Is the Royal Enfield Classic 500 worth a buy in 2025?

A few years back the Classic 500 was discontinued, but it still has its fanbase. There’s a faction that swears by its raw power and classic thumper feel, while other riders prefer the more modern feel of the smoother 350cc models. Potential buyers are torn between their nostalgia and practicality with used 500s still available in the market. There’s the complaint about the vibrations at higher speeds, but it’s hard to find torque and character like the 500cc engine. A discontinued model also deals with maintenance and parts availability. Is the Classic 500 the Royal Enfield hidden gem that enthusiasts love, or should one stick with the newer, more refined stuff?
