                  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 .

It not a bike it is a super bike.
