I use same bike of 2022 model. Isme left side pulling ka issue thodasa feel hota hai jab ab handle bar chodte ho. Gear shifting is somehow hard mera bike 20000km chl chuka hai 4 5 service hua hai fir bhi facing this issue. This is not totally off road bike but ha agar highways ki baat kro you can easily do 800 to 1000 km per day. My longest ride was 10 days 4000km that to solo n bike me khi bhi kuch bhi issue nhi aya. Service cost bahut kam hai. Millage 32 to 35 tk milta hai below 7000Rpm and speed 100 105 ke bich me rehta hai 7000rpm me. This is very good bike for beginners jo long distance touring n touring bikes me ana chahte hai. N best part bike faltu ka kharcha nhi karati no extra cost of Maintance.
12 months and 20k on the odo, only issue is low end torque that can be seen when climbing ghat roads. Plus points are reliability, long distance touring, rider treiangle, stability, ease of maintenance. I did 900km in single day and mostly do 500km per day. There is very very little oil leak in right side head due to head gasket getting slightly melted. Left side pulling is present so hand less drice is not possible. Still its stable. Riders less than 5.8 dont get because one fine day with full load and a pillion, on a slope after a hard days ride, the bike will fall. Short riders can definittly manage but one fine day bike will fall.
Mera vstrom 250 with 80 to 100 speed mai 40 aa raha hai aur banglore city traffic mai 35 ka aa raha hai.did mild to moderate offloading and the bike is damn good.
I owm this bike & clocked around 11k kms in 7 months, and I'm getting 32-33 in complete city mileage and 39-41 in highways when cruising around 90-100kmph, engine is very refined & best for touring in this segment.
Which one is better bullu bhai, I loved Vstorm and Yezdi Scrambler. Mostly drive in Bengaluru city and on Mysore/ooty weekend rides. Not really a hardcore off-roader. Want something that super fun to ride bike and shortlisted these after trying all the bikes I aspired to buy.
I own a vstrom. It linearly accelerates upto 110 and starts slowing after but can go relatively linearly upto 120-125. I have also ridden xpulse on highways. The major difference apart from power is that after the speed of 85 kmph in xpulse it feels like the wheels are leaving the ground. like even if you want to take a turn and move the handle right, the bike will keep going straight as the wheels are in the air type feeling due to softer suspension. baanki vstrom is an excellent starter tourer but after a year you will start feeling that it is slightly underpowered
@@aakashm.2495 If you are a highway rider and long tourer and want some offroad features and bad patches, do not think twice. xpulse is nowhere close to vstrom if you can let go of extreme offroad requirements. and yes you can do more than enough off roading for a casual rider. only go for xpulse if you do off roading for passion else no advantages. rest is your choice
@@aakashm.2495xpulse I have I love this bike but it's seat is narrow so not too much comfortable for long ride , and for pillion it's uncomfortable even in 30 min ride. But overall I've done 8k so far and bike is good and light and amazing for off road. In highways power feels lacking a bit.
Hlo sir I was waiting for your review on this bike for long time I saw you were riding with Digvijay sir you both are my true biker ideal I own this bike for 10 months and i loved it Thanks for sharing your views on V strom 250
A Great Review By Bulu Sir and a major point which he stated that it's better on Highway than the Scrambler 400x. I am a VStrom Owner and really enjoy my ride on my Yellow VStrom.
I own a suzuki gixxer sf and I must say, Suzuki only cares about selling scooters in India; they are least bothered about the motorcycles. They make good and reliable motorcycles, but their aftersales service is not at all satisfactory. I have never faced any issues with spare parts though, spare parts are usually available in metro cities.
Bulu bhai, What do you think of Pulsar F250, in comparison with V-Strom 250 ? It is cheaper, has similar highway ability, Ground clearance is less (but experienced riders can do with that much, i guess), Spare parts availability is better than Suzuki.
Proud owner of this bike.. the facts that this bike attracts lots of eyes on road is very true, people doesn't hesitate to drool their eyes over my bike as I pass them on roads.. one of the reasons is due to the rarity of this bike on roads.
