Hi all,
Am looking at buying a 600 cc largely to be used for occasional city commute and touring purpose.
Am not new to sbk, have owned a few years back while I was settled overseas but haven't riden anything in the past few years after my return.
I love the naked variants, but semi fared and sports tourers fit the bill aswell.
What am looking for and needs suggestions are around the following parameters.
1. Good looking
2. Comfortable positioning specially for long rides, and easily cruise distance at 130 150 on highways.
3. Good mid range
4. Reliability (high on the list)
5. Budget is 6-7 lakhs
Based on market availability the options I see are the -
1 Benalli 600 i
2. Kawasaki 650 and en 6 r
Or a used hyosung 650 n or the 650 gt (with some modifications adjusting riding position) which are available for under 3l
Can anyone comment on the above 3 specifically the hyosung. I love the idea of owning a very twin and how it delivers power at low torque. Not sure how this bike fits in.
And the benelli has a very reliable 05 r6 engine that's badly tuned. Am thinking a bit seriously around the benelli but I don't see a dyno jet power commander model unit available for this model. Any thoughts or alternatives?
Thanks in advance
