Way back in 1960 a 16 year-old named Eddie Mulder took his Royal Enfield victory against over 750 other riders in a massive desert race at Big Bear Lake, California.
Mulder was the guest speaker as Royal Enfield unveiled a bike which is a tribute to that achievement, the new Bear 650 – a modified Interceptor chassis, spoke wheels with a 19-inch front, chunky tyres and the 270-degree parallel twin motor we’ve seen in all the Royal Enfield twins since 2018.
The retro style bike also features a two into one exhaust, flat seat, LED lights, USD forks and increased suspension travel at both ends.
The engine is the grunty 47 horsepower unit which ha gained so much popularity over recent years.
More on the bike soon.