The major thing that is missing here is Slipper clutch which you find nowadays in 150 CC as well. I am looking for a bike that has comfortable riding ergonomics and decent power on highway rides. Can we consider this or Yezdi Adv 2024 latest model? Which is the better option ?I own an Interceptor 650 and lm not happy with riding ergonomics and maintenance cost. I would like to know your opinion on that
Hi Bulu, wanted your guidance here as confused between 3 bikes for daily city commute and weekend Ride purposes. 1. Hiness 350 2. Vstorm 250 3. KTM 25O adv Which should i purchase as avr is alomst similar of three of them.1 is cruiser and other 2 is adv. Pls suggest. Thanks
Bro . I've been riding duke 200 since 12 years and now i want to switch to something more comfortable to ride with pillion but with good handling.can you please suggest
fuel economy i get on highway cruising between 80-100 i get 42-45, and hard riding i get 38, i calculate tank to tank method and i ride 70 km on highway every day since past 8 months
Bulu Bhai, I have honda cb300r since 2022 but so far only ridden as a single rider. Planning to do tours with pillion now. Can you please suggest if I should go for some seat modifications on this or should I switch to some other bike? I like the refined honda engine, the bike's ability to pull in any gear & it's reliability a lot .. not able to make a decision. Your guidance will be very helpful. Thanks.. @BuluBiker A big fan of your content ❤
Bulu Bhau.. can you please compare this with the updated Yezdi Adventure that's launched recently.. which one would you recommend.. 70 %city 30% off-road/trails
Hello Bulu.. Hows this bike for long rides with pillion n with some luggage? Is it good ? Does it lack power if i ride with pillion n with some luggage ?
Hey Bulu, Nice that you finally posted your views on this bike. I just recently bought it and I'm very happy & satisfied with it. You're right, it's an "Adv Tourer". Agree about the fuel tank capacity, though. A slightly larger tank would've been ideal. But as you said, you can't beat Japanese reliability, for sure along with the engine refinement. Thanks for this!! Ride safe & tc!
I agree with most points 👉 especially about the hard gear-shifting since i have the old Gixxer 155 2017 version carburetted 😎. That cat is scary 😂, i have had problems of false neutrals in it while putting it into 2nd gear out of nowhere 😅. The gearbox is hard and notchy even when the bike has done 24.5k kms . Its a Suzuki gixxer character now , can't change it. But the engines are refined, raw and reliable low maintainence beast . The 155 or 250cc bikes are more about midrange actually with a decent topend since they are air-cooled and oilcooled properly. But yes the oil-cooled engine is unique in 250-450cc segment with oilcooling jacket with external oilcooler and a radiator fan to cool down the engine further real fast. And that's the reason why its so expensive compared to other bikes in around its segment. Its sophisticated adavanced oil cooling sets it apart from the competition. And yes the quality is great on Suzuki gixxer series and V-strom 250 models in India that's why they are a little expensive over competition.
Spot on review sir. I own a v-strom 250 and it’s been almost 2 years riding it. I agree with you 100%. As you said after 130kmph or 7000rpm the engine starts to vibrate a lot. But I would like to differ with you on one thing and it would be mileage, you see i have ridden it in the city and on highways and have taken it off road as well but i only ever got the lowest mileage was 27 kmpl and that was before the 1st service was done. This is just my experience sir, please don’t take it as a jab to you😅. And about the gears, they are still hard to shift even after 15k kms😂.
Absolutely brother u r correct, even these bikes were new nkt much ridden so may be after 2nd service or so the efficiency will be better, btw my 26-27kms mileage was only when I rode real fast for the whole day
Mileage will fall down to 22-25 if ridden @130-140. I have Gixxer 250 and noticed it. For a city like bangalore, and other normal highway cruising, mileage doesn't fall below 29 and averages at 37kmpl.

