  • Need help deciding on my first big bike !!!

    Hi Guys,

    I am planning on buying my 1st big bike and need your advice on few things. My budget is 6-7 lakhs . My height is 5.8" and I will be using the bike for commuting as well as on highways on weekends. Currently I am using Pulsar 150 Dtsi for my daily commute. After going through various reviews and checking the options available in my budget
    (Benelli 600i, Kawasaki Z650, Kawasaki Ninja 650 2017, Harley Davidson Street 750 & Street Rod) I have zeroed in upon the Ninja 650. What I would like to know is that though the reviews state that the Ninja 650 has linear power delivery, will I face any problem in adapting to the bike since I am upgrading from a smaller bike to larger bike. Also how much are the maintenance costs for Ninja 650. I would also like to know whether Ninja 650 faces any problem while commuting due to its 130mm ground clearance.

    Regards,

    Vighnesh

    Query Approved

    Good sensible choice. Check with Kawasaki owners about the general cost of ownership.

    Take it easy in the beginning with your right wrist in the first few kilometres and then you will be fine thereafter

    All the best!
    Biking is not about what you have between your legs, its all about how well you use it!!!!!!!
