I rode the manhattan guerrilla demo bike last week! Fun and comfortable wasn't it? I didn't like the engine too much though. It was too frantic for me. I was wanting quite a chilled out ride but the guerrilla eggs you on all the time... it was going to be a second bike, I've got a big bike for going fast, so it's frantic nature put me off somewhat....

Cracking little bike. Prior to this bike coming out I test rode a Himalayan 450 just to see how the engine performed, I was pleasantly surprised. I found the Himalayan a hoot to chuck about and can only think that the Guerilla must be a degree or two above that bike. You've gave me a real sense of how the bike performs on twisty roads and faster routes. Now I have to get a test ride on one of these and see how it fits me. I have a Classic 500 that's not going anywhere, however my Super Meteor might be heading to pastures new in the new year.

I have a fast 1000cc bike and I am looking for something that gets me through city traffic and narrow roads well and I think the Guerilla is what I want. Thank you for the video! I really like how you tested the Guerilla, well done my friend. All the best and kind regards from Austria!

I test rode one yesterday, the handling is lovely and it’s surprisingly fast and easy to flick around corners with quick direction changes. The only criticism is that you need to use the gearbox a lot as it doesn’t like pulling lower speed in higher gears unlike the old 411 engine which had great lugging power. I agree with you on the brakes, the best I’ve ever used on an Enfield and I’ve had a 500 Bullet EFI, a Himalayan 411 and a Meteor 350. All in it’s a great bike and another winner for RE.

Enjoyable review, Mr Loftybiker!! It's a great machine and I absolutely love the looks, performance and handling. I picked mine up 3 days ago (in Playa Black) but with the weather as it is, I've only managed just over 100 miles so far. I traded my Hntr 350 in after 18 months and 7000 miles ...... another fantastic machine, quite different to the Guerrilla but perfect for what it was ....... was sorry to see it go 😥Keep those reviews coming 👍Cheers, Phil (Somerset)
