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 Kawasaki W800 Street

Pros

  • Refined motor
  • Modern-classic styling
  • Comfortable riding position

Cons

  • Quality could've been better
  • Pricey over rivals
  • Lacks on the feature front

Verdict

The Kawasaki W800 is a modern classic model which pays homage to the 1960s Kawasaki W series models. With its minimalistic yet elegant design, simple lines, the W800 looks like a proper authentic retro bike. The W800 has a charmingly retro vibe to it and the performance complements that, although the engineering is completely modern. The only downside is the price, which makes it an expensive proposition.
