Asked by: SENTHIL KUMARon Jan 8, 2026

I currently own an RR 310, but due to changes in personal circumstances, I now prefer shorter trips with my wife and child. However, I still want a powerful motorcycle that I can use for solo rides in the future. I am considering the Husqvarna Svartpilen and the Honda CB350RS, but have heard that the Honda’s suspension is stiff. Which option would be better suited to my needs?

The Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 is a reskinned KTM 390 Duke with both bikes sharing the same engine, chassis and feature-set. As such, the Svartpilen will offer you considerably more performance than the CB350RS, and it will also have the stiffer suspension setup - it's not harsh, but definitely feels more taut than the Honda.
On the other hand, the Honda CB350RS is more laidback in terms of its seating position and torquey, air-cooled engine and will have a much lower performance ceiling than the Husqvarna. Its suspension is quite well-judged and will likely be more pliant than the Svartpilen, too.
You should take a test ride of both bikes to see which one suits you better, as both bikes have very different personalities and price points.

Asked by: Mahesh Mohanon Nov 28, 2025

Hello, Autocar. I am considering purchasing a new bike, and my shortlisted options are the RE Shotgun 650, Bear 650, Himalayan and Classic 650. My daily usage is not much, just a 5km commute to the office and back. I primarily want good suspension and design. Please share your advice. If there is any other model you would recommend, please mention it.

Of the three Royal Enfield 650s you have shortlisted, none of them has particularly comfortable rear suspension, especially so in the city. The Himalayan 450 would be the logical choice between the four you have considered but if you want something a little more manageable and nimble inside the city, you can look at its sibling - the Guerrilla 450.
If you want something that will stand out and look good, the Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 is a unique option that you can consider. Underneath its svelte, Swedish bodywork are the KTM 390 Duke chassis and engine, so you should have a supremely talented bike that will also be uncommon.

Asked by: Abhishekon Nov 18, 2025

Seeking advice: I’m 6’1”, mid-30s, well built, and want a motorcycle for commuting in Bengaluru (~25 km/day) and weekend pleasure rides (I already own a scooter for errands). I need strong road presence, plush suspension, and a comfortable riding position that handles busted city roads—without going full track monster. What models should I consider?

Since you haven't specified what your budget or your preferred style of motorcycle is, we'll give you a list of diverse options. In the ADV space, you can look at the TVS Apache RTX 300, Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, and any of the 250 / KTM 390 Adventure models, depending on the sort of power you want and your budget.  
In the neo-retro space, you can look at the Royal Enfield Classic / Bullet 350 models and the Honda CB350 trio at the lower end of the scale, and the Interceptor 650 if you want something bigger.
If you want a sporty naked motorcycle, the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 and the Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 will fit the bill. Do take exhaustive test rides of all machines you shortlist before putting your money down.
