Hey man!! Glad to see you ride side by side to the ducati. I’m looking to purchase my first bike ever and the ducati has been on my mind for months now. I found a used one locally, with 800 miles on it for $9k. I love the look of this bike. Also love that it has 800cc motor. But I been doing a lot of research and ran into the Royal and Moto guzzi v7. I love the way both these bikes look. I’m a 44 year old man and I’m looking for a bike that I will enjoy, like you mentioned on this video that is not going to intimidate me when riding it and it looks good…Vintage Cafe racer look. I’m going to be using this bike to travel back and forth to my work, and weekend’s ride. Which one of the 3 do you recommend for a guy like me?

17,000 kilometers on my Interceptor in Thailand. I live and ride near the beach daily. No rust or problems what so ever. Good luck with yours.

The point about dealer service and support is really important. It doesn’t really matter what you ride, if the dealer sucks then you’re gonna hate your bike.

Just bought one this past Thursday. I've only put about 85 miles on it (55 of those was riding it home from the dealer) and I love it. I think "friendly" is a really great way to describe the bike. Couldn't be happier with it! Need to get some bar end mirrors next.

Look-around on KZread, for owners' installation tips. I cannot remember where I saw it, but a fellow was demonstrating a nice, easy, proper way of getting the bar end loosened-up for attaching the replacement mirrors, without a struggle, and without marring the PARTS with careless tool marks.

I'm hoping that Royal Enfield starts making some serious inroads into the American market. I like that Royal Enfields are NOT overly expensive, complicated or HEAVY. I'm thinking a Continental will be my next motorcycle. Slim, lightweight, responsive and its got enough style to turn heads whenever I'm zipping down a highway or parked where people gather. I've take note about your opinion on tires, shocks, brakes and the rear braking lever and I'll be looking for aftermarket replacements when I do get mine.

Royal Enfield seems to be moving well into the American market. I've seen them here, for years, starting with an older model which was just like an Army Dispatch Rider's motorcycle, in Battle Green, with twin metal panniers, just like a real military bike. There are THREE Dealers, just in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area, plus a Quality Assurance facility in that same area. With fuel prices having been high, it seems like there would be a good market, and even non-motorcyclists tend to stop and look at Royal Enfields, because of their fun, interesting appearance, and to guess their price-point MUCH higher than that for which they're actually offered. There are a LOT of alternative parts available, and I think that you could have a lot of fun, reading-up on this.

Ive got the 2020 mayhem .I agree with a lot of what you stated, before I even took possession of my Bike I switched out the tire to a wider rear & spec front , brand was continental. i also switched out the mirrors to end bar mirrors, Im going to add the 850 Bore kit. S&S exhaust an a proper Cafe fairing. Even though the bike has only 47 Hp its very torquey . Ive had it over hundred a few times after the break in period. I have a coupe of litre Sport Bikes also.

Great Review...

Really good balanced review! I don't think Icould ride with your mate in front of me..... hes pretty unpredictable, I think I'd have to drop back a way, or preferably always be in front. Glad you have found a bike that really suits you, i think it would suit me too. Sbs (Scandinavian brake systems) make brake pads that have transformed the braked of other bikes I have owned.....I think manufacturers fit pads that are a bit wooden so they dont catch inextperienced riders out, but a simple pad change can yeild a lot more stopping power - a bit like what you have done with the tyres. Ride safe!

+Burtoni Motors I agree with you about this bike 100% including the removal of the bar end weights (I ended up using a slide hammer to get mine out, brutal) and excessively tightened stuff. I'm very short so I had some problems particularly on highly cambered roads (I even managed to drop the bike while waiting at an up gradient red light, very embarrassing) but swapping the rear shocks from 360mm to 330mm transformed the bike in a very good way. All of my other modifications (and there have been a lot of them) have have been aimed at reducing the near 200kg weight of the bike. I have no need for more power. Now if only I could find a supplier of aluminium fuel tanks for this bike my weight reduction quest would be complete.

I live in Michigan as well and am actually going to look at a Royal Enfield's today. I would really like to know what dealer gave you the issues, There's only a handful of RE dealers in Michigan so there's a good chance I could end up in the one that gave you issues. Thanks.

I don't understand why this bike is so ridiculously heavy. At 202kg (445 lbs.), It's 35lbs. heavier than my Buell (X1) that has a 1203cc harley engine in it. I really like the styling of these bikes and their bare bones approach, but for what this bike is, it would do well to lose about 80lbs. I like that it has a relatively short wheelbase of 55 inches. And a plus to this bike is that their are a TON of aftermarket parts available for them. S&S even makes engine hop up kits, so their are a lot of good options out there to customize this bike, but the main one is shaving some weight off the damn thing. It's like a fat girl wearing a girdle, she's a lot heavier than she looks.

I think you're like me. You get that feeling and then things start falling-in-place. All I can say is every time I ride my inti I like it more. I've never seen anything attract so much attention on parking-lots. Not that this was my aim. I mean people wanting to take it's picture. You can watch the body-language change as they walk in from the fuel pumps and you say to yourself "that guy's gonna take my bike's picture". Yup.

What is the model of the other bike in this video that is riding with you in front?

Hey, great video. I am from India, and owning this RE continental GT650 since February 2020. There were a bit of regulation changes for 2020 version, but every specification is virtually the same as 2019. About to complete a year with it, and apart from one episode of ‘bike not starting’ which solved itself, I haven’t faced any other issues yet. Still kept it stock and will wait till I hit ten thousand kilometers mark (6.2k miles). It seems quite indestructible as of now. But feels a bit under-powered for it’s own weight and what the chassis can handle as I believe. It’s not as agile when put against other bike smaller displacement motors (plenty here in India), but it’s not meant to be in that segment. Where it scores is similar to what you said in video, it’s does bring a smile every time you would ride, and it’s an easy bike for spirited long distance riding as well as in the city. It’s above average if you have gentle riding in your mind. Let’s see how it goes when I begin modifying/changing things on it.

These things consistently get MASSIVELY over-estimated in price, when a "man-on-the-street" is asked what they'd THINK one would cost. Since they are NOT shoddy, and have well-designed engines, etc., this means that this is not a "fraudulent" impression that Royal Enfield is creating, but simply a really good value, along WITH a really-HIGH perceived value. That way, people end-up BOTH impressed with your bike, but ALSO impressed that you didn't irresponsibly overspend, in getting it, ESPECIALLY since it looks so sporty, etc., and I say that as someone with a good friend with both Ducati and MV Agusta super-bikes, so I know what THAT'S like, to be around.

I'm not sure they want to go that far up market. I'd assume they make more sub 500cc models than anything.

@@kevincraig8257 There aren't a lot of choices for that bike unfortunately, but I basically wanted the most aggressive tire that I could get without having to switch out the rim. That being said, those tires are absolutely amazing and helped transform that bike. For the V2, the tires that come stock are simply spectacular. It would be hard to upgrade those unless I go for an only track setup.

Haha, you're right. The fuel gauge is terrible! I love the ambiguity, is it near empty? Nope, it's got half a tank. Completely random. A shame about your shitty dealership, my local one is great. It's associated with the late great Barry Sheene

would love to know whats your friends bike haha

There are different quality levels for each tire manufacture. Spend less time hitting yourself in the face with your palm and some more time researching.
