because I m having pain in lower body.. I m going too specific..

[@thewanderlustride]

@@abhikachieverofdailygoals1621 I haven't tried the new Classic. I have tested the new Himalayan briefly and I felt that the VStrom suspension was on the softer side as compared.
