i've got my first two years riding under my belt. on my RE Himalayan, excellent city bike. thing is a mule, it's not fast, never will be. but it's a capable bike. relatively cheap... and has ABS. dirt easy to work on/perform maint or mod. to me, looks cool. I get asked about it fairly often, and the small community of RE himi riders is extremely helpful and enthusiastic. I'll prob put another year or two on it... upgrade to a Ten700 but can't recommend it enough as a beginner bike

[@Kingofthepnwdorks]

I own three bikes, my Himalayan was the second I bought most recently (I’ve owned probably 9-10) I keep it because I don’t need my off-road bike to be fast. It gets 65-70mpg and is great for off-road or short grocery runs. I use it as a commuter mostly and it’s awesome for it. Plus as you probably know, parts are so cheap and easy to fix. My sportster and softtail are way more expensive to maintain and while much higher quality built wise, are an entirely different experience.

[@rossseverance9231]

I've put 10k on my benelli 302s with zero problems and only regular maintenance. It's been a pleasure to ride, so much so I ended up getting into the leoncino trail recently. And that is seeming to go the same direction.

I have a Versys X 300 as my first bike. I love it. Pros: great mpg, nimble, but feels planted while you are riding. Cons: it's light enough and has a large enough profile, any sort of crosswind will definitely send you into a different lane. I also weigh 250lbs so it'll do highway speeds but I have to drag it kicking and screaming the entire way.

[@victoriazero8869]

I understand the crosswind issue but I've never heard anyone saying Versys 300 as light lol. Only the P-twin V-strom 250 is heavier, and that thing was basically ADV Gixxer 250.

Must be around some crazy mountains, even when I was a skinny below 100 pound twig riding my 250cc enduro with 30+ mph crosswinds and 50+ mph gusts changing directions randomly I never went into another lane. 1 direction of the trip was highways around noon, so one side of my tire got worn down on the side from leaning over against the wind all the time, lol!

I owned a 2019 302s here in China it was pretty good and I was pretty happy with it but wished for a bit more power and a bit lighter weight. In the begging of 2022 I test rode the SRK 350 and found out it’s lighter and has more power - a much better, more complete bike. But I am not sure you can get QJMOTOR models in US.

[@nicksmith4808]

I mean depends on where you live, I always said best beginner is a 250 dual sport. And then you move on up to a 450. In the northeast and living in the Appalachian mountains, having something to ride backroads and still go where dirt bikes will go is a plus. My XT250 does need to be almost wide open to run the 70mph speed limits, but my dr650 does it just fine. Only thing is the dr is a little heavy when you drop it down a hill side or into a deep mud hole. But I think something like a wr450 would be perfect to do both

Not knowing any of the other bikes, I can't comment other than to say you've the Interceptor fairly rated as one of the top bikes. For me, the riding position was a deciding factor when looking at quality motorcycles in the same class. That it is a constant head-turner and compliment eliciting machine has been a surprising bonus. Know the RE Continental GT 650 is much the same bike but in a cafe racer style. Embrace the pain, Yammie. You added credibility when you and your sidekick admitted you were wrong about the Royal Enfields. Many compliments to both of you.

It's not a hardcore off road bike but the alloy rims are lightweight and plenty good enough for the dirt roads and slow trail riding that it's intended to ride and the tubeless tires are awesome. It's a good urban commuter that handles well and is fun to ride. Yammie's anti-BMW bigotry is ugly. :-)

Gearbox is great, smooth shifting no matter how hard you beat on it (Fortnine did a nice piece on the whole segment on how they have "stupidly over engineered the thing," makes sense.) Major complaints: 1. seat is uncomfortable for long rides (it's angle slides you forward, crotch first into the tank, HARD) 2. Electrical is a known issue. My speedometer just up and died randomly. on the way to the shop for a fix, it came back to life. New Enfields come with Brembos and they had a recall on all break systems, so that was reworked (mine had a swap after I bought it) - they tended to stick when cold, apparently.

where is Suzuki TU250X??? just asking cuz i got one for my wife as starter bike. She likes the look of classic flat seat, which means she'll want either triumph T100 or W800 for her next bike.
