Which bike would be best for a Ladakh trip?

Which bike is preferred for a Ladakh bike trip, theĀ  Yamaha R15 or the Bullet 350 Electra?

  • Answer:

    In my opinion, R15 will be a better choice as it is having Fuel Injection tech installed to it versus carburetor in a RE. Bike will get benefit as high hills has less proprtion of O2 in air. Additionally, if you are used to in riding on a R15 V2 for more than 3 months then body ache will not be a concern as body get used to the riding position. One more major factor is the power Vs body weight ratio of R15 is far better than a RE. I do have a RE TBT 500 model and a R15 V2 and I didn't find any discomfort while touring to Leh on R15. However, the pillion factor is something that R15 rider should re-think upon.

For Ladakh Bike Trip, I would suggest RE Electra.. If have have the choice to choose RE Tunderbird, then go for it because its a cruiser bike. It will be more comfortable for your journey...

No doubts Royal Enfield.... R15 would become a headache on a long drive.

I guess RE Electra, although you may have a different opinion. Think about why you need one and are you looking for in a beach cruiser bike. I suggest you read more about the differences and gather information on the http://atcemsce.org/best-beach-cruiser-bikes/ from some useful websites. This way you will know what exactly are you looking for in a cruiser bike.

Tough R15 is a better engineered bike. If anything goes wrong you won't find anyone to repair it. Where a RE can be repaired by using a wire and some electric tape.
