      Beast named bear
      Im a tall person and i needed a tall bike and the looks of this golden shadow is just beautiful. I would have chosen interceptor 650 but this just was it when i first sat on it in the showroom. Cant get over of it. Posture has to be perfectly aligned will hurt if you don't sit right and the pull is amazing, even on the 5th gear you can feel the bike wanting to run ahead loved the overall experience, needs a seat change and tires can be better, my personal opinion If you are tall and need a 650cc from royal enfield id definitely suggest this bike way too good but, there is always a but be careful with the suspension, heavier the person better the suspension, the pull is great (torque) better than a gt most people would disagree but whatever.

      Thrill and Joy With Bear 650
      Being an owner of legendary bullet-350 for 13 years this was going to be an upgrade from castle to scyscraper, from bull to bear!! Riding Bear-650 is like watching action packed movie, you dont want to miss a beat; pacy, thrilling experience. It will make sure that it stays with you even after you left it in the parking area. Immense torque and power, a bit stiffer on suspension but you will get used to it and I think that stubbornness is what makes Bear the Bear. Go for it, if you want fun and thrill and not to forget that feeling of towering road presence on road while overtaking, making your moves.

      Best bike I ever wished to buy for .It's been 9 months. I feel no issues. it's majestic and people turn around when u ride I love this bike to ride ! It's even more amazing on highways! It's the best bike for me. Clutch and break positioning is the best compared to all 650 segments. this bike shines out best .

      Fire 🔥 Smooth
      Absolute genius move of designer and engineers to create this 👏. This is one of the best bikes I have ever experienced in my life. I want some more of these models for my family and friends. The smoothness and refinement of engine is like another level pushed in this range, the pickup and the stability is of course tooo good.

      Dont buy if you are underweight
      I choose this bike because. It gives you good features in this range and it moves smoothly on highways as compare to city but it is comfortable in city also. If you are buying this for long drives then you should buy this. Smooth on highway as compare to city its feature are far better than any other bikes and handling is so smooth if you are beginer than you should buy this one it will give you comfort while riding the bike. You should have Muscle power to control this above 20 year old person should buy this because if customer weight is not much then he can't even move it while off. Because of its heavy weight u can see some problems but i can give you the gurantee this is worth it bike i have ever seen i have more than 11 bikes but this is my favourite one.

      Love and Hate for this amazing ride Continues
      I chose this bike because of the Smooth ride, great pick up and effortless torque with its parallel twin engine. Also the safety on long distance rides with its anti breaking system (ABS). While it is little heavy for city traffic, but it is unbeatable for price and performance. I have bought the bike second-hand from another person. While he had clocked 15000 km on the odometer, I have already done 17000 within a year, with 3 cross-country and 1 coastal route ride covering the entire coastal belt. I am loving it, though sometimes the low mileage and frequent pit stops are annoying. I would recommend this bike to people who will use it for long-distance rides and not use it for going to office or riding in traffic. In city traffic a lighter 150cc is better. But on long distance rides, interceptor is smooth like a hot knife through a butter.

      Royal Enfield interceptor 650 a true twin classic
      I chose the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 because it offers the perfect balance between classic retro design and modern performance. The twin-cylinder engine, smooth power delivery. Best bike till the date I drove. The ride experience has been excellent. The engine is incredibly smooth, especially compared to single-cylinder bikes. It feels relaxed at city speeds and very confident on highways handling is safe due to damping. Yes, I recommend this bike because of best looks and little bit maintenance other wise best bike and the torque is greater. I am addicted to bike what a bike, Its feels relaxed at City and very comfortable on highway.

      Simply lovely
      I am royal enfield fan and wanted something that will turn eyes. With a retro look and a classic bike. The bike has a god rubble to it and has an easy engine to work with if you are into doing diy mods or service. The passanger space is very un ergonomic. Eg. if the pillion wants to sit comfortably they usually put their leg on the gear shifter and the break leaver. The seat is also less cussioned i.e. softer making the pillion a lot fall under hard acceleration. For Batchelors and non pillion riders mile munchers happy go lucky travels who want to ride seriously but chill at the same time. And if you a rumble enthusiast you must try the bike.. it not be the best in a spec but over all its a good bike.
