Hi Autocar India, I’m confused between the V-Strom SX 250, Speed 400, and Scrambler 400 X. I’m 193 cm tall and weigh 103 kg. I’ll mainly be riding 50-60 km per day in city traffic and on broken Kerala roads, usually at speeds below 90 km/h. I do very little touring, no off-roading, and occasionally carry a pillion. I love the agility and cornering ability of my SF150 and want a genuine upgrade without high ownership stress. Which one would you choose specifically for my usage? Please don’t give a generic “all three are good depending on preference” answer. Compare their real-world comfort, handling, suspension, maintenance, and compromises for my use case.
