Re: Royal Enfield 650cc Cruiser concept spied

So the new 650 seems to be built on the Meteor platform. Meteor 650 perhaps?



Cheers!

The one with the chrome exhaust is the cruiser, but the one with black exhausts looks like the Classic 650 spied earlier.
Considering the other spy shots for the upcoming models - Classic 350, Hunter 350; RE will probably launch those first and then bring out these 650s at the Rider Mania later this year.

Re: Royal Enfield 650cc Cruiser concept spied

I lost the count on how many times this bike is spied without any direction on the actual date of launch. Given that the petrol is now almost hitting a century (already hit in some parts of the country), people are slowly moving towards the EVs. Also there are some very cool fan generated designs online, hope this bike comes in models like roadster and touring. Also hoping this bike puts on more weight to bring in the feel safe factor on high speeds. So better hurry up RE.

Two prominent things catch my eye;

1. The footpegs are surely more forward set than those on the Meteor.
2. USD shocks for the front.

Re: Royal Enfield 650cc Cruiser concept spied

If the classic model comes out, it would fix some of the most discussed shortcomings for Interceptor. Alloy wheels, pillion foot rest, length of the pillion seat, exhaust going slightly upwards and USD shocks. Not sure what the headlights would be like. Hopefully it should be better than Interceptor. The front forks looks bigger giving it a bigger bike feel. The chrome is totally missing which should be added to highlight the shape and design elements. This may be a test version but I am sure the final color and chrome combinations would be better than the test version. RE has started realizing that there are lot of people who appreciate color.

The new 650cc spotted again, this time from the vantage point of an interceptor rider.

Royal Enfield has confirmed participation at the EICMA 2021, which is scheduled for 25th - 28th November 2021.
I think they will reveal the bikes at EICMA and if the situation is better here, maybe have them at Rider Mania as well.

Catchy name indeed, but at first the name reminded me of the erstwhile Shogun which was sold by Suzuki back in the day.

Re: Royal Enfield 650cc Cruiser concept spied

Spotted this again today on ECR (East Coast Road) in Chennai.

I normally see all of them together (Next Gen Classic 350, Classic 650 and Cruiser 650) but this time, it was just the Cruiser 650.

This image makes me curious as to how the chassis has been managed. The rear half looks like a standard thunderbird/classic kind of sub-frame.
However the engine mount and front half looks like the interceptor chassis.

Re: Royal Enfield 650cc Cruiser concept spied

Looking forward to see what bike builders of the country manage to pull off with this platform. I held off on the Interceptor because I'm tired of scrambler builds, but a nice bobber/chopper build with this would look NICE.
