    Unique cafe rider bike and mainly chrome Mr. Clean looks unique on the roads and Power is an amazing and affordable 650cc bike in India that must be only gt650. The exhaust note sound is very nice and it makes me ride my bike often and more importantly, good service is done in Royal Enfield. I prefer gt 650 over a Kawasaki because the service cost will be higher as i had a Kawasaki z250

  • Retro charm

    4 years ago


    Aditya Dhanraj Phukan

    First of all i would like to mention that if you are someone from 90s then you would definitely like the retro charm of this bike it's not a bike but a piece of beauty from the late 90s but with a bit of modern touch. As for the details the bike has a nice roar in its stock exhaust which is sufficient with the bike's persona. As for the performance it gives the best output and feels like it will go for more when you put throttle to max, but the best part is that it's for the ones who wanna enjoy the ride as it's braking ,power are at the best as for the brakes they are tuned with bosch abs system which is best of a kind. The best part is the custom parts as most of the people are not satisfied with a stock bike so re is offering customization for the gt as well as the interceptor and people don't have to depend on aftermarket accessories anymore.Being a 650cc it's maintenance is very reasonable and not that costly which the imported bikes charges. As for the ridding experience it's for the ones who wanna feel the ride and even though it's a cafe racer you won't have any back issues which is a problem with other sports bike if you want to use it for daily purpose then also you won't be having any trouble because the engine is so refined that it doesn't feels like you are riding a 200 kg bike but the only trouble is with the tube tyre if you have a sudden puncture but if you think about that then there was a time when tubeless tyres were not available so it's not a bit deal after all. And you get a centre stand as optional in accessories . Overall if you are someone who wants power with a retro looks and want to have a memory of a lifetime the it's a great deal because this bike will be with you in your old days as well cause it's all metal with little plastic only thing is that if you maintain it properly it will have the showroom looks and the colour will not fade which is a problem with plastic . Everything is upto the mark with this machine only thing is that you care for it and it will never put you down

    Tips for other riders

    * Don't do any aftermarket modifications doing that will ruin the bike. * Proper service will keep the bike in perfect condition and the servicing periods are mentioned on the book itself. * Lube the chain when it gets dry. * Don't put LEDs it may affect the battery life. * Don't let the petrol tank get empty as it's a fi engine. * There's a DIY on the bike on the official channel of RE YouTube for simple jobs. * When you purchase the bike put the big guard as it will protect both the tank and engine instead of the short guard which protects the engine only.

  • Best buy in the segment

    2 years ago


    Rohith

    The buying experience was really easy as there were no much options available for the bike, I brought the clean color and believe me its the best color a bike can get. Riding experience is fine but the position need to be somewhat difficult for a 5'8 feet guy to ride, the amount of power it gives when you ride is unexplainable, coming to looks its not upto the mark, but believe me this engine is a beast, no other engine in this range is refined as much as engine is refined. Don't expect much for the maintenance and service as you have the higher quality the higher the charges, the service is somewhat on the costlier side, maintenance is ok my bike is giving around 18 km/l which is good for a 650cc beast.

  • Don't buy.. its Pathetic.

    1 year ago


    Manish

    Imagine riding on a signature bike from RE on a highway, at a speed of 90km/h in between the trucks, and suddenly your brakes are not working when you need them the most. Your life is in DANGER.
    This is what happened to me 20 days ago while riding on a 4 lac Rs GT 650 which I bought last year.
    In the very first week, the bike started showing its colors or they say the quality speaks for itself. The bike was switching off regularly while in neutral mode. The service center took 4 days to resolve the issue.
    In the first five months, the instrument cluster got replaced 2 times after showing different issues. 1 time the sensor got replaced as it was also showing issues regularly.
    On a highway one day, the bike got broken as the fuel pump was not working, it got towed down to the service center for repair. The fuel pump was also changed after 4 days of trials by the service team.
    Noise on sudden acceleration from the engine and lack of power is something that is there from the very beginning.
    In recent days I got lucky to save my life on a busy highway as the braking system of the bike failed to work multiple times. When I showed it to the service center they said everything is working fine and returned the bike. After this, I again faced the same issue and took the bike to the service center. After keeping the bike with themselves for 8-10 days the service guy told me that there is some major issue with the bike as there is some issue with the Gear system of the bike and they will have to send the bike to the main Rithala, Delhi-based service center. After almost 20 days, they are saying that they will have to open the engine to find out the issue as there is some problem with the acceleration system in the gearbox.
    Now, tell me after spending a good 4 lac Rs I got this crap, and right after the purchase I am running to the different service centers to get the issue resolved. I accepted everything till now all the hustles all the problems I accepted but one thing I cannot accept at any cost is that my bike's engine will be opened for repair. I am an avid biker and people ask me every time for a review of this bike and till now I have nothing good to say about it or about the company.