@BuluBiker Bhai aap k Bangalore me on road thoda zyada hai shayad.. maine abhi 1 month pehle Mumbai me liya.. Bike exchange offer me to mujhe 2.30 lakhs pada (without jacket).. aur mujhe pehle hi pata tha k iska suspension hard hai fir bhi maine liya kyu k mujhe bas highway touring k liye chahiye tha.. aur bhai mai 70-80 km tak max bhagata hu kyu k usually biwi aur bachi k saath ghoomta hu.. to mere liye kaafi acha purchase raha hai considering 2.30 price.. aap k review ki har ek baat maine experience kiya hu.,. excellent review :)

Hello bulu sir. I have a questions regarding CFMoto bikes. Do you have any experience with their bikes? I am hoping to get the CFMoto 450 MT once it launches in india (in case it launches at all). I am considering the 450 MT because I want a touring motorcycle with some off-road capability with relatively low seat height (since I'm on the shorter side). I've heard the seat height on it is 820mm and it goes all the way down to 800mm when lowerd. I've rode the new Himalyan 450 but that is too heavy for me. KTM Adventure bikes seem like a decent pick but the seat height on those is absurdly high. Is there any other options that I should consider according to you?
Thank u bulu bhai... I'm waiting for this review from a very long time ago... As I'm an owner of Vstrom SX250.... Im totally agree with ur review... Yes it's not build for off road.... But feels very good whenever I ride my bike in highways ... Big bike feel leni hai or budget jyada nahi toh u can go for Vstrom Sx 250❤️
Bulu bhai is a very good and genuine reviewer but there are few things i want to clear : I own a VStrom 250 since last 21 months. Last Jan i did Mumbai - Indore - Ujjain - Mumbai around 1800 kms approx my speed was bt 90 to 110 80% of the ride. I got an average of 41kmpl and its almost correct aft calculating in terms of Money i spent on petrol. Even in mumbai traffic i get around 35 to 37 always. And i think who rides 130/135 the whole day for a long ride,its good to ride for few minutes to enjoy. Very high speeds actually is very very unsafe for our Indian roads,90/100 is enough. About Power,it is enough for a 250 cc engine. If you want more power go for higher CC bike. And the bike is purely meant for 80/85% long rides with a good comfort and 10/15% for mild off road. I don't know why everyone compares it with heavy offroad bikes.
Agree with you completely..I have ridden 30k km in last 18 months..got 40 kmpl milage almost every time.. no gear shifting need in low speed when you are in traffic. And honestly I did a lot of off-road rides. I didn't face that much problems.
I own a suzuki gixxer. V storm shares the same engine as gixxer. Recently, my engine block is broken. So, in my opinion if one goes for a vstorm or gixxer, one should not extend the safe rpm range. It's for light travel and daily use (I am talking about my Gixxer here which is a good vehicle for daily runs. It has good stability and mileage) but it's not a performance bike or an adventure bike.
I own Gixxer 250 naked version I've touched 146km/h (using motul 7100) engine wasn't stressed at all. Suzuki's ecstar engine oil is not good enough for this engine.
@@hiteshts stock windshield is fine it will cover just below of you helmet. Otherwise it's good but if you are getting an after market windshield that would be great 👍
Bro Yezdi has better off road advantage. Butnissue with Yezdi is slightly vibh engine n Heavy bike. But I will ride soon one n give u a detailed review.
Recently i bought this bike bfr 3 months onky for long stretch & yes its so comfortable & i disagree with bulu bhai abt its avg. I got 45+ kmpl in 80 cruise & 30+ in city
Hello Bullu bhai, shall I go with honda cb300f or vstrom sx 250 ? I know both are different motorcycles and in different price brackets but still would like to know your opinion. My primary usage is in city along with occasional weekend rides. The main concern I have is regarding the long term reliability and parts availability of both these bikes. Your opinions and suggestions are much appreciated. Wish you good health.
Go with v strom 250 sx, apart from having reliable engine its also hving good sales, honda 300f is a food bike but they are not having good sales and may get discontinued in near future
@@mohanvaza4422 Thanks btw I have heard that there are issues regarding spare parts availability with Suzuki motorcycles. Would like if any long term Suzuki customer can throw some light on this aspect.
