Media Reviews

    The chassis is the surprise: despite looking like a throwback to appeal to riders of advancing years, it’s firm, willing and stable when you avoid the brakes and keep speed up for corners.

    MCN

  • quote

    The Bear 650 is a fine motorcycle that performs well, is solidly built, offers plenty of nice tidbits, and, perhaps best of all, looks great with several eye-pleasing colorways from which to choose.

    Cycle News

  • quote

    Overall though, the Bear is a very enjoyable bike to go scratching on a B-road. It’s extremely chuckable, loves being thrown around and has a sweet engine with a light clutch and faultless gearbox. It also looks fantastic, and as it’s a Royal Enfield.

    Visordown

  • quote

    On hard-packed dirt, the Bear is comfortable and confident. Tires developed just for this model have a similar tread pattern to Pirelli STRs, but with more shallow tread depth and tread blocks placed more closely together to improve on-road performance and reduce road noise.

    Cycle World

  • quote

    While credible on the highway, the Bear came into its own on the backroads. Wafting along a meandering mountain pass is what this bike does best
