      Royal Enfield Interceptor 650
      Interceptor 650 has been an amazing bike to own. The 650cc parallel twin engine is smooth, powerful and fun to ride specially on highways. The exhaust note is addictive and the bike feel very stable on high speed, overall a great combination of performance, classic looks and riding experience. I have thoroughly enjoyed owning and riding it.

      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.

      A good one
      Yes, obviously for style and comfort but if fuel is concern then it's not for you. If you go with torque and power it have, you will feel it during riding and maneuvering is easy and smooth, however, it looks muscle based body. Highly recommended.

      Great bike
      Overall the bike is great for both city and highway rides as I stand 6.2 ft at 88 kg and it quite nimble as well as the weight distribution is very good with great torque and power figures. It’s a comfortable bike but the rear suspension is a bit stiff which can easily be resolved by replacing it with the classic Nitrox ones and it’s decently priced as well. However the biggest cons I found was the front led headlight which is honestly pathetic and the unreliable fuel tank indicator.

      I choose this for its style modern look and millage due to my daily commute and my budget. With this bike, my experience was amazing, easy to handle, no tiredness, feels well on long ride, I go to the nearby cities. Smooth on highway and city traffic is difficult to handle.

      Awesome cruiser bike in this segment.
      Best highway bike for long trips. This bike is recommended for the trip lovers and long route destinations. Also, this is best for daily use from office to home. This bike is best comfortable bike in this segment. Best experience ever. I drove that bike from Jalandhar to manali and the tour was very comfortable. I would always recommend meteor 350 in this segment. Relax driving is always best rather than fast driving. Yes, if you are looking for best highway comfortable bike, then go for meteor 350. This is basically confortable with both solo and pillon, and for long trips you can go for this bike. Just speed would be less rest is ok.