  • Your budget monster for daily commute

    2 years ago


    Anviraj Shetty

    It's just a monster when comes to the performance..yes the 390 is just a little better in initial pull but once u up the 3rd gear then there's no catching this bike..I personally ride it almost 130-150 kms a day and I'm used to its riding position, so I don't find it difficult..the road presence is just marvelous. I'll definitely give it a 10/10.

    Maintaining gt is also not as expensive as you read on the net... Every 5k kms you should get a service done which will cost u around 3.5-5k depending upon what are the things to be done.

    Tanish

    Good bike and it’s a value for a price, you won’t get any other 650 parallel twin-cylinder cafe racer bike one negative thing about this bike is the fuel gauge doesn’t work properly it shows an inaccurate fuel indicator, gt is a cafe racer segment bike and never compare other segments bike with this bike. In the initial days, you will feel the heat from the engine but later after 1st service you won’t much heat, in city rides, you will feel the heat but on the highway, you won’t feel the heat. The braking system is good in gt. While you riding at 6000 rpm you will feel like you are flying with wings in the air. Overall nice bike but need to improve in electronics

    Buying is a bit higher as compared to a bike, but riding is so powerful still a bit less comfortable and more powerful. The engine is well furnished, looks big, and the exhaust is also a little loud, service depends on your city and it costs a little high, and spare parts are also for average people, the instrument cluster looks retro more than alright.

  • A wonderful machine

    2 years ago


    Gaurav

    My buying experience was not very exciting as a waiting period of more than 6 months and also could not deliver with all accessories as ordered.
    But my riding experience is very good. I have been touring (600+ km a day) for 3 years and had issue only with punctures. Till now no technical/mechanical issue faced with the bike. On highways, it sticks to the road and completes the balance.
    The only challenge you may face is with riding posture, which I get adjusted after a few rides. The other minor issue is with headlights, which are not very effective.

    The price is worth it in this segment. The real machine. The twin-cylinder engine in this budget is more pocket friendly for riders. Stunning looks. But have to compromise the mileage... Although it's good. Enjoying the smooth and sexy ride.No one can beat this bike in this segment. Having this bike I'm a happy customer among the royal Enfield family. Love it.

    Check the bike certain period of time according to ur ride... basically use the gears while on this monster....a solution is available in the nearby market to make the tyre puncture-proof... you can have it also on Amazon.

    The only challenge you may face is with riding posture, which I get adjusted after a few rides. The other minor issue is with headlights, which are not very effective.

    The price is worth it in this segment. The real machine. The twin-cylinder engine in this budget is more pocket friendly for riders. Stunning looks. But have to compromise the mileage... Although it's good. Enjoying the smooth and sexy ride.No one can beat this bike in this segment. Having this bike I'm a happy customer among the royal Enfield family. Love it.

    Unique cafe rider bike and mainly chrome Mr. Clean looks unique on the roads and Power is an amazing and affordable 650cc bike in India that must be only gt650. The exhaust note sound is very nice and it makes me ride my bike often and more importantly, good service is done in Royal Enfield. I prefer gt 650 over a Kawasaki because the service cost will be higher as i had a Kawasaki z250

  • Retro charm

    4 years ago


    Aditya Dhanraj Phukan

    First of all i would like to mention that if you are someone from 90s then you would definitely like the retro charm of this bike it's not a bike but a piece of beauty from the late 90s but with a bit of modern touch. As for the details the bike has a nice roar in its stock exhaust which is sufficient with the bike's persona. As for the performance it gives the best output and feels like it will go for more when you put throttle to max, but the best part is that it's for the ones who wanna enjoy the ride as it's braking ,power are at the best as for the brakes they are tuned with bosch abs system which is best of a kind. The best part is the custom parts as most of the people are not satisfied with a stock bike so re is offering customization for the gt as well as the interceptor and people don't have to depend on aftermarket accessories anymore.Being a 650cc it's maintenance is very reasonable and not that costly which the imported bikes charges. As for the ridding experience it's for the ones who wanna feel the ride and even though it's a cafe racer you won't have any back issues which is a problem with other sports bike if you want to use it for daily purpose then also you won't be having any trouble because the engine is so refined that it doesn't feels like you are riding a 200 kg bike but the only trouble is with the tube tyre if you have a sudden puncture but if you think about that then there was a time when tubeless tyres were not available so it's not a bit deal after all. And you get a centre stand as optional in accessories . Overall if you are someone who wants power with a retro looks and want to have a memory of a lifetime the it's a great deal because this bike will be with you in your old days as well cause it's all metal with little plastic only thing is that if you maintain it properly it will have the showroom looks and the colour will not fade which is a problem with plastic . Everything is upto the mark with this machine only thing is that you care for it and it will never put you down

    Rohith

    The buying experience was really easy as there were no much options available for the bike, I brought the clean color and believe me its the best color a bike can get. Riding experience is fine but the position need to be somewhat difficult for a 5'8 feet guy to ride, the amount of power it gives when you ride is unexplainable, coming to looks its not upto the mark, but believe me this engine is a beast, no other engine in this range is refined as much as engine is refined. Don't expect much for the maintenance and service as you have the higher quality the higher the charges, the service is somewhat on the costlier side, maintenance is ok my bike is giving around 18 km/l which is good for a 650cc beast.

