Australian First Ride of the SHOTGUN 650 

Yeah I agree. It's a great looking bike, A little heavy, but otherwise it ticks the boxes. Regards FPPete.

Thanks heaps mate, it sure is a nice bike/tank. Regards FPPete.

Hi Steven, Yeah it's a great Dealership, very friendly. Test ride a few of the Royal Enfield bikes, to see if they are the bike for you. the 650's are reliable bikes, and the new Himalayan 450 is worth a look if you want to do some offroad stuff. Regards FPPete.

Thanks J-L, The ShotGun sure is a Cool looking Bike, with a sweet engine. Modifying this bike sure is appealing. Regards FPPete.

@@FULLPELTAdventures I heard a rumour that there will be a 650 Classic, a 650 Bullet and a 650 Scrambler in due course. If that was the case, I'd pick a Classic sight unseen, then it would be interesting to compare the Shotgun with the Bullet. Did I mention that I prefer a 650 Classic?

Yeah it's looks will sure help sell the Bike. It should be a nice reliable Cruiser/Bobber. Regards FPPete.

Thats great feedback for EMAM. I will tell Noel. I am very appreciative that Noel is kind enough to allow me to test ride and video his new arrivals. Yes it sure is a great Dealership. Regards FPPete.

Hi Joe, Thanks Heaps for your comment, really appreciated. Regards FPPete.

Thanks Will, Yeah mate cannons or pea shooters, I think some aftermarket Barrels would really make it a formidable weapon in the Royal Enfield arsenal. LOL. Regards FPPete.

They look 'period' correct - even though it's a mix of old and modern

Thanks Mark, Glad you liked the review. Yeah the fuel usage wasn't perfect but it gives you an idea of how much the Shotgun drinks. Regards FPPete.

I can't wait to ride the MT, sure is going to be a popular bike. Regards FPPete.

You never know with Royal Enfield, they may just change things later to keep interest in the bike. Regards FPPete.

Thanks heaps RRR. RE have done a great job of creating another cool Bike using their 650 engine. Regards FPPete.

@@FULLPELTAdventures I agree bro. Cheers. :)

Thanks heaps, glad you enjoyed the vid. The bike is pretty good for what it's designed to do. Regards FPPete.

Ha Ha, the Calder 4x4, love it. I thought the rear suspension was very hard and it was set on the 2nd softest pre-load setting. So maybe some quality rear shocks would transform the rear end. The front forks worked well in my opinion. Regards FPPete.

I would think a switch that senses if the bike is in gear or neutral would govern if you can start the bike. If not, as you said. Regards FPPete.

Thanks for that. My bike didn't have a Tacho, so I couldn't tell the rev's. The engine is sweet and does a great job. Regards FPPete.

Ha Ha, It appears so. World first, you only need a motorcycle license to own a shotgun, and use it as you please. Great comment Bill.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ha Ha, I won't be riding this cruiser off road. For a start, the rear suspension would need to be way softer to do that. Regards FPPete.
