Pros Cons of Royal Enfield Interceptor 650

Pros

  • Beautiful looking motorcycle
  • Smooth, torquey engine
  • Good performance

Cons

  • Vibrations at top end
  • Awkward footpeg positioning
  • Heavy motorcycle

Verdict

Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 is possibly all the bike you ever need till the time you stick to tarmac. It looks good. The quality of fit and finish is commendable and the performance is solid too. The engine is one of the finest we have seen in recent times, on a middleweight motorcycle. Yes! It has a couple of chinks in its armour, but nothing that could be a deal-breaker. It works wonderfully as a daily ride and will be good company on your occasional highway jaunts too.

Pros Cons JAWA Forty Two

Pros

  • Refined performance
  • Comfortable riding position
  • Sorted ride and handling

Cons

  • Low ground clearance
  • Low cornering clearance
  • Welding quality not up to the mark

Verdict

The Jawa Forty-Two 2.1 certainly makes for a more appealing package, particularly with the new updates, which are not just skin deep. The tubeless tyres will offer peace of mind to riders, the seat will offer a more comfortable perch, the exhaust note has become throatier, and the ride quality is supple, and firm.Overall, the new Jawa 42 is a nicely put together bike, except for cornering clearance, and a few glaring welds on the frame and on the back of the forks.
