  • Versys 650 or Vulcan S or Street rod 750 or Iron 883 ??

    Hi guys !!
    I have been an owner of a Benelli 300 since last 3 years, and I am quite happy with it. I mostly use it for daily commute & once in a 3 months for long trips. I am planning to sell it off and buy a new one.
    I am looking for a more comfortable bike than the Benelli 300. Pillion comfort is of utmost importance as mostly I will be travelling with a pillion.
    So I am confused between these 4 :- Versys 650 or Vulcan S or Street Rod 750 or Iron 883.
    So any of you guys who own any of these bikes please give your input.
    Thanks.

          cant travel everywhere with a cruiser on indian roads.. on 4 lane highways yes but see an adventure bike is a different beast all together..

            Comfortable for rider but not pillion! The seat is too damn narrow! I would pick Versys any time else a used 2012 to 2016 Ninja 650

              Give your preferences....I highly recommend you to ignore harleys....Street rod has a very shitty riding posture..... If you are taller than 5.6 than you will feel cramped. 883 doesn't have a rear seat....its an add on accessorie....the more you pay the better comfort you get ( minimum price is 16k) .

              Now comming to the kiwis Vulcan is a great bike but...you will get bored of it very quickly. It for some reason doesn't give you that superbike feel.


              Last option is versys 650. Great on potholes....great riding posture and extremely good pillion comfort.

                  Good bike but a bit on the higher side! Would suggest the t100 any day over street twin

                    The Versys 650 fits your requirements to the T. Don't even bother with any other bike/manufacturer.

                    Please check out the reviews on Team BHP and you will have no doubts at all.

                    All the best!

                    Cheers

                        just visit the two showrooms,ride all four bikes and surprise yourself.
                        Kwakers are excellent machines but i personally don't like their accoustics.
                        The Harleys are'nt as dynamic as the Kwakers but trust me ,outside of the racetrack,they are all the machine u'll ever use-with that aural music a free bargain.
                        That Street Rod can really hustle too.

                          Personal choices! The kwackers are highly reliable! Proven Engine!

                          Harley isn’t pillion friendly! The seats are too narrow as in the case with most cruisers! And cruisers aren’t comfortable for highways! The tank range too is poor!!

                          And for me, a highway machine shouldn’t be noisy! I love silent rides!

                              A huge difference! The Versys is better in every term! Better shocks, better Ground Clearance, better brakes, better riding stance and much more comfortable seats!



                              The front forks are adjustable as well!!