    1 year ago


    Manish

    Imagine riding on a signature bike from RE on a highway, at a speed of 90km/h in between the trucks, and suddenly your brakes are not working when you need them the most. Your life is in DANGER.
    This is what happened to me 20 days ago while riding on a 4 lac Rs GT 650 which I bought last year.
    In the very first week, the bike started showing its colors or they say the quality speaks for itself. The bike was switching off regularly while in neutral mode. The service center took 4 days to resolve the issue.
    In the first five months, the instrument cluster got replaced 2 times after showing different issues. 1 time the sensor got replaced as it was also showing issues regularly.
    On a highway one day, the bike got broken as the fuel pump was not working, it got towed down to the service center for repair. The fuel pump was also changed after 4 days of trials by the service team.
    Noise on sudden acceleration from the engine and lack of power is something that is there from the very beginning.
    In recent days I got lucky to save my life on a busy highway as the braking system of the bike failed to work multiple times. When I showed it to the service center they said everything is working fine and returned the bike. After this, I again faced the same issue and took the bike to the service center. After keeping the bike with themselves for 8-10 days the service guy told me that there is some major issue with the bike as there is some issue with the Gear system of the bike and they will have to send the bike to the main Rithala, Delhi-based service center. After almost 20 days, they are saying that they will have to open the engine to find out the issue as there is some problem with the acceleration system in the gearbox.
    Now, tell me after spending a good 4 lac Rs I got this crap, and right after the purchase I am running to the different service centers to get the issue resolved. I accepted everything till now all the hustles all the problems I accepted but one thing I cannot accept at any cost is that my bike's engine will be opened for repair. I am an avid biker and people ask me every time for a review of this bike and till now I have nothing good to say about it or about the company.

    It's just a monster when comes to the performance..yes the 390 is just a little better in initial pull but once u up the 3rd gear then there's no catching this bike..I personally ride it almost 130-150 kms a day and I'm used to its riding position, so I don't find it difficult..the road presence is just marvelous. I'll definitely give it a 10/10.

    Good bike and it’s a value for a price, you won’t get any other 650 parallel twin-cylinder cafe racer bike one negative thing about this bike is the fuel gauge doesn’t work properly it shows an inaccurate fuel indicator, gt is a cafe racer segment bike and never compare other segments bike with this bike. In the initial days, you will feel the heat from the engine but later after 1st service you won’t much heat, in city rides, you will feel the heat but on the highway, you won’t feel the heat. The braking system is good in gt. While you riding at 6000 rpm you will feel like you are flying with wings in the air. Overall nice bike but need to improve in electronics

    Buying is a bit higher as compared to a bike, but riding is so powerful still a bit less comfortable and more powerful. The engine is well furnished, looks big, and the exhaust is also a little loud, service depends on your city and it costs a little high, and spare parts are also for average people, the instrument cluster looks retro more than alright.

    My buying experience was not very exciting as a waiting period of more than 6 months and also could not deliver with all accessories as ordered.
    But my riding experience is very good. I have been touring (600+ km a day) for 3 years and had issue only with punctures. Till now no technical/mechanical issue faced with the bike. On highways, it sticks to the road and completes the balance.
    The only challenge you may face is with riding posture, which I get adjusted after a few rides. The other minor issue is with headlights, which are not very effective.

    Buying is a bit higher as compared to a bike, but riding is so powerful still a bit less comfortable and more powerful. The engine is well furnished, looks big, and the exhaust is also a little loud, service depends on your city and it costs a little high, and spare parts are also for average people, the instrument cluster looks retro more than alright.

    My buying experience was not very exciting as a waiting period of more than 6 months and also could not deliver with all accessories as ordered.
    But my riding experience is very good. I have been touring (600+ km a day) for 3 years and had issue only with punctures. Till now no technical/mechanical issue faced with the bike. On highways, it sticks to the road and completes the balance.
    The only challenge you may face is with riding posture, which I get adjusted after a few rides. The other minor issue is with headlights, which are not very effective.

    The price is worth it in this segment. The real machine. The twin-cylinder engine in this budget is more pocket friendly for riders. Stunning looks. But have to compromise the mileage... Although it's good. Enjoying the smooth and sexy ride.No one can beat this bike in this segment. Having this bike I'm a happy customer among the royal Enfield family. Love it.

    Tips for other riders

    Check the bike certain period of time according to ur ride... basically use the gears while on this monster....a solution is available in the nearby market to make the tyre puncture-proof... you can have it also on Amazon.
