Autocar India says: With your budget you can go for a much more expensive bike than both of them, including anything Suzuki HayabusaHowever, since you mentioned these two, we will recommend our recommendation between them. While it spends more than double the Aprilia, it provides almost double performance and it will feel like a more special motorcycle with its inline four engines.
In addition, Honda CBR650R has created a concrete reputation for reliability, proper running costs and great resale values. For Aprilia, recently some disturbing engine reliability issues have been raised by RS owners and we would recommend to see how Aprilia India handles the status.
