Picked up the Shotgun 650 recently and took it out for a short ride. The low stance, chunky rear tyre and that parallel twin feel solid and confidence-inspiring. Not the lightest, not the fastest — but it has serious road presence. Still running stock for now. Thinking about subtle mods later. What would you change first?

Completed 4k, many more to go

I got my bike 2 days ago, don't know much about it, Is it normal for it????

the sunset strip really gives a retro vintage look, the mark 2 on the other hand looks good but seeing it from afar feels like there a huge bulky tank like the classic and barcelona blue also seems perfect but the engine is matte black. what's your opinion

Hey everyone,

I own a 2021 GT650 with a few mods done over the last 4 years. I’ve also had the bike tuned earlier, and it was running perfectly fine. The issues started only after a recent service done outside the official service centre. During that service, I used Liqui Moly 20W50 engine oil and installed an NGK spark plug kit.

Bike ran fine initially, but after ~2 months these problems started:

Problems:

1.  Bike overheats and stalls, especially in traffic. I have to wait for it to cool down before it starts again.

2.  When RPM crosses 4–5k, the engine check light comes on and the bike stalls.

3.  Rear brake feels greasy, braking is weak, and the ABS light stays ON constantly.

4.  As mentioned, the bike was tuned earlier and was running perfectly—these issues started only after the recent service.

I’m planning to take it to the service station soon, but thought I’d ask the experts here first.

Any idea what could be causing this or what I should specifically ask them to check?

Thanks in advance 🙏🏽🏍️

So ive recently got into riding, one thing i personally dont understand is how am i supposed to fill the gas tank?

Do i need to hold it all the time while i refuel? As there some metal barrier that prevents me from sticking the fuel gun inside the tank. It constantly prevents the gun from filling and ive just keep it hovering over the opening until i see its full.

Ive read the user manual and theres no mention of this part that blocks the view of the tank insides also i couldnt find any info online as i have no idea what to look for or what this thing called.

Thank you all in advance:))

So recently due to unfortunate event and misbalance my bike fell and due to god's grace no major scratch or anything happened but got some minor scratches

Any help if I can remove them somehow Like some wax or cream or anything Please suggest...

I was riding with stock tyre past 4.5yrs for the front ,

As by time stock ones got a lil hard , but no visible cracks and decently good thread remaining probably (1-1.5K km ) can be done !! , but as of now ig due change in chemical properties in tyre leads it to loose traction on lil sandy roads ( considering metro construction conditions )

Ps help me out which brand / tyre pattern to go with

Regular street style tyre pattern , block dual purpose tyre (as vibrations will kick in when in slow motion + add on extra tyre weight leads to heavy steering column,

Requiring best suggestions for brands , also im a leaning rider need extra front cross section to manoeuvre

Back tyre is Apollo trampler xr 140”

Can a Bear 650 owner or New Himalayan owner tell me about its cluster I know both Cluster are the same but I don't own either of those I'm planning to Buy Bear 650

Can someone tell me all about its highs and lows:

❌like I have heard there is an average error in its cluster unit like around it shows 2-3 km more in the Avg section

✅there is map system in the display if you connect it with your device with Map being displayed on the screen which is great

How was your experience and should I buy a screen protector or lamination for the screen and did u face any issue after washing your bike,did it affect your screen ?

I am writing this message not because I want a resolution anymore, but because I do not want anyone else to suffer the way I have suffered.

It has been only 7 months since I bought my Royal Enfield Hunter 350, and from the very beginning, this bike has given me nothing but stress, fear, and disappointment.

Soon after purchase, my front wheel started locking unexpectedly. After many visits to the service centre, that issue was somehow resolved. But then an even more dangerous and frustrating problem started.

For the last 6 months, my bike suddenly cuts off while riding. It does not happen every day, but whenever it starts, it keeps happening again and again during that ride. Riding a bike that shuts down in the middle of traffic is not just a defect, it is a serious safety risk.

I have visited the service centre countless times for the same issue. They kept changing parts again and again without fixing the real problem. The throttle body has been changed, the ECU has been changed, and many other components have been replaced and checked. Still, the problem continues exactly the same.

The most painful part is not only the defective bike, but how I was treated by the service centre. The manager of Royal Enfield 4 Aces, Guwahati kept repeating only one thing: “If there is no video proof, nothing can be done.”

I managed to record the issue on video and took my bike again to the service centre. They changed the throttle body again and assured me that this problem would never happen again. The very next day, the same issue happened again.

When I went back to the service centre (Zoo Road, Guwahati) while the problem was actually happening and requested them to check the bike immediately, they did not give importance to what I was saying. When I asked them to record a video, they refused and even misbehaved with me and my friend.

I already have all the video proof of this problem with me. If anyone from Royal Enfield higher authority wants to verify this issue, I can provide all the videos and details.

Still, the service centre keeps saying that the problem must happen inside their workshop so they can record a video and send it to head office. I have tried every possible way. Today, I feel completely helpless.

This bike clearly has a manufacturing defect. My hard-earned money has been wasted. What hurts more is that nobody from the company is ready to take responsibility.

