    After meeting Bosky sir in person yesterday and seeing his video today.. I must say he is as cheerful and lively being in video as well as in person, even more i would say… One thing i like about him is he doesn’t overload his video with technical specs and he doesn’t overly complicate things, he does things in his own way simple, clean and flowing content all the way through…

    Bosky, I'm pausing the video at 5.51 where you're talking about the mechanical clatter of the Himmy. It is so good to hear someone like you point it out. The mechanical clatter of the REs is a thing they should've paid a bit more attention to when designing a brand new engine in todays day and age. Agreed that its not a problem (as pointed out in one of your previous videos), but something that gives the himmy an unrefined feel.
    As always... love the content you put out together with CK. Hats off gents.

    • @bigbearbangalore
      @bigbearbangalore  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I would not call it frequent. Most engines burn some oil and need a top every few thousand kms. Harder and heavier the usage, the more the oil burn. I've nit come across anything unusual on any well maintained KTM.

    Hello Both, thank you for sharing your thoughts on this 400cc lineup.
    Being a 'less than 1 month' owner of the Scrambler, it was good to see your consideration of its features which was rather than a validation, more of a vindication of my ability to judge my motorcycles well/ So thanks again.
    Coming to what I'd improve on the Scram -
    1. Fuel tank - ~14L with a usable capacity of ~11L is a pittance. I'd prefer a usable tank size of 14-15L
    2. Brakes - Organic brakes for scrambling while 95% of the customer base would be using this on the tarmac. Easy to switch to sintered, but a gremlin nevertheless.
    3. Headlight - lots of light leakage. The low beam focuses right at the front tire and no definition to the throw & focus.
    4. Gearing - 1st gear is non-existent/very short, only useful to bring the motorcycle into momentum rather than actually accelerate substantially. I'd prefer gears 2-6 to actually be 1-5 & wish there was another above the current 6th for the highways.
    5. Tire noise - 5th gear 4-5K RPM & onwards, I hear the distinct tire whine you generally hear from load bearing trucks/lorries on the highway. I'm assuming it's a characteristic of the tire in particular; nevertheless wish it wasn't there to poison the bass-y thump from the exhaust.
    I'm staying off from mentioning about the engine/tappet noise seeing that I'm yet to complete the first service; I've heard from other owners that the noise dies down significantly after service, so looking forward to that.
    Thanks again!

    I’ve been eyeing the KTM for a while now , but have been held back by the low end torque, scared about the top end , and put off by the suspension given the competitors right now … I believe these are areas which are deal breaker issues …considering the fact the mostly I’m gonna spend time in city traffic .. also at that price I think the engine should be more refined … but yes I’m also eagerly waiting for the new one to come out and hoping it’s gonna blow everything else out of the water .. super video ! Just what a somewhat informed enthusiast is looking for right now … speak volumes about how no script can compete with just real simple experience 😊👏🙌 oh almost forgot .. from what I know so far I’m super envious of the reviews the triumph is getting in regards to the fit and finish and engine refinement … but sadly I’m just not that into retros … oh what if they launch a mini tiger ?!?! 😮😮😮😅

    Great video guys. The easy styling of the video puts CONTENT as front and square which is excellent. Opinions may differ and should differ and that's where a more nuanced comparison would come out. I personally feel there is a bias towards Triumph 400 but thats bound to be and perfectly OK. Why Husky 401 was not included beats me as on design, engine, shocks (adjustable), tyres, weight, engine and some other factors that stands out heads and shoulders above this lineup. Keep the videos coming 🤟

    I got the scrambler 400x a month ago and yesterday did my first ride of 250kms, mostly highway (Bengaluru to Krishnagiri Dam with breakfast stop at Murugan's), I was riding at an average of 80-90kmph and even pushed it till 110-120 and still felt it has enough juice left to push it further. It was really comfortable to ride, even the pillion preferred it over Honda CB350's. I enjoyed the ride and the bike has performed way better than I expected. Some nitpicks: Rear braking isn't good, headlights are weak, needs bigger windscreen for higher speeds.

