Thanks you for your comments! I do my best to keep up with them for the first few days after a video comes out, but due to the volume of comments on all of my videos, and to the general hustle and bustle of life, I must give up the fight after a while. If you are leaving a question four or more days after a video comes out I can't guarantee I'll see it, but perhaps one of my other viewers knows the answer and can help out. Thanks in advance to those who contribute and share their knowledge. Cheers and stay safe everyone!

Simple, great looking motorcycles that aren’t overpriced.

[@marsoelflaco5722]

... and relatively easy and inexpensive to maintain.

[@barrywootton929]

I have had many motorbikes but I now have a R/E 350 classic ree born and it's a superb Bike 😊

[@danielkerr4100]

​@@leeinwisnope, I own int 659 and hnt350 both amazing qualities

[@karlfonner7589]

I see a lot of them for sale used. That tells me something.

[@dmaxcustom]

Who could have guessed. If you build something that looks good, performs alright at an affordable price, people will want to buy that. Amazing!

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

I know. And it doesn't cost as much as my truck either.

[@bigal6684]

I got a Hunter 350 last year and love it. I'm 61 and have owned many bikes over the last 45 years and I can confirm that bikes like this have an appeal that goes way beyond "beginner bike" status.

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

Yes, I saw the Hunter at a couple of bike shows this winter and they look amazing in person.

[@briand4000]

I picked up a very low miles Classic 500 last summer and absolutely love it! I'm turning 60 soon and this bike just hits so many marks for me...looks, simplicity, reliability, handling and economy. I've owned lots of bikes and still ride a BMW R1200RT for serious touring and highway use, but the Enfield is just so special and crazy fun to ride. Harley better pay attention and realize that they're alienating their customer base, seemingly ignoring (at their own peril) what the next generation wants in a motorcycle. One can get a LOT of motorcycle without going broke with a Royal Enfield.

[@StickPeopleAndPuff]

I'm a young guy in the USA. I'm 28 and picked up a brand new interceptor for around $7300 last month. Admittedly, I did trade in my 1982 Honda GL500 Silverwing and I am a diehard Honda fan but for the price, the look, and the affordability it was a no brainer. I want a bike that looks old, but I'm done riding old, unreliable bikes for now. I took the bike in for my first service last week and the dealership had a Bullet 350 on the floor and I told the salesman the only reason I didnt have more Royal Enfield's was because I havent made enough money yet. Both the 350 and 650 are little gems of engines

[@marchettejw]

I contributed to their numbers in 2023, I purchased an Interceptor... I don't regret it at all.

[@marsoelflaco5722]

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

Awesome bike. Sounds great with the S&S slip ons.

[@donovandale7077]

After 30 years away from riding, RE got me back into it with a 350 Classic, 1/3 the size of my previous bike, and i couldn't be happier.

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

Yeah, those bikes look legit and are easy to handle. What's not to like.

[@jez6208]

I've owned a Classic 350 Signals Desert Sand for about 10 months. I'm 58. Only got my bike licence last year. My little thumper is the first bike bigger than a 125cc that I've ever owned. It looks like a WW2 dispatch rider's bike. I absolutely love it! I have to add an hour on wherever I go because so many people love it and ask questions. Lots of pics get m! At £4500 with a 3 year unlimited warranty, what's not to like? I've added stuff to it and removed the pillion seat. It's bloody awesome! No bells and whistles. No fancy crap you don't need. Just a bloody amazing motorcycle. Well done RE. Great video. Thanks mate! 👍😊

Much of the success of RE in the recent past should be attributed to the vision & leadership of the current MD Siddharth Lal. We in India are getting tired of several test mules of their upcoming bikes which are rumored to be Bullet 650, Classic 650, Hunter 650, Scram 650.. just to name a few ! While RE sells 900K units a year, Hero Motor Corp sells 5.5 million units !!

[@rover100bunson]

thanks for that, never heard of that brand hero over here in uk

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

That's true, but Hero doesn't send its bikes to Canada so I never get to see what they're offering. I have a feeling that RE will grow faster than Hero as they are more serious about expanding internationally.