3:50 I beg to differ. This 250cc engine is crippled with issues, which crops up later, it has balancer issues which suzuki made a recall on just 199 however, more are affected. Suzuki is trying to brush it off. I am very disappointed on suzuki service

@@BuluBikervstorm aur scrambler mein kaunsa suggest karoge for someone who is 5"7 and wants to upgrade from 150 cc for a secondary bike, mainly for touring purpose.
@@karma6762 scramblers suspensions r the beet in segment bro vstorm suspensions no match to scrambler plus scrambler is more powerful too... I will always pick the scrambler
@@BuluBiker Bhaiya thank you so much for your fast response, I never expected so fast response. I want your suggestion in buying the speed or vstorm? Since in scrambler I think it would be a problem while doing spiti ride in crossing river as you would be more comfortable if you can plant foot even half and in arunachal ghats during winter as bike would tend to slip more so need foot to plant to control that or else will fall. What is your view on this? I can almost plant both feet in speed 400, but haven't tried my hands on vstorm yet. Only reason for considering vstorm is for its touring capabilities, mileage and more ground clearance. What is your view on this?

Bike exchange offer me to mujhe 2.30 lakhs pada (without jacket).. aur mujhe pehle hi pata tha k iska suspension hard hai fir bhi maine liya kyu k mujhe bas highway touring k liye chahiye tha.. aur bhai mai 70-80 km tak max bhagata hu kyu k usually biwi aur bachi k saath ghoomta hu.. to mere liye kaafi acha purchase raha hai considering 2.30 price.. aap k review ki har ek baat maine experience kiya hu.,. excellent review :)
This bike is very good bike..this bike parts are so good better than ktm and suzuki's parts so cheap thn ktm....no vibration..milege 80/90... 38/40...first service cost 900inr...and now on road kolkata 2lakh 45 thousand in cash
Completely agree
What would you suggest scrambler 400x or this?
Thank you bulu bhai
For your review
Was waiting for it for a long time ❤️
Hello bulu sir. I have a questions regarding CFMoto bikes. Do you have any experience with their bikes? I am hoping to get the CFMoto 450 MT once it launches in india (in case it launches at all). I am considering the 450 MT because I want a touring motorcycle with some off-road capability with relatively low seat height (since I'm on the shorter side). I've heard the seat height on it is 820mm and it goes all the way down to 800mm when lowerd. I've rode the new Himalyan 450 but that is too heavy for me. KTM Adventure bikes seem like a decent pick but the seat height on those is absurdly high. Is there any other options that I should consider according to you?
Is it good for 5.5-5.4 height person??

Thank u bulu bhai... I'm waiting for this review from a very long time ago... As I'm an owner of Vstrom SX250.... Im totally agree with ur review... Yes it's not build for off road.... But feels very good whenever I ride my bike in highways ... Big bike feel leni hai or budget jyada nahi toh u can go for Vstrom Sx 250❤️
Bulu bhai is a very good and genuine reviewer but there are few things i want to clear :
I own a VStrom 250 since last 21 months.
Last Jan i did Mumbai - Indore - Ujjain - Mumbai around 1800 kms approx my speed was bt 90 to 110 80% of the ride.
I got an average of 41kmpl and its almost correct aft calculating in terms of Money i spent on petrol.
Even in mumbai traffic i get around 35 to 37 always.
And i think who rides 130/135 the whole day for a long ride,its good to ride for few minutes to enjoy. Very high speeds actually is very very unsafe for our Indian roads,90/100 is enough.
About Power,it is enough for a 250 cc engine.
If you want more power go for higher CC bike.
And the bike is purely meant for 80/85% long rides with a good comfort and 10/15% for mild off road.
I don't know why everyone compares it with heavy offroad bikes.
Agree with you completely..I have ridden 30k km in last 18 months..got 40 kmpl milage almost every time.. no gear shifting need in low speed when you are in traffic. And honestly I did a lot of off-road rides. I didn't face that much problems.
I own a suzuki gixxer. V storm shares the same engine as gixxer. Recently, my engine block is broken. So, in my opinion if one goes for a vstorm or gixxer, one should not extend the safe rpm range. It's for light travel and daily use (I am talking about my Gixxer here which is a good vehicle for daily runs. It has good stability and mileage) but it's not a performance bike or an adventure bike.
