Royal Enfield Classic 650

Pros & Cons of Royal Enfield Classic 650

• What we admire in this bike

  • The familiar retro design will appeal to customers.
  • The twin pea-shooter exhaust pipes give the bike a more ‘complete’ look.
  • The Vallam Red paint scheme, along with oodles of chrome looks and feels premium.
  • The 648cc engine comes with the same linear acceleration, precise fueling and widespread torque.
  • It gets a removable rear seat.

• What could have been better

  • Not many connectivity features on offer.
  • Sharing its sub-frame with the Shotgun 650, the ride quality is likely to be on the stiffer side.
  • The 243kg kerb weight makes it the heaviest RE motorcycle yet.

The design is typically retro and it looks premium, just as a bigger bike should. 9

• The Classic 650 looks familiar, but it is instantly recognizable as a Classic in a slightly bigger package. It retains the teardrop shaped fuel tank, the round LED headlight flanked by pilot lamps on either side. However, the twin pea-shooter exhaust pipes make the bike look complete.

 

• There are four colour schemes on offer; Vallam Red, Bruntingthorpe Blue, Teal, and Black Chrome. While the first two are fairly new additions, the latter two have been seen on its predecessor, the Classic 500. This DNA is further reinforced by the removable pillion seat; another trait of the original Classic 500 shown back in 2013.

This is the fifth motorcycle to be based on the proven 650 platform. 8.5

• The Classic 650 is powered by the same 648cc, twin-cylinder powertrain paired to a 6-speed gearbox with a slip-and-assist clutch. Like with most bikes on this platform, this powertrain continues to produce 46.3bhp at 7250rpm and 52.3Nm of torque at 5650rpm. We can expect the familiar linear acceleration with precise fueling and a good spread of torque all around. 
• The Classic 650 is built on a tubular steel spine frame, and it shares its rear sub-frame with the Shotgun 650. It makes use of 43mm conventional telescopic forks and twin shock absorbers, with 120mm and 90mm of travel respectively. The 800mm seat height should make it fairly accessible, but with a kerb weight of 243kg, the Classic 650 is the heaviest RE motorcycle yet.
• For braking, it makes use of a 320mm front disc with a dual-piston floating calliper, along with a 300mm rear disc, also with a dual-piston floating calliper.

Classic 650 engine specifications:

Engine Displacement	647.95 cc
Top Speed	157 kmph
Power	46.3bhp @ 7250 rpm
Torque	52.3 Nm @ 5650 rpm

Royal Enfield has kept the Classic 650 fairly simple in terms of frills and features. 8.5

• The Classic 650 keeps things simple, and Royal Enfield has taken a conscious decision to not over-load the bike with too many features. It keeps things just right, with the analogue speedometer and a digital fuel display, along with a tripper navigation pod. Some other things include dual-channel ABS, a USB port, a slip-and-assist clutch, and a removable rear seat.