[@donaldelder540]

Hero raced this year in the Dakar, they had some technical issues, but you can bet they will be taking on KTM and Honda in the near future

[@sathishrao7926]

@@DifferentSpokesTV Hero doesn’t export their motorcycles to the west as per my knowledge. Their bread and butter is sub 200 CC motorcycles. Recently they got into partnership with Harley to make Harley 440X motorcycles (currently sold only in India)

[@stevieneilson2451]

Im on my 5th RE and I love them. Absolutely no problems whatsoever. The great part is that you can maintain these bikes yourself at home. RE have tutorials on-line the even show you how to do it. Other manufacturers only want your cash at the stealerships..!! Well done RE giving the majority of riders what they've asked for and not pander to rolling computer brigade with the deep pockets...!!

[@NYCZ31]

Harley shit the bed with the nightster but it’s clear their main effort is going into baggers and trikes. The smaller “entry level” bikes are a mere afterthought. Royal Enfield had placed itself perfectly to take over the younger buyer where Harley failed to do so. The question for RE in the future will be whether they try to make something in the “Heavyweight” segment or stick to middleweights.

[@nickolaslewis4416]

Considering that in most overseas markets a 400cc engine IS heavyweight, I highly doubt that they will. They make great bikes nonetheless.

[@marsoelflaco5722]

I hope that they stay in this "middle weight" division and keep the bikes simple and affordable.🤞🏽

[@freeman10000]

Hopefully Royal Enfield doesn't go down the over sized, over priced route.

[@gcanaday1]

I still want to see a classic-styled KX 1100. I'm in the US, displacement makes us happy.

[@davidbrayshaw3529]

The horsepower game is run and won, or should I say run and lost. The Japanese, the Americans and the Europeans have all but ignored the market that the Indians have tapped into with the Royal Enfield range. Smaller to mid sized bikes with a bit of style, adequate performance and a good price point is something that was forgotten by everybody else. Yes, you've got GB350's and SR400's, but that's it. Why would Royal Enfield leave the market in which they are the leaders? There is hardly a dearth of bikes in the "heavyweight" segment. Everyone makes one. But how well do they sell? Royal Enfield sold nearly 5 bikes to HD's one, last year! Royal Enfield have a winning formula: Just make bikes for real world riders. It should be no surprise that it's working for them.

[@arunstalii3666]

Everyone should thank Bajaj motorcycles for making Royal Enfield update their motorcycles. RE started getting serious of updating with better engines for their motorcycles after Bajaj released the dominar 400 back in 2016.

[@strangeguest]

In January 2024 I have owned a Classic 350 Gunmetal Grey. Its Comfortable & smooth while riding as feelings of Royal Ride, Special Bike.😍

[@brianq103]

I bought my son a Meteor 350, which he is riding in Bolivia. While it doesn't have the kind of power I'm used to, it's a monster compared to all the 150's everyone else is selling there. I think RE's timing is perfect. With the climb in form, function and build quality the Chinese made motorcycles are achieving, I think we will start seeing other Indian brands like Hero start to bring legit motorcycles here. Hero can start by making me a nicely priced replica of their Dakar bike!. 🙂

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

I'd love to see Hero and Bajaj start making cool bikes for western markets.

[@bigal7963]

Power is certainly relative. I can enjoy driving my reasonably priced Mazda all day long without lamenting that it doesn't have the power of a Corvette!

Am looking to upgrade to the Indian Super Chief in the near future when the money is right, but am enjoying the INT for all she's worth. Definitely a great entry- ( or re-entry in my case) level-bike, but am ready for that next level of performance and challenge. I can barely pull of 100mph on these crazy Texas highways. Keep that shiny side up!

I have one of the best Royal Enfields ever produced...The Continental GT 535. Single cylinder, air cooled cafe racer. it only has 29.1 HP and 44 Nm; it is very nimble, light and has great looks. It is the best bike I have owned in years.

