All Royal Enfield Bikes Are Now BS6.2 Compliant
With the BS 6.2 norms, select RE motorcycles have gotten dearer by Rs 3000
The BS 6.2 emission norms came into effect on April 1, 2023, and manufacturers are on a spree to update their motorcycle range. The government allowed sales of the old bikes until inventory lasts. Following that, the manufacturers would mandatorily have to make the bikes BS 6.2 or OBD-2 (equipped with the second-generation Onboard Diagnostics Device) compliant.
In order to comply with the new norms, Royal Enfield has updated its bikes, and some of them have witnessed a price hike. Here is a list of bikes that have become dearer.

Apart from being OBD2 compliant, the bikes are also E20 compliant, meaning they can run on mixed fuels with 80 percent petrol and up to 20 percent ethanol. Summing up, it’s heartening to know that the premium isn’t substantial enough to affect the buying decision. In a recent development, a more affordable Royal Enfield Meteor 350 with spoke wheels was spied. Wondering what else is new? Check out our analysis here.

So, I have owned this bike for like 3 years now, and no major problem has been there. It works well, looks amazing, and has low maintenance cost, at least for me. But the only thing is that it’s more of a cruiser, so from a speed perspective, it kind of lacks. Overall, a solid choice, just like its name, it’s a Bullet.Read More
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. Read More
