    • Royal Enfield Bear 650

      • Gets a stiff suspension setup
      • Misses out on tubeless spoke wheels
      • 2kg lighter than the Interceptor but still a heavy motorcycle

      Royal Enfield Shotgun 650

      • 240kg kerb weight can be felt at slow speeds or when moving the bike around in parking lots
      • Ride quality is far from good. People under about 75kg will be tossed around a lot
      • Given its weight and size, it should’ve had at least a basic traction control system for more safety

      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.

      Worth it..
      This is an excellent bike and had great fun riding. The back seat is include along with the bike. Had 1250km run including office travel and long rides and it has been fun doing both. Great comfort. The sheet metal grey gives a batmobile feel and experience. Looks damn good without the back seat, I generally carry it in my backpack.

      Review on Shotgun 650 (best in segment)
      The reason I buy this bike was to get a reliable bike with price range up to 5 lakh, and I wanted a comfort and a good looking bike, so rather than getting GT 650 I chose this, and honestly I didn't regret my decision. Its a bike with comfort and power. Even Super meteor is there but that is more suitable for Long ride. So for shorter and comfy ride I chose Shotgun 650. Talking about positives, Really good looking bike, you we be the centre of attraction. Royal Enfield reliable engine with one of the best performance in this segments. Gives confidence on high speed. Talking about the Negatives, its a Heavy bike, so not suitable for every person, heating issue, not a major issue as this is ha heavy bike and so this is common. Yes, a person who want a good looking bike with a satisfying mileage and comfort and suitable for city rides. Even a person who want long tours with this bike is also possible but still there are better touring bike with this price range.

      Best bike under 5 lakh .
      This looks very cool on road. I'm impressed by his looks, and it come with 650cc engine. It gives me extra attention on road. I also looked for re super meteor650 but I personally love this one. It's seat height, exhaust everything is amazing. It's feels very comfortable while riding. I went for long ride with this bike around 130 km from patna to my home town it felt so comfortable. However, the mileage is less It gives u around 17 - 18 per litre. I personally recommend this bike to people age above 25 because it is a strong machine with heavy weight. Even this bike is so stable but it needs power to handle. It's gives u old bullet vibe with extra features and power overloaded .