[@IggyWildcat]

Wow! That is some crazy growth. And that’s with a limited dealer network in North America. I think HD dealers should be allowed to become retailers. That would be one way to support their own dealers. It’s not like Royal Enfield sales would be cannibalizing their own sales. If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em. Plus, you might be able to upsell customers to a Harley on their next bike. My two cents…

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

Good idea. HD has no beginner bikes so it would make sense. But then they would find it harder to upset you to the Nightster. It would be like bringing the Trojan horse into the gates.

[@youcantsubscribeme8544]

RE is honestly the best bike brand ever considering their affordable price, loved your video

[@robertlindstrom540]

That 450 will be great engine in most of RE:s current lineup. Those 350s are brilliant looking, and well built bikes but underpowered for the western market. That new engine will fix that and when it does the sales will really hit the roof. Provided that they can solve the dealer problem, while still keeping the prices competitive.

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

Yes, 20hp is a bit low for North American highways.

U have to answer yourself only one question. Are u able AND willing to pay 11k+ for the Tenere instead 6k for the new 450cc RE Himi? The new engine is no prob 4 me. Every well named Motorjournalist incl. Itchy Boots have tested it roughly in the Himalaya over 5k or more Kilometers. The Essence is clear: Very good Bike with little Issues that can fixed easily! Any questions left?

Back when a 650 was considered a BIG bike. (The rifle is still the best hunting tool in Canada's North.) Pretty"slim" looking Brooke,eh? If they made a 850cc 2024 Interceptor , I'd trade my Z1000, which is faster, but, the heritage would bring me full circle. And Noraly likes them-especially the new 452. Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.

[@nickwinn7812]

The next move for Royal Enfield ought to be a 125. This is the entry level for new riders in Europe and building brand loyalty early on would be a huge bonus for them. A good 125 would also sell well in Asia and Africa where many riders simply need cheap reliable transport.

[@ankitkumarambe6552]

I don't think, RE is ever going to produce any bike below 350cc. In India also they never launched any bike in the 350cc segment below. Hero, Bajaj and TVS are Indian brands which are doing very well in the below 350cc market segment and also have a good market share in African countries as well.

[@robluce6334]

I have a number of motorcycles including a 2021 Royal Enfield 650 Continental GT. It isn't the fastest, best made or most exotic.

Nowadays, Royal Enfield has a huge club scene, a vast dealer network and looks set to be a strong brand for the long future to come.

[@richard_the_lion_farted]

Royal Enfield, if you are listening... A stripped down Flat Track edition of the Inter-erceptor 650 with 17" rear wheel and a 21" (or 17.. just not 18") would be pretty sexy indeed.

[@thegreenman2030]

If you have riding experiences and you are drawn towards a Tenere 700 which I consider a serious ADV bike you will be highly disappointed with the Himalayan. I currently own one and am seriously regretting my decision to buy it. I’m not a speed and power guy but at certain times you need those characteristics especially in traffic or navigating specific terrain to ride safely and quite often this fails hard. If you live in an area where there is next to no traffic then perhaps you should consider this. I recommend a nice long test ride in the exact type of riding conditions you will be using it in.

[@davidpearce859]

Yes, lots of riding experience and no, I’m not drawn towards the Tenere700 however I did own the electric start 1986 Tenere 600 back in ‘86 and it remains one of those bikes that I look back on with great fondness.

Thought I'd let you people know. After the remaining 650s(scrambler, classic and bullet), 350 bobber and a few 450s, there will be a 750cc+ engine. It'll be the new flagship. Expect it in 3 years, most likely in an adventure tourer and/or a cruiser/bobber

I like them alot! Though, imo, slightly underpowered. I know there are possibilities out there, but with all that, the price level is Triumph Bonneville. Saying that, I would pick the RE Interceptor for the fun of making it lighter and more powerfull. Speaking of HD and their Nightster/Sportster. How on earth, can someone skilled as a designer, lean back, look at it and say "I did a nice job"? That left side is...well, if it said Ying-Yang on the tank, nobody would buy it. Back to the RE. I tried the RE Interceptor a few years ago and it runs better than the 45bhp tells you. I imagin that losing 20-30kgs and adding 20 horses would be a fun process! Thank you!

