8 Best Retro Style Motorcycles For 2019

[@TheInterloafer]

1:32 Kawasaki W800 Street. My favorite.

[@MrSlickJerk]

and also Royal Enfields

[@timothyphillips5043]

Nasty copy of a British classic design.

[@dougfielding8215]

Kawasaki ownership comments rave about how much fun the bike is, how comfortable it is and the quality of the parts

[@ManojGNair-xr8os]

Ridiculously high cost of Rs.8L in India...should have been around Rs.4.5L if you go by the euro price shown here...which appears logical

[@hughneek12]

Have a look at the new Benneli Imperiale. It will be right up your street. They make it in a maroon colour, very vintage.

[@Nichideutsch]

Kawasaki and Triumph are the most good-looking bikes among all the ones.

[@rickg.5171]

Royal Enfield deserve a nod.

[@markussukram9290]

[@nickspacey4652]

100% Agree..hate all these plastic bikes

[@dougfielding8215]

@@nickspacey4652 I agree, many new bikes look like transformers. The true classic bikes look so inviting. The W800 Street is my pick but the RE and Triumphs are considerations.

[@dennism103]

Triumph has always been the king of retro

[@ashishsethi2178]

Royal Enfield GT 650😍

[@manjucs2331]

Kawasaki is way too retro. Great design 👍

[@dougfielding8215]

Kawasaki W800 Street, great bike and very retro. 2nd is the Royal Enfield Interceptor. The Kawi is a bit higher quality but does cost more than the RE. The Triumph is nice but even more expensive and has water cooling. The Yamaha SR400 should be there also but no electric start.

[@timjohnson1199]

That's about right.

[@EllisBurton3339]

Royal Enfield for me ,Triumphs redicoulsly priced .

[@dam4274]

[@deod7686]

I love the royal Enfield gt650 and i had booked it

[@dougfielding8215]

What happened to the double pinstripes on the top of the tank of the Kawasaki W800 Street? Maybe a pre-production bike. Exceptional bike to ride. Far faster and smoother than what I was expecting. Effortless steering and clutch pull. Excellent sound from the tuned '60s style pee-shooter exhaust. Superb attention to detail and bevel drive top end.

[@MrAndrew1953]

The Harley 1200 Sportster, Indian 1200 Flat Tracker and Thruxton are all pretty hard to beat. No BMW 9s? Surprising.

[@abhijitsapkale]

Speed Twin 😍

[@GeDoBa]

The Royal Enfields fulfill my imagination of a motorcycle. They show their naked engine polished and not blackened. But I could not decide which to buy, the Interceptor at 0:05 or the GT at 9:35. A look in my pocket gives the answer: „Not yet!“

[@elitepunch1498]

Great video however m not sure how Indian FTR is a retro?

[@alexaguilera3822]

Here is missing a T120, couldnt be a ranking without that bike!!!

[@hasheerhanzala7492]

Weting for cb150r and xsr155cc

[@papaji448]

RE 👑 rocks..

[@malacite1]

The Indian looks positively futuristic, not retro! The Thruxton is the most beautiful.

[@pablosadelmundo]

I'm sorry but the thruxton has non-homogeneous look, is ugly and very expensive. On the contrary, the Enfield Continental has personality, harmonic lines and great value.

[@extreme978]

I want to see tall sissy bars on these like the 70, 80s bikes

[@fulcher64]

For me the ones from the list i would chose would be the RE however, just a note here the triumphs reviewed are the special ranges, a basic 900 twin is a lot cheaper albeit maybe not the "new" models that are reviewed here, as for the Indian...why!! to me that's not retro. Anyway for price and retro styling the ... yep RE Interceptor

[@eduardosantiago6414]

Que bonito letrerote estorbos de applause y música no dejo ver nada

[@athonyvaloni7091]

I love the Triumph, The indian would be pretty bad ass but i dont like the red frame

[@dougfielding8215]

Anthony you can get another model of the same bike with a black frame for a bit less money.

[@colbrt]

Am I missing why the Indian (which seems like a really cool bike) is "retro" in your eyes? Also, good luck with the Benelli, looks cool but probably most retro in the lack of modern-level reliability!

[@darrenfrater3496]

I've had one for a year now and can't fault it at the price.

[@robertkollath8929]

No kawasaki w800?

[@tyrssen1]

Well, that Indian (circa 5:15) was just 100% hideous, and not "retro" in the least; nor is the Bennelli. My favourite may well be the new Royal Enfield; now, THAT'S retro styling, though I could live without the plastic extension on the rear fender.

[@ivortheengine14]

Wot’s retro about the Indian ???

[@timjohnson1199]

The name?

[@7m285]

Thing is........the Enfield is not a retro bike, it's a modern bike for them. It's the real deal and a great bike too, just hope Hipsters don't like it and spoil the plot.

[@DomRivers67]

The W650/800 is more genuine than the Triumphs that have no connection to the original company The Kawasaki is a reissue of a previous 1965 model they made under licence from BSA (with modifications) Great little bikes (expensive though, even used)

It's also £3,000 more expensive.

There's no such thing as a contemporary factory retro that's even remotely cool

Cool is that they are reliable, decent power, good electrics, stopping and performance. But, I get it. I used to work on mine a lot and I was intimate with everything on it and there was pleasure in that.
