seriously, what exactly is the point of this video. It just looks like a summary of the initial ride videos of each of these bikes which came out at their respective launch time. Where is any useful insights based on the side by side comparison?

I would say that the comparison isn't correctly done. Triumph 400 + Hunter 350 + Honda highness RS 350 would have been the better comparison. And on the other hand Honda highness CB350 + RE classic + Harley 440 would have been the better comparison.

Hunter is a cheaper bike with least character and quality of all RE bikes. It's simply outclassed here.

Much better to go riding a bike instead? ???
I understand personal preference but I fail to understand how the classic is the winner out of this lot. I don’t need my motorcycle to “speak to my soul” I want a good looking, reliable, predictable handling motorcycle with ample power to hold triple digits speed and ability to overtake cars, buses or other larger vehicles when needed as you do while touring and also not get bored with the performance 3 or more years down the line. I’d go- Triumph>X440>RE. And re is not even close. Fair enough we still don’t know the long term reliability of the Triumph but I’m fairly confident this will be at least relatively reliable than the RE.

Fully agree, keeping aside the poor build quality(even the Classic in this video looks like it has a bent rim) the RE just feels unsafe for the type of riding/touring I do. The tagline RE is a feeling or it rides like a gun or whatever lines people refer to RE is just getting cringier day by day.

The 'winner' wasn't the Royal Enfield at all. Jehan has said the best bike of them all is the Triumph Speed 400. However, it might not be the best bike for all. So, he's gone out and listed where each bike's core focus is and what you should expect of you get it.
That front rim on the classic 350 has taken a hit ...a prominent bend
This is kinda unfair to the x440, its a first gen product give it some time to breathe in the market. HD x440 look bit unfinished so did other products when they were first introduced. Also the nature of the bike caters to a different kind of riders. if this comparison was between the Meteor 350, H'ness 350 and X440 it would be a fair comparison.

It is totally a biased review on RE , who ever was in this channel they know hness is more valuable than RE no bike can beat the refinement of honda . I love india and im sure i support indian brands but not for YOUR discriminating character Royal Enfield
I love the harley, it looks masculine and regal.
My speed 400 is a beauty, every one say don't buy the first few series but can't resist the temptations got myself one and it's the best decision, it's buttery smooth, pulls like a bull with even a pillion rider, timeless design no complaint at all only thing bothering me is finding the neutral and the led could have been a little bit brighter, hopefully in long-term I don't get any issues with the bike and after sales service.Can't wait for the accessories to arrive on the market to make my "Dhanno" extra personalise.

Simple answer pick a honda 350 or re, if youre fan boy of re. Rest are kinda bs in the segment, great comparison putting the Speed 400, right here, that would be a fair comparison. Duke 390 is on next level anyway, not a difficult choice to make!
Front wheel of the classic rim bent I think do check i saw a bend.
No mention about service centers, nothing about service costs, service interval, nothing on headlight performance, which has expensive parts, standard tyres each bike come with, value for money comparison, feature comparison, fuel tank capacity of each bike, pillion comfort, braking performance, etc... Overall this comparison felt like first ride review of eacc bikes
Take my word go for a test ride 440x you will love it for sure.

The thing with Royal Enfield is that if someone wants to buy a Royal Enfield they look at which Royal Enfield to buy not what the competition is or what they have to offer. I ride an Indian Scout yet I wana buy a Royal Enfield and see what's it's about.
