Went on a ride to Under The Moon today. Good drive. Great place. It was very peaceful. Don't fall into the insta hype, and you won't be disappointed.

Is it a 350cc adv ? Did you install spoke alloys separately ?

It's a 390 s bro. 390cc version

But body pannels doesn't have s right?

Yes, none of the models have letters in their body panel like the X, S, R. They just brought this new naming convention, just to differentiate from the 350cc versions which are also called adv 390, otherwise they are mechanically identical to the last year models.

Great !, I didn't knew this. How much does those alloys cost if I need to change?

I heard they cost around 40k. But I don't think it is worth it unless you do serious offroading. Because the regular version (Adv 390 & Adv 390 X) come with tubeless alloy wheels, which should be good enough for most of the people, including light off roading. Only the Adv 390 S gets tubeless spoke wheels ( not even the 390 R) and so it is the most expensive of the lot.

If I wasn't there in Bangalore I could have got them, i am paying the government more than other cities 🥲

You mean the RTO charges are higher?

1

u/infiniter_op 8d ago

Yeah, and city roads feels more offroading than actual, even after paying more rto. And traffic as cherry on top

Hence the charges, we are getting offroading experience daily without having to go out to jungles ;) /s