    Even though the last 5 min may seem scripted, the very candid nature of this video brings out very apt review of bikes across multiple factors.
    I own g310gs and I personally feel suspension is the best, as good as himalayan but most importantly the weight and agility of the bike compliments the suspension setting more. Took me some time to get used to the vibrations since I moved up from Honda Unicorn. Given the competitor bikes in segment it is like calculating the average of all the specs, except the price. But if I were to upgrade, I would go for something in 650-750 segment considering the exposure this bike gave.

    Thanks to both for unfolding the attributes of these bikes . Perhaps you may prepare a matrix outlining all these attributes and assign points in a scale of 0-10 . Also may enlighten the viewers on the best value for money bike considering the cost of ownership, perceived resale value, etc... For reference, I recall visiting BMW to book 310 but dropped the plan when I was told that its headlght console itself would cost Rs 52,000 .
    This is a must watch Video for purchase decision 👌 ❤

    Deeply appreciate you both for a unbiased detailed analysis ❤. I own adventure 390 and I am very happy with my purchase. The fully adjustable ktm suspension especially for the rear costs 7200 which greatly improves ride comfort and absorbs everything brilliantly after softening it. Front suspension costs 22k and make little difference compared to rear suspension which makes a huge difference. I haven't ridden the new Himalayan 450 and wonder how it compares to the Himalayan massive suspension. Anyways appreciate your detailed knowledge sir's 😁👏

    I don't have much experience riding these motorcycles, but with the limited amount of experience, I agree with most of the points that you guys said. Love these opinion videos about a bunch of the best middle-weight advs that are currently available in our country. I just wish the Honda NX500 and the Hero's upcoming Xpulse 400 were also here to complicate things for you guys. 😂
    Triumph Scrambler 400x would be my choice for everything I would require a bike for as it is the perfect blend between ADV and a road-biased motorcycle, but the only thing that I am not very sure about is the service network and the service cost by itself when compared to much pocket-friendly service costs provided by brands like Ktm and Honda. But on the other hand, I am really looking forward to the next-gen Ktm 390 or 250 Adv with the updated design with changes to the engine setup with a much better low-end torque.
    I don't know when on Earth I will be financially good enough to buy a good bike, but when I do I wish that I could sit down with you and help me choose a motorcycle tailored to my needs. A good video as always.

    I like the natural dynamics & casual approach you both present. Good job.
    I have a deposit down on a Himalayan 450 & eagerly await its arrival here in Australia late this month or next. Though I am concerned by the weight, I cant see where it comes from, I would have expected 10kg lighter at least. Highway vibration is the other concern, this is why the Dual Sports I have don't fit me for longer trips. A comment would be nice, I only need 115kph to get me down those highways I can't avoid. Cheers from Downunder

      There is a buzz on the H450 at highway speeds and it's not intrusive. And it can run at 140 kmph all day so the 115 will be quite comfortably accomplished.

    Nice comparison video! I own one X440, and the only issue I found is the seat's holding screw. I have the tourer seat, and the screw gets loose whenever I ride about 100+ KMs with a pillion! I lost the screw once; moving on, I always tighten the screw after reaching home! Nothing happens while riding alone, though.

Since you brought up the Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 - I have been eyeing that bike for a while now, but sadly no test rides have been available in Bengaluru so far - between the Himalayan, Scrambler 400X and the Svart 401, which would be your pick for city riding and highway munching (not as much off-road, just standard Bengaluru roads and a trip to Mysuru, etc)?

    Hi, I had a few questions about the Himalayan 450. I test rode 3 different Himalayans and I noticed that at low rpm, the engine starts to knock. At like 2nd gear about 25km/ph the engine seems like it lacks torque and knocking is the most prominent in 2nd and 3rd gear. The speedometer too was VERY inaccurate and showed speeds way beyond what you are riding. On my phone and my watch the speed was 40 when the bike showed me 52. And this was the scene in all the 3 bikes.

    • @bigbearbangalore
      @bigbearbangalore  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Then may be the rpm is too low. Ride it slightly differently. This is unlike a typical long stroke RE. Needs a little more rpm and throttle. Speedo error is quite common.