[@Wintersdark]

Royal Enfield: onenof my favourite manufacturers and one that'll probably be the most impactful onntye market in coming years... And one that makes bikes ill probably never buy. I like my go fast too much, loving on the canadian prairies. A RE would have to be a second (or later) bike and there's just too many other things I want more.

Theres something about Re design and the new bikes are packed, their research and development is amazing, marketing amazing. RE have really become bigger and better also price are affordable

[@shep68]

Small displacements makes them a no go for me. But good on em for selling all those bikes. If they get more people riding I’m all for it.

The video should have touched what actually revived Enfield from filling into bankruptcy: The 2008 UC engine. It modernized the 1940s British design that remained in production till 2008. In 2010 they launched Classic with the UC and that totally changed their fortunes overnight.

I've owned BMW'S for almost 50 years and now have a Classic 350 and a GT 650. My dealer sells both brands- lucky for me.!! Quality for an affordable price... 👍👍5🏍🙋‍♂️

There are a lot of people switching from BMW to RE in the comments. The Germans better watch out.

[@user-zi6ku3io2q]

RE is on a roll!

[@junsison8340]

Philippines is a good market for RE, Classic bigbikes 400cc and above are so welcome. 400 cc above is a must since Motorcycles below 400 cc is not allowed in the Tollways. Better bring them in, Hunter 411 or 450 is a must. I think a 411 would just be right so as not to make the Hunter 411 too expensive. Im waiting for the Hunter 411.

I bought a Scram. Lovely little bike. I will, however, be trading it for the new Himmy. I've got a taste for off road riding and the more off road bias of the Himmy along with the extra pep makes it a good decision for me.

I’d love to add the new Himalayan to the garage but then there’s the Interceptor and the Continental. But then what colour do you choose? Such beauty’s

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

RE seems to have a different colour for each day of the week.

[@itsallabouttheridekeepingi4449]

Love your channel mate ! , I have ridden the 650 Interceptor and 411 Himalayan and would DEFINITELY buy Indian of Chinese any day . I own a Moto Guzzi V85tt and Honda CRF 300 Rally , once I’ve killed the Rally 😂😂, may look at the new 450 Himalayan. Regards Paul from Australia

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

Thanks! That's a great garage of bikes for all occasions.

[@karlfonner7589]

You’ll be giving that rally to your grandkids😂😂

At 8:22 you start a spoken part that is so completely on point. It's one of the, if not THE most eloquent way to say harley absolutely does NOT care one bit about younger, new riders. The Al Bundy-esque shoe salesman of a ceo running the ship in Milwaukee ought to go back to sneakers or wicker baskets.

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

Yes, RE has the exact opposite approach to doing business.

NO ONE IS STOPPING THE ROYAL TRAIN🗣☝️💥💥💥💥

[@ItmeAno]

Royal enfield is not just a brand it a culture

[@corriecole4687]

I have a 2020 500 Bullet Trials Works Replica. I absolutely love it. It’s perfect for Tennessee backroads. Yes its not without its quirks ,but that’s part of its charm. It grunts up steep hills carting my big butt, like a mule. It’s so easy to work on and just is a great looking bike. I also have a 2017 Honda Africa Twin. It’s a beast to move around and a nightmare to work on. Unfortunately i do believe im going to sell me AT. It just doesn’t deliver the smiles per mile as my RE. I know they are vastly 2 completely different bikes, and the AT is a really capable bike off-road when setup correctly.

[@DifferentSpokesTV]

Funny how a simple bike can deliver the smiles.

[@greatbigeye2506]

The 99% blacked out Classic is super cool looking to me and has very comfortable ergos, put the 650 or a liquid cooled engine in it and I’d want one.

[@drew5337]

I got a 411 scram in January. Its a hoot, easy easy bike for me as a new rider. Im going to get her paid off quick so ill have the option to jump on a shotgun when they arrive here in the USA

[@androidnoobsyoutube1327]

I have meters 350 yellow. It was a amazing bike it heavy it not fast, just enough to go where I wanted. It built like a tank but it always trun head when I drive it around. Love her my buffy girl lol.
