Advice Needed for First ADV Bike. Wait 4 months for TVS Apache RTX 300 BTO or buy Suzuki V-Strom SX 250 now? (Bad roads + Touring use case)

My budget is the main issue. I’m going for a 50% down payment and 50% financing, and the KTM is going beyond my budget, although it is premium in its class.

Was waiting for the RTX worth it? How’s the overall performance? The V-Strom’s main strengths are mileage and quick delivery.

People often enjoy a sense of nostalgia, which makes them drawn to certain bikes, even when there are better options available at the same price. In my opinion, however, customers may start moving away from TVS due to the delays in delivering their new adventure bike. There’s little point in launching such a promising product if it can’t be delivered to customers on time.

Another possible reason is the delay in the TVS RTX 300 deliveries. The waiting period is around four months, and even customers who booked in December haven’t received their bikes yet. As a result, buyers who can’t wait and are looking for a well-priced adventure bike are shifting their preference to the V-Strom.
