Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki W800 2012

Without purpose, without instruction, without duty. And the more time you spend with her, the more you realise that the whole world can do you. Like in the sixties.

Plenty of power

stable

comfortable seat

confident look

user-friendly handling.

Rather high total weight.

Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 2020

The Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 offers a very coherent overall package in the retro segment. A relaxed seating position, lots of chrome and the cultivated two-cylinder make it a pretty object of desire that also stands up to everyday use. You won't find any modern features, but with an output of 47 hp, traction control and riding modes would be superfluous anyway. If you long for decelerated, relaxed cruising and purist motorcycling, you will definitely be happy with the Interceptor 650.

Refined engine Relaxed seating position Good brakes Classic round instruments Authentic retro look

Chassis does not withstand sporty driving style

seat uncomfortable in the long run
