The bikes design was unique and appealing, although it may not have been to everyones taste.

Our take on this /// Verdict
The Eider Police 650 is a bike that garnered significant attention but ultimately fell short of expectations due to various issues. From my perspective, the bikes design and specifications were promising, with features like front and rear disc brakes with ABS, which is a significant safety feature. However, the companys reputation was marred by allegations of fraud, leading to the arrest of its chairman. This severe setback erodes trust and makes it difficult to recommend the bike to potential buyers. Despite its potential, the Eider Police 650s future and support are uncertain, making it a risky purchase.
Price
The Eider Police 650 was launched in India with an ex-showroom price of around 3.37 lakhs. However, given the current status of the company, its challenging to provide accurate on-road prices or any updates on pricing. Typically, on-road prices would include additional costs such as registration, insurance, and other local taxes, which could add another 50,000 to 70,000 to the ex-showroom price. But with the companys operations in question, buyers should be cautious and verify the availability and pricing from authorized dealers or other reliable sources.

Update 1
Eider Motors, a Hyderabad-based motorcycle company, was embroiled in a major scandal when its chairman, Maroju Shiva Kumar, was arrested in September 2016. The arrest was due to allegations of cheating dealers out of large sums of money. This incident severely damaged the companys reputation and raised questions about the viability of its products, including the Eider Police 650. I believe this scandal likely had a significant impact on consumer trust in the brand.

Update 3
The Eider Police 650, along with other models from Eider Motors, was marketed as a robust and reliable option for Indian consumers. However, the lack of subsequent updates and the companys legal troubles suggest that the model may not have received the support and development it needed. I believe that without ongoing improvements and a strong brand reputation, the Eider Police 650s market appeal would have been limited.

Update 4
Before the scandal, Eider Motors had established dealerships in various cities, including Chennai, indicating a promising start for the company. However, the arrest of the chairman and the subsequent fraud allegations led to a collapse in dealer and consumer confidence. I think this rapid decline highlights the importance of ethical business practices in maintaining market trust.

Update 5
The design and technology of the Eider Police 650 were intended to appeal to a segment of the market looking for durable and affordable motorcycles. Despite these intentions, the companys failure to deliver on its commitments and the legal issues surrounding it meant that the bike never gained significant traction. I believe that a stronger focus on transparency and customer satisfaction could have changed the outcome for Eider Motors.

Update 2
In 2014, Eider Motors unveiled six new two-wheelers, including the Eider Police 650, as part of its expansion plans. The launch was seen as an ambitious move by the company to gain a foothold in the competitive Indian motorcycle market. However, the subsequent arrest of the chairman and allegations of fraud cast a shadow over these new models. I think the companys inability to follow through on its promises was a major setback for these bikes.
Mileage
Tuesday, 19 November 2024 09:28 AM
The mileage of the Eider Police 650 is not well-documented due to the limited time it was in the market and the lack of reliable user reviews. Generally, a 650cc bike can offer around 20-25 kml in city conditions and up to 30 kml on highways, depending on riding conditions and maintenance. However, without concrete data, its hard to provide a precise estimate. Potential buyers should consider this uncertainty when evaluating the bikes running costs.