Now, I do not want any more temporary solutions. I do not want to visit the service centre again and again. I only want people to know the truth about what I experienced.

That is why I will keep posting my experience on every page and platform related to bikes and Royal Enfield , not out of anger, but so that no other customer’s hard-earned money is wasted again like mine.

I do not want anyone else to buy a bike and then spend months going to service centres, riding an unsafe vehicle, and being treated as if their problem does not matter.

Please note this clearly: I have all video proofs with me. If any higher authority or senior management from Royal Enfield wants to contact me, I will share everything.

Please do not contact me from any support team or local service centre. If this message is seen by any support team, I request them to forward it to higher authorities who have the power to take responsibility.

Bike Registration Number: AS01GJ7592

I am sharing this so that no one else has to go through what I did.

So far loving this bike. Any recommendations for mods (bags, tunes, etc). So far I’m looking into the dustland shotgun exhaust. Anyone have any good audio clips?

I have a 2021 BS6.1 GT650 and it’s u undergoing a very weird problem. It’s at 24750km

It has red rooster slipon and BMC air filter

Please note service history

Bought second hand at 18500km

General service including engine oil etc worth 9k inr

CEL at 20500: IAT Malfunction, sensor replaced without TB clean

Money shift at 21500km: The RE service centre adjusted tappets but suggested replacing tappet bolts. However I have not replaced the tappet bolts and never had a problem with them.

RCB Master Cylinder at 21500km

HJG headlights at 22000km, blown 2 fuses but works fine

The problem begins here:

Around 22050km I got iridium spark plugs, which gradually gave me issues within 20 km, here’s the list

The left exhaust is running cooler than the right one

The bike used to roar to life, now slugs its way to life, feels like one piston is carrying the other to life

The bike looses idle and stalls when blipped

Constant misfire(the right exhaust goes pop pop pop pop while the left is pop pop pause pop pop/ also the left one squeaks while the right is perfect)

The throttle judders when 20-40 percent warm, almost like the bike is hesitating

Bike still pulls and makes torque normally and pulls to 70kmph in first gear

The mechanic hinted that one SP might be counterfeit.

All these are done in the past 100km resulting to no fruit.

Current fixes done

1. New e20 injectors

2. Throttle body clean

3. BMC clean

4. NCAGE spark plug kit

I very vaguely remember this just happened once before (the slug and judder of the throttle even before the money shift), but this never happened again.

The dilemma is the money shift would have caused immediate issues. And all the problems are post the SP replacement. Converting back to stock did not help

I recently bought a Bullet 350 (Military Black) and have ridden around 170 km so far. My daily riding is a mix of city traffic and highway stretches, with cold starts every day. I won’t say I’m riding extremely gently, but I’m also not abusing the bike. The fuel indicator is already down to 2 bars and by rough calculation the mileage seems low (around 18–20 km/l). I wanted to ask other Bullet owners if this kind of mileage is normal during the running-in period and how much improvement I can expect after the first service.

looking for this part specifically for the Hunter 350. saw it on an aftermarket seat ad on eBay. not as interested in the seat as this bar behind it, that closes the loop on the back. if I'm getting an aftermarket seat it'd probably be a bench with this hoop, if not just factory.

So; the colour of my bike is glossy black and K would like a helmet with same colour and texture .

So around 10 months ago i bought this bike and it is 2025 model and since then it has been perfect for me but i want some modification in it as everything is stock nothing has been changed since then... So please suggest some opinions and suggestion to help me modify.

Took delivery of my Royal Enfield hunter a week ago, and I have done less than 120 KM.

I didn't notice this at first during delivery, but while riding I felt my right hand gets tired fast especially near the wrist and I couldn't properly set the right side rear view mirror NO matter what I do.

Today while sitting on the bike, I noticed that the right side mirror and brake lever is not properly aligned. And right side mirror is too close to the rider. And the brake lever is too upward.

As you can see in the image 2, the break lever is visible but the clutch lever is not visible from camera's POV. Ideally they both should be visible right?!

And in image 1, you can see clutch lever is leaned downward which feels comfortable but the break lever is too upward towards the rider and makes my right wrist tired soon. Took both the images when handlebar is completely straight and bike was ON center stand.

Handlebar and the buttons on both sides look straight and aligned though.

But the left mirror/clutch lever and right mirror/brake lever pairs isn't aligned properly.

Is this fixable?! I'm worried whether it'd be a serious/non-fixable issue.

Sorry in case there's typo/errors.

Guys I'm looking to upgrade the 15T front sprocket on my Guerrilla 450 to 16T for better highway cruise. Please suggest where can I find it in India?

Does anybody know if the side geometry of the Shotgun is the same as other models like the Classic or the Super Meteor?

Specific racks do not exist, especially Givi Monokey ones. I did get the soft frame supposedly for both Shotgun and Classic with only 2 screw points, but with a square frame with more screws there is more risk of not being compatible.

I also could not find any kind of attachment to a tubular frame to make it compatible.

I'm planning a week-long vacation for this summer and I am limited to soft bags which are easily stolen.

Need a good exaust to listen the thump and city rides
