The thing with the Royal Enfield Classic is that for me, riding one is not about the power. It is about a kind of mindfulness, a peace and relaxation. Riding both the Classic 350 and 500 brings a completely different experience to when I ride the GSX, Thruxton, or even the T100. Riding them calms my inner soul, the ride becomes more thoughtful the further you go, it’s almost like you’ve stepped off this crazy spinning world and time has stopped. I find time to observe, appreciate and admire the world around me.
So, the big question is, does doubling the cylinders and horsepower remove this feeling? Does the slightly stiffer suspension kill the elevated, comfortable ride? Does the extra weight mean that more effort has to be put in to distract from the effortless ride of the smaller capacity classics?
Those were the questions I wanted answers to.
