In real world riding, how will the Royal Enfield Roadster 650 perform compared to its 650cc siblings?
Each of the models in Royal Enfield’s 650cc lineup are intended for slightly different riding styles and tastes. The relaxed ergonomics and all round usability of the Interceptor 650, and the Continental GT 650’s cafe racer with a sportier stance. The Super Meteor 650 puts the engine into cruiser territory. With the Roadster 650 on its way, there’s now interest in how it will stand apart in the real world. Despite all those bikes having the same basic 648cc parallel twin engine, weight distribution, ergonomics, gearing and suspension setup can make a huge difference in the ride. However, the Roadster is anticipated to have a more upright position than the Continental GT, and perhaps a bit sportier than the Interceptor. This begs the question: how will it perform in different situations — will it be more agile in city traffic? Compared to its siblings, how will it fare on twisty roads? Will its ergonomics, potentially different, affect its highway cruising? Riders are also curious whether Royal Enfield would pull out the engine mapping or gearing to give the Roadster its own persona within the 650 family.
I suspect the Roadster will be the best all rounder of the bunch. More comfortable than the GT for daily use, and sportier than the Interceptor for some weekend fun. It may just be the Goldilocks bike in RE’s 650 lineup.
