The motorcycle market is on fire right now. Or would be in a few months when Royal Enfield brings in their retro-styled 650 twins in the market. With avid marketing and the machismo character of the Royal Enfield motorcycles, there is a special place for them in the Indian motorcycling scene right now.
If you are planning to buy a Royal Enfield, here are top ten reasons to buy one:
Torquey torquey love
I can almost feel the approval of RE enthusiasts on the word torque. Yes, the Royal Enfield motorcycles have a decent amount of low and high-end torque to conquer almost every terrain, except sand maybe.
Stable AF
Of course, the Royal Enfield is one of the most planted motorcycles around. No amount of wind speeds hitting an RE rider is enough to sway it around. Considering almost every RE motorcycle weighs in at above 190 kilos, wet, with the rider weighing at an average 78 kilos, the motorcycles stay planted on the road easily.
Ride Quality
The Royal Enfield is easier to ride, and with leather-bound seats, the motorcycle is sometimes a sofa on wheels, provided you don't go all Rossi. It is no wonder the cruiser is one of the most sought-after motorcycles in the world. Couple that with a low-end torque which means changing gears not very often which equals happy rider and pillion.
One for all, all for one
Until some time ago, the Royal Enfield used to be an acquired taste. But with the advent of new features like electric start, the Royal Enfield is not a far-off thought. Everyone can ride an RE now. The process of riding a Royal Enfield has become much easier thanks to new technology.
Road presence
The road presence is simply astounding. No, we are not kidding. The resounding thump from the Indori Botal exhaust tail-pipe on an empty road during a lazy morning makes up for a picturesque dream for any Royal Enfield enthusiast. No
matter which model you go for, a Royal Enfield will always attract attention.
Also, its retro looks. Yes! A Royal Enfield gets that old-world charm with its retro-styled looks and a thumpy single-cylinder motor to boot. With its curvaceous nature, chrome fittings, hand-painted fuel tank, the Royal Enfield is in every sense of the word, retro.
