We had a demo day on Nov 4th here in San Diego and afterwards I put a deposit on the Astral Green and God willing it should arrive either late Dec or early January. 😎
For a taller person this bike is very comfortable with the forward foot controls. I was impressed with my demo ride of it. The price point is spot on if the Dealers don’t upcharge them out of reach. IMHO not fair to compare R.E. with Triumph. Triumph is at a higher level with a matching price point to boot.
Same engine as the 650INT/Continental GT with another 65-70 pounds to lug around, most of the Triumphs including the Speed Twin 1200 weigh less; this 535 pound slug has already exhibited brake problems...keep selling those Triumphs
@@artiecisneros4691 in the eastern U.S. the SM650 is $8,000 OTD and the Speed Twin 900 is less than $10,000 OTD (a few at dealers for $7,999 + fees); you'll pay 80 percent of the Triumph for maybe 2/3rds as much machine, the Bonneville holds its value better...64hp/69mpg/476 lbs. looks better when you sell it.

Nice reaction! I am using royal Enfield from last 20 years and its awesome raw motorcycle!
Bad video 😂
