Both bikes have individual strengths and weaknesses, so you'll have to choose your bike depending on what you can live with and without. The (now 350cc) Triumph Scrambler 400 X can be an all-rounder if you want, but it excels in city situations. On the highway, once you cross the triple-digit threshold, you can feel the engine starting to cross its comfort zone and start to feel a little strained with vibrations creeping in progressively. The KTM 390 Adventure (398cc version) remains a proven bet to stick with as a do-it-all machine, although inside the city at slower speeds and lower revs, the engine can feel a little gutless below 4,000rpm. However, on the highway it will deliver the same performance we've come to know and expect from KTM 390s and remains a good option for weekend rides and touring.When it comes to seat height and ergonomics, this KTM bike again has the upper hand because it is a little easier to get your feet down than on the Triumph bike. Do keep in mind that physically, the Adventure is a larger machine than the Scrambler and inside the city filtering through tight gaps, you'll feel that size. We haven't yet ridden the 350cc KTM 390 Adventure and we'd advise you to get a test ride of both bikes to get a clearer idea before you make a decision.

If you were satisfied with the performance of RE Guerrilla 450 Apex during the test ride, then it is a good buy for you. The Guerrilla is a relatively new bike (as it was launched only 3 years ago) but even then, this Royal Enfield bike has proven to be a largely straightforward and fuss-free machine to own. Choosing between the Apex and the standard Guerrilla will boil down to the riding position you prefer and the tyres on offer. In our experience, the Vredestein Centauro tyres of Guerrilla Apex have proven to have better grip and feedback in almost all conditions than the CEAT dual-purpose tyres of standard Guerrilla. The CEATs are not bad tyres, but overall, the Vredesteins set a much higher baseline. The Apex also has a more committed riding position but if you don't find that to be a dealbreaker, you should go for it rather than the standard variant. To be sure, take a test ride of the standard Guerrilla as well before you make a decision.

The Honda CB350 H'ness and Triumph Speed T4 offer similar riding experience with their relaxed engines and upright ergonomics, although the T4 will be quicker owing to its more powerful engine. The Speed 400 is a cut above in terms of performance and handling but it doesn't really come at the expense of comfort. You should take a test ride of these three before you choose so you can figure out which one is best for you.Additionally, we'd also recommend you look at the Royal Enfield Bullet / Classic 350 because these bikes are very comfortable, offer upright riding positions and a plush suspension setup. Yes, these are heavier and slower than the aforementioned bikes but for city use, the 350cc Royal Enfields are something that fit the bill perfectly and as you've put it, won't feel "boring" after a longer period as long as you don't demand frenetic performance.
