The Nissan Kicks comes in a segment which has seen no new launch since quite some time. The Duster is coming to the end of its life cycle and the new generation is still some time away.

The two offerings, the Continental GT 650 and the Interceptor 650 are called the twins for a reason, they share the same chassis, engine, transmission and other components. The changes are quite subtle which change the way this bike rides but everything else remains pretty much the same. We covered the platform of these bikes in detail in our review of the Interceptor so do watch that before Read More...
