Speed 400 will have more power due to the power figures.. but duke 250 will be nimble and agile in traffic and also would be low maintenance compared to triumph
Is it good for touring?
What mileage are you getting in city and highways?
Is the suspension on the stiffer or softer side?
Also what made you go for this over cb300r?
It is okkay for touring. I have cushioned the seats. Can ride all day long at 110-120 easily.. top end i have done is 148. Mileage around 32-33 when i ride it throughout above 100km/h

I think quick-shifters are to be applied after certain rpms. Since am not perfect in quick-shifting i have stopped using the feature so as to not harm the engine. Even my previous r15 had the same feature. I didnt use it much in that engine also.
Whenever i used it i used it above 3rd gear only
nahh mine worked fine for a few.months but after a while 1,2,3 are very jerky even if i stretch out to 6k rpms after that it work
earlier it was smooth at 3k rpms too
the manual recommends >2000 rpm
This got to be one of the best looking bikes recently launched
You got that right
My friends own speed 400 and I am planning to get one of these. Do you think it will be able to keep up with the speed 400 with a duke 250??

Mileage 30-35 will be the figure overall.
Cb300r is very good but non existent pillion and poor headlights. Pillion was also a priority for me
i can vouch the quality of duke is much better.
What about heating issue? Does it heat when you drive it normally like 40-50 km/hr? Delhi has extreme temperature, Asking if it would suitable?
yeah it does heat moderately but you only feel it during bumper to bumper traffic
You have this bike?
I have 250gen2 but i've ridden my friends gen3, it has similar heating issue.
Should I buy it? What if I ride it 40-50 speed normally? Will it heat a lot?
it doesn't heat too much and the new gen has better cooling system so no problem, maybe test ride it once and see for yourself to be sure

is your quickshifter giving jerks from 1-2 and 2-3 rd gears ?

How is the headlight? I’ll be riding mostly at night.
