Hi xbians,
6 months back I was planned to buy a bike. My target was KTM 200 duke . Now I am ready to buy it. But I want your suggestion before proceeding further.
I am 5.7 feet ,58 kg.My home town roads have frequent ups and turns, and most of my rides are in the city.I may go tours on my bike but not more than 500kms.I never mind about hard seats and suspension.
My average speed will be 85kmph and maximum 100(may be while overtaking those fzs and r15).And most of the time my pillion seat will be blank.
Now,
1. Am I chosen right bike?
2.Its already 2 years after launch of Duke 200,Is there any bike in the market that has same performance as duke 200 in the same price range.
3.If I buy duke 390 it will extend my emi to further 6 months but I think I will never utilise it s full potential. Only I feel is ,200 duke don't have abs.Is abs life saving? and is that must have feature for a bike?(apache 180 has abs for less cost).
My first ever bike depends on yous guidlines.Please help me....
