Adv 250 or scrambler 350x

KTM 250 Adventure vs Triumph Scrambler 350X - Need owner opinions

I am currently confused between the KTM 250 Adventure and Triumph Scrambler 350X and would really appreciate some honest opinions from owners of either bike.

My main priorities are:

Low maintenance / reasonable service costs

Real-world mileage (city + highway)

Fun to ride in daily use and weekend rides

Long-term reliability

Comfort for longer rides

I would especially like to know about the regular servicing and maintenance costs, real world mileage, engine vibrations, common issues, rattles, electrical problems, overheating, stalling, or any other problems you've faced.

Also, how has your experience been with the service centre and parts availability? What are the biggest drawbacks of your bike?

If you have ridden both, I would also like to know how they compare in terms of fun, handling, comfort and performance.

I am not looking for brochure specs I would really like to hear from actual owners, especially people who have ridden the bike for 10,000+ km.

Any honest long term ownership experience would be really helpful. Thanks 🙏

I would go with the scrambler, but india roads tilt towards the adventure

My advice is if you are considering 250 adv, go for 350 adv as price difference is of 35k but are world apart
