2025 KTM 390 Adventure R bookings open

A few dealers have unofficially begun accepting bookings for the upcoming KTM 390 Adventure R, ahead of its official debut. The motorcycle was recently showcased at the EICMA 2024. KTM India is expected to launch the bike in three variants- the X with the low seat height, the standard and the top of the line R. It will be a brand new motorcycle instead of being a facelifted version of the existing 390 ADV.

Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350 specs leaked

A few days before the launch of the Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350, we got access to the specification sheet of the bike. The bike weighs 197kg without the optional pillion seat, but with the rear seat it is heavier by 9kg. Also, the ground clearance stands at 170mm. Moreover, as we already know, it will come with a taller handlebar, and white-walled tyres. Most of the other aspects will mostly remain the same as the standard Classic 350.
