Review: The Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 Is The Best of Modern Retro Motorcycling with One Small Caveat

Royal Enfield Makes a Truly Good Motorcycle in the Interceptor 650

This past year, I had a chance to ride the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650. I co-wrote a review with my friend and colleague Jim Pruner. Both of us came away from the experience pretty impressed with the bike.
