Triumph Speed 400 compared to this one.

[@arupbezboruah9546]

This guy's review be lyk "this bike rides well, handles well, great fuel economy, very aggressively priced, everything is good....but still not a great bike"😂😂😂

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Well, it misses the magic that other RE bikes offer.

[@BlackHawkTejas]

​@@BikeWaleOfficialWhat Magic? It is competitively priced, RE has a vast network of dealers, newer products are great & from all other reviewers who rode this bike they, can't fault it, be it Indian or foreign ones who rode it in Spain. Better keep your personal preferences away from your professional views & verdict. And please define what is magic? And anybody worth its grain of salt knows RE is trying to position their newer models differently from before!

Hahaha. True. But, you really need to be committed to get them to ground.

The best review than all other KZbin channels as always. Salute to vikranth Singh!!

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Thank you! :-)

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@warmfishsalad]

So, you are saying bike has no problem, but there is a problem. 😂

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

It misses out on the magic that other RE bikes offer.

[@warmfishsalad]

@@BikeWaleOfficial Idk what magic are you talking about? Be specific.

[@vikrantsingh6916]

​@@warmfishsaladso, it is good bike. Well rounded and it does everything. But there is no usp or strong reason to buy it. Which others like the ktm, speed, and the harley present. And that's a problem. Because unless you have a compelling reason to buy a bike at thus price point and segment, you won't. It shows the overall sales numbers which are quite poor for they should be.

[@winterwarwolf4193]

You forgot to mention the biggest rival, Triumph speed 400

[@vikrantsingh6916]

That's true. The Speed 400 would be its closet rival.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

We have mentioned it in the conclusion.

He doesn't like Triumph.. right from the beginning.. just like Michael Schumacher in a particular channel..

[@shonith91]

Well, you were probably the only reviewer who mentioned that it comes with sintered brake pads. Heck after taking the test ride i did ask the sales person if it had sintered brake pads and he had no idea 🤦

[@sriyanshbhardawaj9290]

One of these days going to take a test ride and decide for oneself if there is the desired magic or charm the motorcycle has. I know I had when I took classic 350 reborn to The sweet roads of konkan ❤

[@fellowuseless227]

I can see lot of soo called RE fans shitting in comments. It is his personal preference that would be posted in review as it is him who rides the thing. Well, Magic means the feeling of riding and enjoying it, the ease in it. Sometimes, everything would be good, but the feel wouldn't be right, if you cannot understand that, you r not actually RE fans and you guys don't know the 'Magic' RE bikes give while riding. Good is not always the preferred one when you have many options.

[@sriyanshbhardawaj9290]

The sense of magic when riding a particular motorcycle can be attributed to a combination of factors, including: 1. Emotional Connection: A strong emotional bond with the motorcycle, often rooted in nostalgia, memories, or personal experiences. 2. Sensory Experiences: The unique sensory stimuli of riding, such as: - Sound: The distinctive engine note, exhaust tone, or wind noise. - Smell: The scent of fuel, leather, or the outdoors. - Touch: The feel of the bike's ergonomics, vibrations, or wind on skin. - Sight: The view from the saddle, the bike's design, or the road ahead. 3. Empowerment: The sense of freedom, control, and confidence that comes with riding a motorcycle that suits your personality and riding style. 4. Nostalgia: Memories or associations linked to the motorcycle, such as: - Past adventures or experiences. - Iconic designs or classic models. - Famous riders or racing heritage. 5. Personality Match: The motorcycle's character, performance, or quirks resonating with the rider's personality, preferences, or values. 6. Exhilaration: The thrill and excitement of riding, amplified by the motorcycle's capabilities, handling, or acceleration. 7. Connection to Heritage: The motorcycle's history, brand legacy, or cultural significance. This sense of magic can transform the riding experience into a memorable, almost mystical encounter, making the motorcycle feel like an extension of oneself. P. S. It's personal and varies person to person

I didn't expect non-spanish speakers to get the "rr" and "ll" right, but at least try to get the vowels correctly!

[@vivekvlog5773]

I took a test ride today, rev and performance is unbeatable however felt a bit ache in my deltoid area while riding. What could be the issue exactly I couldn't find out? Might be the sitting ergo

[@vikrantsingh6916]

I didn't find any issues with the seating ergos besides the seat padding. And no pains either after a day long ride; besides the bum feeling slightly sore.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

The right technique is to involve your core muscles and grip the tank with your legs. This will take away the strain from your hands and shoulders.

[@Ajay.Saw88]

I completely agree with this review.. The way RE mocked other brands for using plastics, it end up using plastics for fenders, tails and other parts. Moreover, this bike doesn't offer most necessary features a true roadster bikes do.. only GRR won't be enough... 😂😂

[@chandanbhakuni2061]

Aapka review badiya lagta hai.kya city ride mai frequently gear change to nahi karne padte isme vikrant ji.jaisa new Himalayan 450 mai hai

[@vikrantsingh6916]

Himalayan ki Tarah gear changes karne padte hai. 3000rom ki niche attached se nahi chalti Hai Guerrilla.

[@G-Man01]

This bike seems to have more than enough magic to enjoy.

