Royal Enfield Bear 650

Royal Enfield increases prices across its 650cc lineup after GST 2.0 moves motorcycles above 350cc into a 40% tax bracket. Models including the Super Meteor 650, Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 see hikes ranging from Rs 22,500 to Rs 30,000 depending on variant. The motorcycles remain mechanically unchanged and continue with the 648cc parallel-twin engine.

Royal Enfield trademarks the name Interceptor BEAR 650, likely for an upcoming 650cc scrambler based on the Interceptor 650 platform. The motorcycle is expected to feature spoked wheels, USD forks, revised suspension and off-road-focused components while retaining the 648cc parallel-twin engine producing around 47 bhp and 52 Nm. The new model expands the brand’s 650cc lineup.
