                  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.

                  I usually use this bike for daily commutes and even after all these years, I am as much in love with this bike as I was on day 1. Trusted buddy and reliable friend. Be it city riding or highway runs - excitement in every throttle twist. Performance - 5/5 Comfort - 4.5/5 Looks and Presence - 5/5 Ride and Handling - 5/5 Reliability - 5/5

                  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.

                  This bike capable of performing well off road
                  BSA B65 Scrambler is one of the best bikes in the 650cc lineup. The robust and strong looks, 19-17 inch spoke wheels and Pirelli tyres make this bike capable of performing well off road. The 650cc power from the engine feels quite strong, and the raised mudguard also enhances its adventure-oriented look. Priced slightly higher than the Goldstar 650, this bike seems to be the perfect choice for those who are more stylistic in their riding game. Can't wait to see how it rides.
