I am looking for a bike suitable for adventure and long touring, and I am confused between the Hero Xpulse 210 and the Suzuki V-Strom 250. I like the looks of the Xpulse 210, but I want to know if…

As far as touring is concerned, both the Hero Xpulse 210 and Suzuki V-Strom SX make for good machines that will be up for the job. But when it comes to off-road riding, the Xpulse has a clear advantage over the V-Strom with its 21/18-inch wire-spoke wheels and long-travel suspension. Choosing between the two will boil down to exactly how much off-roading you’re realistically going to end up doing. We’d also recommend a test ride of both to see which machine fits you best.
