Royal Enfield Classic 650: Buyer Regrets Purchase After 10 Days
A motorcycle enthusiast quickly regretted buying a Royal Enfield Classic 650.
Excited by its classic look, the buyer, used to more premium bikes, didn't test ride it.
After 10 days and 200km, he decided to sell it, disappointed by the weight, lack of the classic Enfield sound, and feeling it strained at higher speeds.
While he liked the engine's smoothness, he realized the bike wasn't what he expected, attributing the issue to his own preferences, not the bike's faults.
A TeamBHP forum member bought a Royal Enfield Classic 650 but is selling it after 10 days.
The buyer was initially drawn to the bike's retro design, reminiscent of the Royal Enfield Electra.
The buyer, an experienced biker, regretted not test-riding the Classic 650 before purchasing it.
He found the bike's heavy weight and lack of traditional exhaust note disappointing.
Despite appreciating the engine's refinement, he felt the bike strained at speeds over 100 kmph.
