Trending Questions on Husqvarna Vitpilen 250 - Answered by Autocar Experts
Hey guys, Akshay here. I want to know about any premium sports bike that sits above the Apache but is not as committed as the Apache, R15, or KTM. I have gained a lot of weight and can’t ride very committed motorcycles anymore. I’m confused between the Dominar and the Mojo.
Considering your requirements, we'd recommend these three bikes for you: Triumph Scrambler 400 X, Husqvarna Vitpilen 250 and Bajaj Dominar 400, which you've already shortlisted.
Of these three, the Dominar will be the most well-rounded and powerful machine, but it is also the heaviest. The Scrambler 400 is quite peppy inside the city and has the best suspension comfort.
Last but not least, the Vitpilen 250 is going to be the sportiest feeling machine in terms of its chassis. But its 250cc engine will feel down on power compared to the other two, but will return more fuel economy on the flip side.
A test ride of these three will help you make an informed decision.
I have been riding a KTM Adventure 250 for the past 5 years and now want to experience a sportier motorcycle. My usage is mostly city commuting for work and leisure. I enjoy trying different bike genres over the years and like KTM’s design and performance. I am particularly interested in the Duke series. KTM is known for power, stability, and aerodynamics. For 90-95% city commuting, which displacement between 125 cc and 250 cc would be ideal, while also being quick and easy to maintain?
Hi, I have owned a Yamaha SZ-R since 2011 and am planning to change it in May. I am looking for a good bike suggestion between the Husqvarna 250 Vitpilen, Honda CB350 RS, Dominar 400, and Guerrilla 450 for office and family commuting as well as occasional highway rides.
Each bike you are looking at offers a very different user experience, so we'll list each bike's pros and cons so you can make an informed decision.
The Husqvarna Vitpilen 250 is a KTM 250 Duke that is wearing a neo-retro suit and as such will be comfortable, engaging yet not overwhelming to ride and return good fuel economy too. The downside is that finding a dealer could prove to be an issue depending on where you're located.
The Honda CB350RS is the slowest bike among the four you've shortlisted, but it is a proven machine offering comfort, good fuel economy and the promise of reliability in the long run.
The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 is the fastest, most powerful bike here and will feel the most lively to ride thanks to its punchy engine and eager handling. Its sporty - read: stiff - suspension setup may not be to everyone's tastes, however.
Lastly, the Bajaj Dominar 400 is the oldest bike here, and also the heaviest, but it packs in a powerful KTM-sourced engine and for highway touring will feel the most adept. However, its heavy weight will mean more effort inside the city.
We'd recommend you take a thorough test ride of all these bikes before you make up your mind.
I am 5'5" tall, slim built, and weigh around 60 kg. My inseam length is about 32 inches. I have been riding a TVS Ntorq 125 scooter for the past seven years and have never ridden a bike before. Please suggest a suitable first bike for city riding, preferably above 125cc but below 350cc. I tried the Hunter 350 but found it heavy, and I had to stretch my arms and lean forward to feel confident, so I dropped the idea. Please help. Thanks.
Given that you want something manageable and this will be your first bike, here are a few options we recommend.
The Honda CB300F and CB300R are both lightweight, well-built, and have low seat heights. You could also check out the KTM 250 Duke or the Husqvarna Vitpilen 250. Both are mechanically identical, but they differ in styling and riding posture, the Vitpilen has a slightly taller seat than the Duke.
All these are fun and entertaining first bike with a reasonable performance ceiling to keep you interested for a long time.
