Which Royal Enfield Motorcycle is BEST to Get?

[@elrickarza]

I’ve had a RE classic 350 for 6 months now and love it. I think for a “city bike” it’s better than the meteor because of the riding position and I feel it handles better. Also it sits a little higher giving a little better visibility. Plus better looking , lots of comments😎

[@samuelstambaugh5181]

I live in hilly country with spaghetti roads! I must agree with you

[@stevelovescars]

Yeah, the Classic 350 is the one I would pick for that use. I am not a fan of the feet-forward seating position, personally, and I think the classic oooks better.

@Avinash I would say it's a great beginner bike. I actually took the second half of my endorsement test with it and it was fun and nimble. Great at low speed stuff, easy friction zone. There was another guy there with a Scram as well.

My Continental GT is my first bike. Love it! Living in semi-rural America I need the bigger power plant, but it's controls are forgiving, throttle is easy to manage, it's built like a tank, and it isn't going to yeet you over the handlebars if you make a mistake. It is heavy at 450 lbs so it doesn't feel all that nimble, but that's OK. The engine has a nice healthy thrum, there's lots of aftermarket part support. I'm excited about the meteor 650 and a more beefy street oriented Himalayan. Uh oh ... lol.

I have two bikes, a GSXR 750 and a Royal Enfield INT 650. I bought the RE about eight months ago and absolutely love it. It has turned into my go-to bike for almost every occasion. What sold me was a video I watched of Royal Enfield's CEO talking about the entire executive team has to ride motorcycles- what a great culture! This thing was built by riders for riders. The upright riding position and rippy exhaust note from the S&S pipes make this bike very livable while having loads of soul. I love my GSXR and only ride it when I have the need to run around at a buck-twenty +. However, four out of five times I go out the garage and jump on a bike, it's my Royal Enfield INT 650.

[@philliplangolf5723]

Great video. I bought a meteor 350 for my first bike here in the U.S. and I love it. It’s definitely not fast compared to many other bikes.

And it’s not a Harley, or a Harley clone 😂 I’m definitely looking foreword to the Super Meteor coming to the states for my next bike

When I got my Meteor 350, my neighbor liked it so much that he got one a short time later. Oh and BTW, the Meteor doesn't need a 6th gear, and I doubt that it could really use it anyway, given its modes power output. While you don't want to take the Meteor out on the super slab for extended periods, it can make short runs on it. That said, the Meteor 350 do a good job pretty much everywhere else.

I love Triumph and Harley and I don’t own a RE. That being said i think a lot more people living in the west would pick up motorcycling because of RE because it doesn’t force you to trade beginner friendliness for coolness unlike manufacturers of bigger bikes. Also people starting on a 350 or 500 with modest horsepower will get the time and safety net to grow into better riders than people starting on 650 cc or 1000cc which get unmanageable for beginners

I bought a Meteor 350 as my first motorcycle a bit more than a month ago and I love it. For context, I live in the Swiss Alps, I don't use it on the highway even though I tehnially could because I just want to enjoy a smooth ride. I also use it as my daily work vehicul when Ican and it works its way up the mountain without any problem contrary to what I've seen people say online. I've always wanted a cruiser style motorcycle (thanks to Paul's in the intro for Tekken 2) so as a beginner motorcycle it was the perfect choice imo. I love how it feels, I love the look and I love the sound.

[@ErelasInglor]

Surprised you didn't go into any detail about the incoming Hunters...have you ever rode one? I got myself a Scram 411, I was originally going to get a Svartpilen but couldn't find any, ends up, I love the Scram. While not meant for interstates it's absolutely fantastic on gravel and back highways going between towns, work, etc. Super fun and practical!

[@SO2011BR]

I remember not long ago how you were saying a 1K sportbike is foolish to have on the street. I've been riding my entire life and put more miles on a 1K sport bike on the street than any average motorcyclist I've met. I never felt it was excessive, but yeah....kinda was. Through some life events, I ended up with an RE 650 GT. I have to say, the fun factor on this bike easily surpasses the majority of bikes I've owned. I think the best part is I can ride it like it's supposed to be ridden without committing a felony. As a life long motorcyclist I can easily say this bike is just a great bike regardless of your experience level. I wouldn't take it to the track, but we're talking about public roads. Oh, and the accessories and options go on and on. Thanks for another great video and for giving the RE a chance.

Little late to the party. I got an int 650 for about 2.5 years now . From what i have experienced , its meant for bikers who want to cover distances in no hurry . Comfortable , power available when you want it , pretty fast and full of character . It was meant to sail the roads and get you to places which you thought were too far away. A good cruiser-roadster.

[@johnjay6370]

I Went from a MT-03 to a INT-650 and it was an amazing jump! The Mt-03 was quick, and well made, but the INT-650 is just a better bike all around. The MT-03 is faster in the short 0-60, but the INT-650 just rides better, feels better, and cruises better on the highway. On the highway the mt-03 was "OK" but once you are going 70 it lost its pull, it could go faster, but it was a slow acceleration. The Int-650 might be slower in the 0-60, but has way more acceleration on the highway. It feels sooo much better too on the highway.

I'm not a fan of the other Royal Enfields even being from India, where it's filled with them but I ride a little aggressively so I was thinking with going with the RC390 cause it falls in the same budget bracket but after using my 650 for daily driving I don't regret my decision at all. One tip though get a puncture repellent lube for both bikes or go with the meteor 350's tyre for the rear from the beginning or be ready to get cramps in your legs when this thing punctures

Just got back from Bangalore India. People in the US have no clue how congested things can be and there's a reason smaller bikes rule the land (and HD totally failed to gain traction in India).

Interesting that you specifically refer to the Netherlands in the beginning. Just for your understanding, in the Netherlands the majority of bikers would not consider a bike under 500 cc to be worthy for the highways. Somehow, people (unjustly) got it in their head that you would need a 600-1,200+ cc bike for that. And although the Netherlands is small, we have (one of the) most dense and well maintained road infrastructure of Europe (next to the highest density of both urbanism and agriculture). Other bikers would frown, if you would take the Enfield Classic 350 or Benelli Imperiale 400 on highway rides (also for commuting). Although, I love those bikes, there is actually something to say for the Continental 650. It's nice to have a bit more power to quickly get out of the way of inattentive car drivers.
