Duke 390 R booking confusion , please help me a bit

So , I visited 2 showrooms recently for the Duke 390 R , one of them is new and the owner of the showroom ( BU Bhandari ) is quite famous here in my city for almost all showrooms ,

And visited another showroom which is a bit far away from my home (30 min drive ) where they tried to push me for the Duke 350 more , but they gave me the testride for the Duke 390 R as well

Now , I asked both showroom for booking cost etc , the

Bu bhandari guy is offering me 10 years warranty for free ,

Meanwhile the Other showroom salesman said that who would need a warranty for 10 years , the company already offers 5 years warranty

Asked him which helmet do they provide , he said best quality certified, I was excited to hear " KYT / ECE22.06 " but he said " Steelbird " hshsbdbahaha whattt

What should I do?

Also , how should I negotiate?

Can I get the acko insurance for the bike , saw it was cheaper (₹18000) approx

And ktm offers bajaj Allianz ₹25k

Should I ask the bu bhandari showroom for a KYT HELMET INSTEAD OF THE WARRANTY?

PLEASE GUIDE ME THROUGH THIS

7 years old , and now I'm getting emotional after thinking of selling her for upgrade

So , this is

Apache RTR 200 4v Race edition 2.0 ( 2019 ) model BS4

This isn't technically my bike , but my elder brother's , he shifted abroad so I am the one who's been riding her for years...

Now , I am thinking of upgrading to the Gen 3 Duke 390 R (399cc) , talked to my dad but the first thing he said , ask the showroom if they have any exchange facilities

I'm shattered currently thinking of letting her go , can't process that if I want to upgrade , I'll have to sell her

Idk what even to process in my mind , like being practical vs being emotional !

The bike is in an immaculate condition, maintained like new , looks new , feels new , not exaggerating.

I am just like someone who lives around me or knows me should buy her , I'd like to see her in some good hands

I don't even know what price I should quote my RTR !

Kms- Approx 25000 km

(24,930km to be precise )

I'm not selling here at all , just expressing

Duke 390 R vs Duke 350

I was in love with the Duke 390 (399 cc ) but currently the prices they've increased , it isn't like I can't afford paying a bit extra , but please tell me if the 350 cc and 399 cc has much difference?

A few months ago I went to a KTM dealership, the salesman quoted me 3,72,000 onroad for the Duke 390 , but I guess for now I'll have to pay ₹40,000 extra as Tax

Also , I do have a bike already and I was just aiming for the Duke 390 , I'm in my 20s , I do want that thrill & am a responsible rider as well

Please if anyone can/ duke 390 owners can share their experience?

Currently I have Apache RTR 200 4v BS4 Race edition 2.0 , would love to either upgrade else nothing

Need your help guys
