Spec Comparison: Yezdi Adventure vs KTM 250 Adventure vs Hero XPulse 200 4V vs Benelli TRK 251 vs Royal Enfield Himalayan vs BMW G 310 GS VS Suzuki V-Strom SX

May 3, 2022 by Glen Francis Leave a Comment

Adventure motorcycles have become the talk of the town. From the current crop, Royal Enfield sparked this cult with the Himalayan that has been a successful model for the brand. However, quite a few manufacturers also wanted to have a piece of this pie. While the veteran is the Himalayan, one of the most iconic motorcycle brands – Yezdi have made a comeback and this time with not one but three bikes, one of which is the Adventure (read more here), which slots right into this segment. As budget has been a constraint on the budding enthusiasts of our country, here are a few options that you can consider while dipping your toes into the adventure-touring segment.

Coming to the weight, the Himalayan tips the scales at 199 kg, making it the heaviest of the lot while the tiny Xpulse 200 4V weights a scant 158 kg. As for the tank capacity, the Benelli gets the largest tank in the dogfight – an 18-litre unit while the BMW G 310 GS gets an eleven-litre unit, making it the smallest in the segment.

In recent years, however, the MT-10 has begun to show its age, especially in terms of technology and rider aids. It was always on the thirsty side, too, and, by modern standards, the brakes were lacking. It was time for an update, which is why for 2022 Yamaha introduced a new MT-10 earlier this year.
