Thunderbird it is.Originally posted by swamych View Post
Btw, this is in no way a proper query. Check a couple of what bike threads and post in that format. Mentioning age, height, weight and all.
Ride safe and have fun.

Re: KTM RC 390 or RE Thunderbird 350
Both the above mentioned bikes are fine but you can also have a look @ the Inazuma if you like a more composed, smooth and hassle-free ride. This bike has something special about it. Is capable of very long rides across the nation.
Duke390 has good power to weight ratio and quicker off the mark, good top end.
RE is one of the best bets for long rides. Requires regular maintenance too. Vibrates a lot.A bike on the road is worth two in the shed.

Re: KTM RC 390 or RE Thunderbird 350
Well my friend you have confused me. on the one hand you have selected a bike which is a good corner cutting tool but will surely make your back suffer through hell on a long ride (especially a continuous sprint to the destination) and on the other hand is a bike that will be calm composed and is renowned in India as THE bike for touring. personally I would say either suzuki inazuma or if you want to save money a bit then RE Thunderbird. yes the RE vibrates a bit but it is solid and sturdy too and the Inazuma is like riding a cloud when it comes to the bikes suspension. but if full faired is your thing how about the ninja 300.Comment