[@logicalindian_777]

The tank looks big enough for 16 litres capacity, tank size is a deal breaker

[@supriyomandal448]

Himalayan with cross spoke would bring more charm than this!

[@vikrantsingh6916]

I am sure it will. Himalayan is special, purposeful, and unique. This one is too mainstream.

[@singhshakti1980]

Yet to see the reviews on Indian roads.. Every dynamic changes when u ride here. Yes its a RE newbie, vibes aren't missing, a chopped up Himalayan chassis, telescopic forks, not a top end weapon and low end grunt is missing, but in a typical RE fashion, mid range is good and it looks refreshing.. And finally it comes down to the test ride and visual appeal..

[@AST7117]

Dude ... People have been riding on Indian roads for 4 days by now... Go check out other channels. Even booking have been going on for 3 days now

[@kaushals4294]

Forgot to mention about smaller tank size while comparing to himi450

[@vikrantsingh6916]

That's true. It runs an 11 litre tank now. I didn't get into the specifics in termsof design. But it is a fair point and worth mentioning.

[@Seekay92]

​@@vikrantsingh691615 would be better, in looks and the range.

[@ManAtWar_8895]

will the fat tyres affect light off-road abiility? or rrue off-road capability for that matter

[@UnknownUser0x01]

Less fuel capacity, No Traction Control safety, No Switchable ABS , No USD suspension, No premium Monoshock just only a engine power House roadster with Himalayan frame which is prone to break if heavyload given!! Nah man. I'm going for the Triumph Scrambler instead ✅.

[@G-Man01]

Less fuel capacity than what? It's the Himalayan engine, not frame. USD forks aren't needed on road bikes. Those aren't offroad tyres, and it's a fatter front tyre. You don't need switchable ABS or traction control for such a low powered fun roadster. It's not an adventure bike. If you want to take it off road, you get the Himalayan or Scram.

[@UnknownUser0x01]

@@G-Man01 let's agree to disagree! As per my perspective RE has reputational issuers with OBD 1 unit's. I will shift to RE if they can prove to me that their product is far reliable & better than triumph Scrambler 400X.

[@IM_RishavSingh]

Why no one is showing the analog variant?

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Because on such media rides, mostly top end variants are available for test.

[@SumitsLifehack]

Sit length is not that large . Is It Comfortable For Pilllion ?

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

We didn’t test it with a pillion. But, it should be similar to the Himalayan 450.

[@harshadsubhash]

Could have just asked someone to at least sit on back seat and check the ergos...why did you go all the way to spain😂😂😂

[@FoxyCAMTV]

[@Seekay92]

The only drawback is the small fuel tank,

[@Sudhi2884]

Would the clutch be a problem for city commutes?

[@PranjalShukla7]

In low speed yes

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

We’ll report on that once we test the motorcycle in India.

[@angshumansarmah6626]

Will RE bring a 650 twin DOHC engine?

[@abhishekkulkarni1546]

Do we get tubeless tyres in the Guerilla 450?

[@Thegeekishnerd13]

Yes. Alloy wheels

[@CampTlangram]

Look at the wheel.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

Yes. Tubeless tyres with alloy wheels.

[@shantanujaiswal5459]

RE has lost the charm with its 450cc engine. There is no low end torque now as it used to be. It can never compare with Classic/Bullet 500s which they discontinued and trying so hard to make us believe this 450 engine is better than their 500s.🤭

[@yellowflash511]

True, but they're not trying to fool you into thinking that though hence they've kept the 350 and 650 engines in their "normal" bikes. This 450 is only coming in new iterations, not the classic/bullet/intercepter etc. those still have the old engines that everyone likes

[@jj5302]

You're a fool to think this 450 is a replacement of the 500. 650 twin is the real replacement of the 500 cc engine.

[@46rise]

Yeah ,but the 411 series is a pure low end torque bike.

[@warmfishsalad]

If you link RE only with long stroke engines and not let them explore other categories, then yes

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

The 450s are in no way a replacement for the 500s. This is a high-performance platform that offers better mid-range and top-end. You have the 350s and 650s if you want an old-school motorcycle.

[@subhadeephazra5308]

What a scam, just buy a hunter 350 instead of spending 1 lakh more 😅

[@AayushPratapSingh-sz7sg]

How is its acceleration compared to speed 400

[@vikrantsingh6916]

I think it will be quicker than the Speed. The throttle response in particular is quite alert on this one; not instant but strong.

[@vivekvlog5773]

@@vikrantsingh6916 yes indeed, it's really quicker than the speed

No. Not really. It needs suspension travel and lesser weight. But would be interesting to find out if the Him suspension fits onto this. That might make for an interesting looking thing.

[@Chandra_Maths_Movies]

Who gives telescopic suspension on 450cc motorcycle? usd forks were required to make this bike look aesthetically pleasing. Rider comfort is more in speed 400. Price of speed 400 is better than its best color. Looks are subjective but this bike doesn’t look like pure metal RE. Also, the look is not so gentelmanishh, its kinda for too young. I am in my late 30’s, idk if this will look good on me compared to speed. Best color is costliest. What if i want analog with that white and blue color tone?

[@AST7117]

😊 Go take a test ride on nearby re showrooms .. it's available now... It's far better than the speed 400. Paper specs and reviews cannot do justice to the guerrilla
