The two Royal Enfield 650s you are looking at are limited in terms of comfort in one way or another. The Continental GT 650 – with its committed rider’s triangle – will be comfortable only for short blasts before you start to become uncomfortable.
Meanwhile, with its rather stiff rear suspension, the Bear 650 will toss you around over anything other than perfect tarmac roads. Between the two, we’d still recommend choosing the Continental because at least you have the peace of mind of tubeless tyres if you fit the accessory alloy wheels to it, which isn’t possible on the Bear.
If you are open to considering the Interceptor, that makes for a fun Sunday bike, too, with far fewer compromises than both of its aforementioned siblings.
A test ride of all three will help you make up your mind.
