          Pros & Cons

          • Pros
          • Cons

          • Yamaha R3

            • Design - looks like a proper Japanese sportsbike and will grab a lot of attention
            • Versatile engine - tractable enough for city rides and rev-happy enough to enjoy being ridden hard
            • Handling - changes direction with minimal efforts and inspires a lot of confidence when tipped into corners
            • Comfort - tall clip-ons and a relatively upright riding posture means it’s quite comfortable for a sportsbike

            KTM RC 390

            • Outstanding Performance
            • Best-in-class electronics package
            • Ergonomics adaptable enough for both commutes and aggressive riding
            • Fantastic handling
            • Powerful and refined engine

          • Yamaha R3

            • Cramped lower body ergonomics - riders above 5’10 will find the lower body ergonomics quite tight
            • No features - quickshifter, traction control and every Bluetooth connectivity, the R3’s console misses out on a lot of things that other bikes in the segment offer as standard. All it gets is a digital console and ABS
            • A price tag of Rs 4,64,900 (ex-showroom Delhi) makes the R3 a very expensive bike
            • The R3 is expensive and not the best value for your money. That said, it’s still a very reliable, fri

            KTM RC 390

            • Could do with better tyres
            • Front suspension should have been adjustable
            • Could’ve gotten better fit and finish quality

            Excellent bike
            The KTM RC 390 is a standout in the entry-level sportbike segment, offering a perfect blend of performance, style, and technology. Powered by a 373cc single-cylinder engine, it delivers an exhilarating 43.5 horsepower, making it ideal for both city rides and spirited highway runs. The bike’s lightweight trellis frame ensures sharp handling, while its WP Apex suspension and dual-channel ABS provide confidence-inspiring stability and braking. The aggressive design, complemented by full-LED lighting and a TFT display, enhances its appeal. Though the firm seat may feel uncomfortable for long rides, the RC 390 remains a top choice for thrill-seekers and enthusiasts.
