I’ve had a 2023 Scram 411 since February and I’ve put just over 1700 miles on it in rural southwest Virginia on roads similar in nature to the ones in this video. Bottom line: Adam’s review is spot on! I love this bike for all the reasons he describes. If that kind of riding is your jam, you can’t go wrong with a Scram 411. My hat is off to Royal Enfield!
I just bought one today. I’m live in the WV panhandle but there are a lot of back farm roads to get everywhere I want to go. I would love to get it further into WV into the mountain roads.
The Royal Enfield Himaalyan(that's how it's pronounced in India) motorcycles has been a big success. You can find parts and mechanics in even the smallest Indian towns. The price you pay for them is higher than in India tough(2.500$ OTR in Punjab) so they maybe make much less sense in California than in rural India where Honda's Activa remains the king, so much so that most people call all scooters Activas....
@@16driver16 I'm considering KTM duke 390 3rd gen in India but everyone asking me why because they all think 200cc bike is enough while my parents are worrying that I'm going to race on it all the time. Drastic mindset difference
This is the most excited I feel that Adam has been in a few videos, that's awesome. I have a Scram and honestly at 5'6, I find her to be absolutely amazing with handling (even when I mess up, she's very forgiving). Great call out about the headlight and yes, I wish there was a little more top end for my longer trips but 50/55mph covers a lot of the country's roads
Don't forget, you can pop a 16T front sprocket on her to be more relaxed. Maybe for ultimate speed you might need 4th but it will get you a more relaxed ride (plus it can be swapped back to the standard 15T in minutes)
I've recently brought one of these motorcycles as a run around , I have other bike's but find this so much fun in a back to basics way. I do have other motorcycles including big capacity sport's bike's but in it's own way this is more fun. Highly recommended. Oh and when my ambition out stripped my talent and I crashed it on some muddy green lane hard!, it came out surprisingly ok. Try one, great fun 😊👍
I bought a Scram in this color scheme early this summer from GoMoto in Minneapolis and LOVE it! So balanced, nimble and versatile. Have ridden it in the big city, on the Interstate, on country roads (my favorite) and two track and it is sooo fun. Light enough to move around in the garage and turn around in tight places and yet heavy enough so that it doesn't get blown around by a passing truck. And it is strikingly good looking! Have gotten more compliments on it than any other bike I've owned. And it's been trouble free through the first thousand miles. Great dealership too!
@@ThirdMonarch Hi! Still loving the Scram. Yep for me it goes 70 easily. That is not my preferred riding but I certainly have tested it for many miles at that speed without issue. I only weigh about 160 and had maybe 20 pounds of gear strapped on. So if a person is bigger and the bike fully loaded, it might effect acceleration to 70. Not sure. But for the sheer joy of cycling around on a variety of road surfaces, this is such a great bike. I love riding side roads, gravel, dirt and paved and it handles all with ease with stock tires and equipment. It'd be perfect for the North Shore! Had it on a battery tender over the winter in an unheated garage. Turned the key this Spring and it was like it had been run all winter long. Raring to go - no muss or fuss. Highly recommend GoMoto and the Scram 411!
I have had my head in the sand on Royal Enfield for my entire life until the last year. I don't own one yet but I find their entire line interesting. Nice review Adam!
Where is the same old school traditionally styled model but with a water cooled 400cc twin that can also do freeway speeds? Seems to be a big gap in the ADV motorcycle marketplace linking old school styling with modern 400cc engine tech.😢 Kawasaki are you listening?
I rode a couple of RE's and the truth is they will probably only win the buck for bang contest. Nevertheless, I was really impressed with the quality for the asking price, much better than some of the Chinese offerings. One question though: what is Adam's height? He looks like a tall fellow.
Watched this a couple of moths back. Researched the bike and most reviewers are underwhelmed. So, .... I bought 1 ;-) because no other reviewer rode the wheels off it like you did. I could relate to what you were doing, my sort of a guy. I am over 65 now, so probs wont be able to hoon any more but I know the bike CAN do it Thanks a lot for that
Best Scram 411 review I have seen. I just bought one and Adam is 100% correct. I strongly recommend this bike. I had been off for 2 years and thanks to Royal Enfield I am back on the saddle, The price is the best feature
I really like this bike, but I have to say that you forgot about the older riders. I'm 72, and you might say that I'm experienced. I learned a few years ago that I'm not immortal, and this information kinda sobered me up a bit, you know? I'm not looking for a red line experience anymore and this kind of ride is really appealing. I hate freeway speed and in town traffic. Back roads, two lane blacktop and gravel is where I am inclined to ride these days and the Scram looks like a good tool for that sort of fun. I was disappointed to see that side stand hanging down like that though, wonder why it does that...?
Would be a lot cooler if it had like 40hp... I wonder if there's a Japanese liquid cooled engine that you could swap in relatively easily then put that old new RE engine on a museum shelf where it belongs
@@125modenasdinamik If it costs the same as in India then would you still say the same? It’s cheap transportation with enough power to keep up on the highways of India. It’s not made for you. You can buy a Kawasaki 400 if you want power. Understand the market this is for.

Hi @Malikot911, thanks for the note. Let us know how this experience goes and we'll see you on the road, track or trail.

At 6:00 "you'd be amazed at" leaning it to the left. I am amazed at how close the sidestand is to the pavement....hacksaw time 😂
Love this bike! Got one two months ago and done 1200miles already, enjoyed every minute of it.

I live north of Duluth and was curious how it would do on our roads, does it actually comfortably get to 70? how are you liking it now?!

Sat on one at my dealership then sat on a z650rs and the Kawi riding position felt so much more natural .

What I like is the fun factor.
RE make one of the best and cheapest bike out there. You dont even worry to drop it once in a while. Just a motorcycle that beg to be ridden haarrrdd
Think it like cheaper sv650. Very good for new rider that just want a ride and don't worry about anything else

I prefer your no-holds-barred reviews. This is a great bike but I would like to know about its shortcomings aside from the lack of LED lights.

Its called a Honda CL500 Scrambler😂
The Versys 300 can hang on the highway, it just screams while doing it.
It is called Triumph scrambler 400x
I enjoyed this review, thank you very much! I am deciding which model of Royal Enfield bike to get. I like the size and versatility of the Scram 411.

Great Motorcycle my friend have same colour RE 411 scram, I've ridden several times here in India.
so would a 6.2 fella be ok on this or... pass?
what is the miles per gallon?
No frills bike, simple to ride, great fun to zip around the coastal Peninsula and country back roads in my region.
Owner of a 600 race replica, this would be a GREAT second bike!
Great Video, Best Scram 411 review, I like this sturdy motorcycle, which is easy to maintain and certainly reliable, at a very attractive price

If you have been to England lately, you should notice every other person looks suspiciously a person from India :D

I like the jacket the helmet , where do we get all the gears !
I don't like the ordinary headlights
Thanks for a thorough review.
Make it a 750cc twin liquid cooled.
Good review of a bike I admire.
Motorcycles are the future❤
As of this month I have just over 4,000 miles on it. It's an amazing bike for my first motorcycle. Very happy with it!
What is the bike's mileage...?
gas mileage? I haven't checked in a bit but I was regularly getting 55-60 miles per gallon :) when I checked last @@bharathg2259
Heavy
The name just seems odd to me. To close to being called a scam. I don't know why they didn't just call it Scrambler 411.
Cause, that's what it is. . A scam 😂
