1. 2022 KTM RC 390
The 2022 KTM RC 390 gets significantly updated, to make KTM India's flagship supersport more practical and accessible for everyday use. We spent some time at Bajaj Auto's test track in Chakan, and needless to say, the new KTM RC 390 certainly made a strong impression.
The 2022 KTM RC 390 has undergone some practical changes and updates to make it appeal to a wider range of riders. The idea is to make it easy to ride on an everyday basis, give it more range, and yet keep its sporty character and personality intact. In all, the new KTM RC 390 really shines as a great entry-level sport bike which can be a great training tool for the track, as well as a great all-round sportbike for everyday riding.

2. 2022 Triumph Tiger 1200 First Ride Review
Our test route on the Tiger 1200 Rally Pro included back roads with varying off-road surfaces; not very technical, but enough to keep things interesting and test the rider's skill and confidence with a bid adventure bike.
The new Triumph Tiger 1200 loses weight and truly shines in most of the terrain and conditions that it will be used in. As a full-sized adventure bike, it still has the bulk and size which will required muscle power and help, if you happen to tip it over. But it's a definite definite improvement over the outgoing model, and has all the qualities to take the challenge to the very best in its segment! The Tiger 1200 is certainly worth a consideration in the full-size adventure bike segment!

3. Triumph Tiger Sport 660 Review
The Tiger Sport 660 has superb handling and balance. Grip and front-end feel are excellent, offering the Tiger Sport 660 a level of dynamics which is extremely enjoyable.
The Triumph Tiger Sport 660 offers an everyday bike which is agile, sporty and fun! It may not have the suspension or ride quality to take on rough terrain, and may show its limitations over broken roads and the occasional dirt track, but as a tarmac tourer, the new Tiger Sport 660 offers a very impressive package, which is compact, light, easy to manoeuvre and a whole lot of fun!

4. Royal Enfield Himalayan Scram 411 Review
For newbie adventure riders, the 19-inch front wheel set-up actually makes the Scram feel easier to ride, more planted and easier to manoeuvre than the Himalayan. In fact, the Scram is quite a versatile and entertaining package for those seeking a do-it-all motorcycle.
The Royal Enfield Himalayan Scram 411 offers a scrambler-esque take on the Royal Enfield Himalayan, with slightly less weight, a smaller 19-inch front wheel, and less bodywork! And it delivers in spades, as a fun, easy to ride motorcycle which is versatile, and can be used for a fair bit of off-road riding as well!

5. Yezdi Scrambler First Ride Review
Off-road shenanigans are where the Yezdi Scrambler comes into its element. Its relatively light weight, short wheelbase, and punchy low-end performance make for an entertaining experience.
The Yezdi Scrambler is one of the three new Yezdi models introduced at the re-launch of the storied motorcycle brand. As the name suggests, it's a neo-retro scrambler, which packs entertaining performance, great agility, and overall, is a fun package which can certainly be used for everyday duties and weekend off-road fun!

6. Hero XPulse 200 4V First Ride Review
With a kerb weight of 158 kg, the Hero XPulse 200 4 Valve offers a light and compact package, ideal to start riding off-road with, even for beginners.
The Hero XPulse 200 4V is a great package to start off-road riding with. With the new four-valve head, as well as changes to the fuelling and gearing, the Hero XPulse 200 4V feels slightly more eager, with crisper throttle response and more punch in the response. It's a great beginner's off-road bike, and can find a place in any garage as a weekend off-road fun bike at a budget. With a little more top-end performance, the XPulse 200 4V could have truly become a versatile and extraordinary motorcycle.
