          • Pros
          • Cons

          • Kawasaki Z650

            • Packed with features
            • Claims to offer better mid-range torque than the BS4-compliant version
            • Looks aggressive

            Aprilia RS 457

            • Looks - looks sporty, aggressive and premium. Good build quality and sharp design mean it attracts a lot of attention
            • Engine - lots of torque throughout the rev range makes commuting very easy. Quick overtakes even in a gear higher are effortless
            • Tyres - the TVS Eurogrip Protorq Extreme tyres are fantastic both in dry and wet conditions, no complaints there
            • Features - the TFT console is user-friendly and offers a lot of useful information
            • Price - at Rs 4.10 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), it is the mo

          • Kawasaki Z650

            • Low ground clearance
            • No electronic aids
            • Engine isn’t exactly known to be exciting

            Aprilia RS 457

            • Riding posture - the clip-on handlebar is low-set and on the committed side, not the best for everyday commuting
            • Firm rear suspension - the RS 457’s monoshock is on the firmer side and lighter riders will be tossed around a bit when going through potholes and sharp speed breakers
            • Reliability - the RS 457 is coming out of a factory that’s never made a bike before so its reliability and how Aprilia handles its after-sales service is yet to be seen

            Worth every single penny
            I am a huge fan of riding, and this bike delivers what almost every rider want , an aggressive approach and smooth handling. Just loved it , however, cost of maintenance and other stuff can get quiet expensive . If you are looking for an weekend kinda bike , then I'll recommend it but not for city (especially crowded cities like mumbai) where u hardly get good patch with low traffic , plus u will encounter speed breakers at the least expected place , so for everyday it's a NO. I cannot stress on how good it glides , even with heavy pillion . Overall a great package if your budget allows it

            Even after spending over 8lakh I will get No traction control, No riding modes, no quick shifter. Shame on kawasaki for manufacturing such a good motorcycle with no feature.

            This bike is a lovely
            This bike is a lovely machine and best under 500cc segment The power and the handling that it give you is just out of this world, suspension is on a harder side but you can adjust it and it is giving me 27kmpl mileage and this bike is best for those who want a budget sports bike and you can even call it a mini superbike and this bike beats it’s competitors like r3 or ninja 500

            Rs457 ownership review
            One of the best performing bike in the segment with no compromise in any of the category. Service cost is as same as gt650 and mileage 20km/l u ll definitely enjoy this killer machine for its 270 degree crank engine. Yeah it is priced a quite high but not priced more than r3 . And yeah this bike has got ram air intake in it overall beginner friendly beast. Low end torque is very good that is i can maintain a speed of 40 in 6th gear just imagine about its tractability in traffic
