am sure to expect the same big bikes with EFI and nothing more. Why isn’t RE working on a cafe racer?
Another company which is doing good for itself only because of absence of some serious competition in its segment. Most of their fans will switch over the day we have honda, yamaha or even Bajaj and TVS making similar bikes.
I’m not into bikes but I’ve seen really nice bikes in movies and streets. I also agree that if Honda or other popular brands would produce same look, people most definitely will choose it over this Royal Enfield.
Ducati is great too :)
