I bought the Bear 650 after a 15 minute test ride. Have been riding it all over Kashmir and Ladakh and it’s beyond brilliant. Even the stiff suspension fades away with the sheer joy of riding this bike in the mountains. Brilliant

I am from New Zealand. I have a number of motorcycles but i purchased a new Royal Enfield Continental GT650. This is one of the nicest bikes that i own . I have BMW and a Vincent Black Shadow to name a few but my every day go to is the Enfield. The engineering is superb as is the build quality. I regularly ride from Taupo where i live to Wellington on the Enfield as it is such a joy to ride. I am over seventy, a qualified engineer so i do all of my own maintenance and repairs if or when required. It is a wonderful machine and would not hesitate to buy another.

I’m in the States. I just left my Africa Twin 1100 in the garage and took my Bear 650 on a 2,000 mile ride from Pennsylvania to Georgia during a ridiculous 100 degree plus heat wave. The Bear handled it all with zero issues. <br><br>It’s one of the best bikes I’ve ever owned.

I bought a Royal Enfield Classic 650 last year. I've already travelled 17,000 km and I'm very satisfied. When the engine is sufficiently "hot" it looks like a Swiss watch with its sound. Pure music. You seem hypnotised and captivated by the emotion that this bike gives you. And not only this engine. Even the Himalayan with its 450cc single-cylinder. Thank you for your videos and for the lessons and suggestions you give us. You're really GREAT. Keep it up

Just bought a SM six weeks ago. May I say your videos played a certain role... <br>It is my reentry in motorcycling after 30 years and I love it so so much. Stayed away from the big american twins due to their power and weight and do not miss a thing. Just pure old school riding, gives me a smile on every tour. Did everything right!

Shotgun owner, best motorcycling decision I’ve made in over 20 yrs of riding, great engine, looks great, handles with confidence, real world machine - and so affordable. What motorcycle should be. I certainly don’t miss being boiled alive in slow traffic by the more powerful over priced bikes I used to own.
