2024 Templar 250 Base Model Review - Page 3

I would be interested in your thoughts comparing the Templer X to the base Templer.. ride, height handling etc. Also what was your street gas mileage with the Templer X? I was thinking of one as a commuter but was looking for a larger gas tank.

The Templar X and base model share the same engine. Other than that, the Templar X is taller, has adjustable suspension and the 6th gear. Both bikes handled great both on and off-road, although the tires leave much to be desired.. Riding this past weekend on offroad fast trails, i was easily able to keep up with larger bikes in the switchbacks until the straights and they'd take off.. I cant recall mileage but with this one i get about 80 miles till dry, so that's about 46 mpg. The seat does suck comfort-wise, and im not sure what aftermarket options exist, so there's that as well. If you're just commuting and mostly paved, you may want to look into something more like the KPX which will be much more comfortable overall. I also had a Brozz 250 and that seat was amazing, all day comfort but it was the slowest of the bikes i've owned.
Hope that helps