I own Gixxer 250 naked version
I've touched 146km/h (using motul 7100) engine wasn't stressed at all.
Suzuki's ecstar engine oil is not good enough for this engine.
How was the stock windshield?
@@hiteshts stock windshield is fine it will cover just below of you helmet. Otherwise it's good but if you are getting an after market windshield that would be great 👍
Sir how is Dominor250 compare to vstrom 250?
Bulu bhai finally… I am telling you to review this bike from 2 yrs from now😊
Bulu sir mene yeh bike last week he purchase ki hai 235000 with 10 year engine and meter extended warranty and Suzuki riding Jacket free

Sir, please make a detailed review of Kawasaki W175.......
yezdi adventure bike ke bareme kya kehna lene jesi hai mene book karvayi kya Sahi hai vo bike
Best h bhai
Hello Bullu bhai, shall I go with honda cb300f or vstrom sx 250 ? I know both are different motorcycles and in different price brackets but still would like to know your opinion. My primary usage is in city along with occasional weekend rides. The main concern I have is regarding the long term reliability and parts availability of both these bikes. Your opinions and suggestions are much appreciated.
Wish you good health.
Go with v strom 250 sx, apart from having reliable engine its also hving good sales, honda 300f is a food bike but they are not having good sales and may get discontinued in near future
@@mohanvaza4422 Thanks btw I have heard that there are issues regarding spare parts availability with Suzuki motorcycles. Would like if any long term Suzuki customer can throw some light on this aspect.
Please compare vstorm with ronin..
Looks good and engine is smooth BUT underpowered with pillion, no 6th gear and most imp the hard suspension makes it a bad choice
6th Gear is there. Hard suspension- Yes, Underpowered with pillion- Yes. I have Gixxer 250
3:50 I beg to differ. This 250cc engine is crippled with issues, which crops up later, it has balancer issues which suzuki made a recall on just 199 however, more are affected. Suzuki is trying to brush it off. I am very disappointed on suzuki service
You are telling 3 years old news, please be updated 😂
@@pranavapte5475 doesn't matter if 3 years old or 5 years old. As long as the problem still remains don't be like RE fanboyzzzz man
@@killingmachinelp I'm using Gixxer 250 naked version since 3years, never faced single issue clocked 22k KMS
@@pranavapte5475 lucky you
Bro please tell me Suzuki VStrom 250 VS Honda CB350RS. Which one is best
Adventure tourers VStrom 250 VS Honda CB350RS which one is best
Had been waiting for your review on this bike since many months 😢
@BuluBiker

Plz🙏🏻 waiting fr this review
Nice video Scrambler 400 ka cruising speed kitna hai din bhar chala sakay?
120-130 easy hai lekin problem hai Wind blast as its a naked bike
@@BuluBikervstorm aur scrambler mein kaunsa suggest karoge for someone who is 5"7 and wants to upgrade from 150 cc for a secondary bike, mainly for touring purpose.
@@karma6762 scramblers suspensions r the beet in segment bro vstorm suspensions no match to scrambler plus scrambler is more powerful too... I will always pick the scrambler
@@BuluBiker Bhaiya thank you so much for your fast response, I never expected so fast response. I want your suggestion in buying the speed or vstorm? Since in scrambler I think it would be a problem while doing spiti ride in crossing river as you would be more comfortable if you can plant foot even half and in arunachal ghats during winter as bike would tend to slip more so need foot to plant to control that or else will fall. What is your view on this? I can almost plant both feet in speed 400, but haven't tried my hands on vstorm yet. Only reason for considering vstorm is for its touring capabilities, mileage and more ground clearance. What is your view on this?
Yezdi adventure or v strom 250???
Agar offroad me nahi chalana to v strom best hai.. agar offroad on road dono chalana hai to Yezdi adventure.. par yezdi me tubed tyre hai uska dhyaan rakhna
You are kannadiga? I saw you tshert so in the video
Bulu bhai please make a ride review video of honda cb200x
