  1. I own the Vstrom –

    In city traffic I get close to 30kmpl

    In highway sprited riding again 30 kmpl. Sedate riding givea close to 38 kmpl.

    Just did a 650km ride today. It is an awesome highway tourer!

  2. I own Vstrom 250, I get a mileage of 37-38 kmpl in city (light traffic) and 39-41 kmpl in highways cruising at 80-100kmph on highway. Done 10k KM and cost of service is 1300 Rs to 1800Rs and once every 5000 km. Seat is comfortable for almost 300-400 km after which I could feel the pain.. might be because of my age 🙂 ( I'm in my late 30's). So far I am happy with the purchase moving from 125cc to 250 Vstrom. I have my friend who sold his Old classic 350 for the Vstrom and he is enjoying it a lot. Hope this helps.

  3. hello, I am so confused to buy a 250 adv vs v Strom 250 because I am a Developer and I love to ride my bike and go on tours and I already have an apache 160 4v 2023 model and I want to buy a new one so which should I choose?

  4. Vstrom just needed the 411 Himalayan suspension.. then it will be a perfect allround package…Vstrom engine is very refined and in terms of looks no match with the KTM.

  5. I own ktm 250 adv and after the launch of 390X , I have never recommended 250adv to anyone unless they really are on a tight budget n want a ktm. 250 adv should not even be on people’s list after last 6 month’s new bike release.
