      • Fantastic fit and finish levels, makes it feel like very premium bike
      • 650cc engine is easy to use in the city and very capable on the highway
      • Handles quite well for its 240kg kerb weight

    • Royal Enfield Classic 650

      • At 243Kg - it's a heavy motorcycle and moving it around in the parking lot is difficult.
      • The suspension setup is more focused on stability, and hence comfort is not ideal for broken roads.
      • There are vibrations from the engine when pushed hard can be felt on the fuel tank and foot pegs.

      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

      The royal Enfield classic 650
      The royal Enfield classic 650 is one of those bikes that makes you stop and stare before you even turn the key. The moment you fire it up, the parallel-twin engine greets you with a smooth but deep exhaust note. Out on the roads, the bikes pulls strongly in mid-range. Cruising at 90-100 km/h feels effortless, and you can tell this machine is built to stretch its legs on highway. The 6- speed gear box shifts clean, and the assist clutch makes life a bit easier in traffic, though the lever itself is still on the heavier side

      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 .
