Is the Flying Flea C6 a practical everyday urban commuter?

It could be great for short commutes, I think. The smaller size should make it easy to work though traffic and get into tight parking situations. And as an electric, there are no emissions for the eco conscious city dweller. The real test will be range and the charging infrastructure.

The design of the Flying Flea C6: Does it compromise performance for style?

It's not so simple, I don't think. In fact, the unique design could actually enhance some parts of performance, such as aerodynamics. The compact frame would also make it super agile in city traffic, plus. It's not until people get to test ride it that we'll know for sure.

Can Royal Enfield take a bite out of a new, younger market with the Flying Flea C6?

It’s a gamble, but maybe it’ll work. Pricing and performance will be the key. If they can keep that unique RE character, and make it affordable and practical for urban youth, they might just crack the younger market. They will, however, need to support this with a great social media presence and influencer partnerships.

Is the Flying Flea C6 a homage to its WWII predecessor in name only, or does it pay homage to that model in spirit as well?

It was definitely more of a spiritual successor than being a direct replica. The original Flying Flea was a utility and compact airplane for military use. Clearly this is a new one designed for the urban commuter market. I think that’s fine, they are modernising the concept for current needs and keeping some design nods to the original.

Will traditional Royal Enfield fans like the unique Flying Flea C6 design?

No way. There’s nothing traditional RE fans love more than the classic look, and the thumping engine sound. A lot of die hard fans are going to be alienated by this electric thing with its weird frame. They’re like they’re trying to be something they aren’t.

Tuesday, 07 January 2025 07:05 AM Royal Enfield is set to introduce the Flying Flea electric motorcycle brand at CES 2025, highlighting its partnerships with Qualcomm and NDX to incorporate advanced technology. This move underscores Royal Enfields commitment to innovation in the EV sector. I think this partnership will significantly enhance the performance and features of the Flying Flea.

Sunday, 10 November 2024 04:17 PM The Flying Flea C6 is expected to offer performance comparable to a 250-300cc motorcycle, balancing range and battery size to keep the weight manageable.

Discussions and Questions Royal Enfield Flying Flea

Will riders appreciate the 200,000+ ride modes the Flying Flea S6 offers, or will they be inundated with choices?

09 January 2025 10:32

And if they have presets for rain, highway, city, etc, and let you tweak from there, it'll be great. Otherwise, it could be too much.

In real world riding, how will the Flying Flea S6's performance compare to other traditional ICE scramblers?

09 January 2025 10:32

I think it will smoke ICE bikes in the city. Instant torque for the win! In terms of traditional bikes though, they might still have the advantage on long stretches of highway or long off road sessions.

And does the Flying Flea S6's girder fork suspension really make a difference to the ride?

09 January 2025 10:32

The girder fork is actually pretty cool, I think. The S6 has a unique look and probably handles bumps better than standard forks. It might not be the easiest to get used to but it'd be fun!

Will the Flying Flea S6's scrambler styling make it off road, or is it all for show?

09 January 2025 10:32

I can bet that it'll do just fine on gravel roads and light trails. It won’t be a hardcore dirt bike, but that’s not what scramblers are about anyway.

Will the Flying Flea S6's chain drive affect the electric riding experience differently than hub motors?

09 January 2025 10:32

The disadvantage to chain drive is that there are more moving parts to maintain, but the advantage is it’s easier to repair if something goes wrong. Try fixing a hub motor yourself!
