      The RE is a great bargain, no doubt, but Harley as a brand has never been about bargains. They are solid, heavy, torquey bikes. The RE has one of those, and its heavy. If you actually get off an RE and onto a Harley and think there is no difference in how they feel, both material and engine, you've got a neurological condition.
      IE, you can't manufacture an HD for a bargain, it won't feel or be like an HD...

    I really wanted one of these when the concept was first unveiled. However it sounded like it wasn't going to be a reality and when the Super Meteor came out, I jumped on it! Now the Shotgun is official, it's not quite as nice as the concept and not different enough to change from my SM, but if I didn't have the SM I would definitely consider this. I love RE, on my 3rd one and tempted to add the new himmy next to the SM.

  • @Ciganyfiu
    @Ciganyfiu 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    Great bike, just like the SM. My biggest gripe with RE is the lack of accessories. My Super Meteor has been out for over a year now, I upgraded from an Interceptor mostly to go on longer trips with the advertised panniers. Still no panniers in sight and no one can even give a straight answer as to when they might become available. To RE: if you advertise something and list it in your accessories catalogue, please make it available!

  • @MadChalet
    @MadChalet 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Sounds like a very nice bike, though I don't imagine I'll ever own a cruiser. Gotta comment though: 'no compromises' when the front brake is so-so? Even Harley came to the conclusion that a decent front brake is essential (after decades of back brake emphasis).

    • @ArvindKumar-xm3tl
      @ArvindKumar-xm3tl 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The front brake on this one is good. I have ridden Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 which has same front brake and similar weight. For comparison it's much better than Harley Street 750's front brake. Of course, not as good as Street Rod 750's front brake because it has twin disks.

    This has to the final step before they launch the classic 650.the super meteor was 1st but with it's last minute thought of hotch potch forward controls set up you knew something mid control was coming soon, this in my opinion is basically a test mule, using up all the parts from the S.M,then it's classic 650 time.

    Does it still need a service every 2,500 miles or 6 months like many new Royal Enfields?

    @varmastiko2908 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    That's a good review. However, since you guys are well respected motorcycle journalists, it would be a good gesture to use the word 'quality' in its proper meaning. What you were talking about at around 2 minutes mark is 'perceived quality', or perhaps a 'sense of build quality'. If you simply say 'quality' the implication is that you have done a rigorous long term test on the bike to see how durable it is. 'Quality' means something that lasts while 'perceived quality' or 'sense of quality' means a feel you get just by looking at the bike, implying that it will indeed prove to be of high quality once you get to live with the bike. Thanks for a good review, guys!

    You can not get a workshop manual or parts book. Accessories! I have been waiting over 6 months for the touring handlebars for my SM 650. Wish I had bought a Honda.

    Only a 2,500 mile service interval from what i heard .That's a bit low , if you are using it all year that's 2 services a year .Unless you do it yourself that is .
    Not too sure of the looks though on this one .

    Put a deposit for 350 Classic. Already have faster bikes VFR800 Honda 750 Vulcan 1500 but need something light and fun and to me 350 does it.I am sure this is a great bike for most people but I would prefer higher displacement.
