I had a 2016 Indian Scout Sixty that I loved but had to surrender due to financial trouble at the time. The new Indian Scout Sixty came out and I wanted one so bad I could taste it. Since I found the RE Shotgun, I have completely forgotten about the Indian. Haha. Great video man, appreciate you posting!
Yeah, the Shotgun is a ripper. They really hit the nail on the head with this one. Check my video on The new Bear 650 it's another cool Bike by Royal Enfield. Regards FPPete.
Out of all the RE models, this is the one that really appeals to me. If I got one, I'd spend another $1k and do a belt drive conversion. And I'd put on some luggage.
@@FULLPELTAdventures I heard a rumour that there will be a 650 Classic, a 650 Bullet and a 650 Scrambler in due course. If that was the case, I'd pick a Classic sight unseen, then it would be interesting to compare the Shotgun with the Bullet. Did I mention that I prefer a 650 Classic?
Hi Steven, Yeah it's a great Dealership, very friendly. Test ride a few of the Royal Enfield bikes, to see if they are the bike for you. the 650's are reliable bikes, and the new Himalayan 450 is worth a look if you want to do some offroad stuff. Regards FPPete.
Thanks Will, Yeah mate cannons or pea shooters, I think some aftermarket Barrels would really make it a formidable weapon in the Royal Enfield arsenal. LOL. Regards FPPete.
Thanks for this great review. You said something important, that It´s not a fast bike so helps you stay on the safer side. It gives you the power and speed you need to commute, move around town and have a pleasant ride on the open road. --- Enjoyed it thoroughly!!
Great review, thank. BTW your fuel consumption calc was wrong as when you first filled up it was on the side stand, and it can take more fuel when its level i.e. on center stand.
Thats great feedback for EMAM. I will tell Noel. I am very appreciative that Noel is kind enough to allow me to test ride and video his new arrivals. Yes it sure is a great Dealership. Regards FPPete.
I was goimg to buy one until I see there only available with the non chrome spoked rims, black frame, black engine, black gearbox and black exhaust. I was hoping they'd be like my black and cream 2020 Classic 500.
Hi, I would go the Shotgun. However the new Guerrilla 450 sure looks like a great choice as well. If you can test ride any of the bikes, that may help you with your decision. Good luck with your choice. Regards FPPete.
Ha Ha, the Calder 4x4, love it. I thought the rear suspension was very hard and it was set on the 2nd softest pre-load setting. So maybe some quality rear shocks would transform the rear end. The front forks worked well in my opinion. Regards FPPete.
I think RE has hit the sweet spot with the shotgun. 👍
Yeah I agree. It's a great looking bike, A little heavy, but otherwise it ticks the boxes. Regards FPPete.
Very enjoyable Pete! I reckon the RE Shot Gun was in it's sweet spot, and so were you! It's built like a tank! 👍👏😁
Thanks heaps mate, it sure is a nice bike/tank. Regards FPPete.

I really want this one as my first bike. The plasma blue is my favorite color scheme 💙
The Plasma Blue would be my first pick. regards FPPete.

Thanks J-L, The ShotGun sure is a Cool looking Bike, with a sweet engine. Modifying this bike sure is appealing. Regards FPPete.

Great to see the old Raceway Suzuki shop not far from here. I really like this hike and may just have to have a look. Great stuff.👍🇦🇺

Beautiful machine, beautiful sound, beautiful country ... Shotgun 650 its really built like a gun.. enjoy the long rides mate 😊😊😇👍
It was a joy to ride for sure.
I got a CB1100 and I’ve just acquired this little beauty what fun.
Fantastic. The Shotgun is a good looking Cruiser, that you can chill out on. Then grab the CB1100 for all your speed needs. Regards FPPete.
Nice looking bike Pete, a lot of bang for your buck, but those cannons look dreadful 😉 . Cheers mate 🍻

They look 'period' correct - even though it's a mix of old and modern

Hi Joe, Thanks Heaps for your comment, really appreciated. Regards FPPete.
Great review, thank. BTW your fuel consumption calc was wrong as when you first filled up it was on the side stand, and it can take more fuel when its level i.e. on center stand.
Thanks Mark, Glad you liked the review. Yeah the fuel usage wasn't perfect but it gives you an idea of how much the Shotgun drinks. Regards FPPete.
Nice looking road bike! Thanks for the first impressions (and the scenic ride!).
Yeah it's looks will sure help sell the Bike. It should be a nice reliable Cruiser/Bobber. Regards FPPete.
Love the people at EMAM, bought my classic 350 & get it serviced there 🤟
Thats great feedback for EMAM. I will tell Noel. I am very appreciative that Noel is kind enough to allow me to test ride and video his new arrivals. Yes it sure is a great Dealership. Regards FPPete.
That fuel mileage will get better when it loosens up mate, great vid yet again 👌
Thanks heaps, glad you enjoyed the vid. The bike is pretty good for what it's designed to do. Regards FPPete.

You never know with Royal Enfield, they may just change things later to keep interest in the bike. Regards FPPete.
Hello! Should I buy Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 or Royal Enfield Classic 350 should you help me with this?
Hi, I would go the Shotgun. However the new Guerrilla 450 sure looks like a great choice as well. If you can test ride any of the bikes, that may help you with your decision. Good luck with your choice. Regards FPPete.
How did the suspension deal with the bumps one the Calder 4x4 track?
Ha Ha, the Calder 4x4, love it. I thought the rear suspension was very hard and it was set on the 2nd softest pre-load setting. So maybe some quality rear shocks would transform the rear end. The front forks worked well in my opinion. Regards FPPete.
Noticed didn't have to pull clutch in to start bad luck if in gear 😮
I would think a switch that senses if the bike is in gear or neutral would govern if you can start the bike. If not, as you said. Regards FPPete.
Nice waiting for the mt though
I can't wait to ride the MT, sure is going to be a popular bike. Regards FPPete.
So Pete, it is legal to own a Shotgun in Australia?
Ha Ha, It appears so. World first, you only need a motorcycle license to own a shotgun, and use it as you please. Great comment Bill.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You need to rev it more. Over five grand they start to move.....
Thanks for that. My bike didn't have a Tacho, so I couldn't tell the rev's. The engine is sweet and does a great job. Regards FPPete.
Nice first ride bro. Enjoyed it. They nailed the styling on this one. Rode it. Can check my ride. Take care. Got my full watch and like. Cheers.
Thanks heaps RRR. RE have done a great job of creating another cool Bike using their 650 engine. Regards FPPete.
@@FULLPELTAdventures I agree bro. Cheers. :)
Off road video please
Ha Ha, I won't be riding this cruiser off road. For a start, the rear suspension would need to be way softer to do that. Regards FPPete.
