  • On this edition of Jalopnik First Ride, the 2024 Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 motorcycle. Enfield's Super Meteor 650 gets an aggressive city makeover.
    #motorcycle #enfield #firstride
    From Jalopnik writer Steve DaSilva:
    The Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 is the third bike I’ve ridden with Enfield’s 650cc twin engine, and its 46 horsepower are as dreamy here as they were in the INT650 and the Super Meteor. The 31 lb-ft of low-end torque are great, and the gearbox neatly clicks into each gear with confidence and ease - the clutch, too, makes stop-and-go riding a breeze.
    The riding position on the Shotgun sits directly between those two bikes, neither as pitched-forward as the INT nor as laid back as the Super Meteor. It strains neither your wrists nor your back, even after a full day in the saddle - a claim neither of its siblings in the lineup can match.

    A bike for someone who doesn't need to impress anyone, and just wants to enjoy a ride on the weekends.

    Nice review and thank you!!! Any bad vibrations or bad heat from the engine ? Do you think it is beginner friendly motorcycle ? Cheers :)

      Honestly, it was way too cold out to notice ny major heat from the engine, but it's pretty balanced in terms of vibrations. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to a beginner!

    I've seen several riders riding between the lanes get doored when a car has stopped and their driver opens the car door into traffic. Yes, it is legal in most states and provinces but I wouldn't do it.

      You should only filter at maybe 10mph faster than traffic.
      If you hit a suddenly open door at that speed, it'll suck, but you won't get hurt.
      The bigger concern is a slowly moving vehicle forcing you under another slowly moving vehicle.

    Looks Good! The only negative I see is the chain. Todays new riders dont want to tweek with chains... They just wanna ride.

    If you've got a sore back at 27 you don't have a bad bike, you have a bad back. I'm truly sorry. (Don't ask me how I know....)

      I wouldn't say it's guaranteed to be uncomfortable, but I might wait for one to show up in your local showroom before committing. Sit on it, see how it feels
