From its peashooter exhaust to 18-inch wire-spoke wheels, the 2020 Royal Enfield INT650 provides classic character in an approachable standard motorcycle. While the marketing material shows this bike riding along the California coast—hinting at the target audience of youthful road trip warriors—the plucky 648cc parallel twin can fit in anywhere the daily grind may take you: country back roads, urban sprawl, or freeway stretches. Features like the assist and slipper clutch and ABS (front and rear) aid newer riders, but the parallel twin and two-piston floating ByBre caliper can provide reasonable power and stopping power for more experienced riders.

2020 Royal Enfield Continental GT

The Royal Enfield Continental GT draws inspiration from the café racers and culture from the 1950s and ’60s—that much should be obvious from its profile consisting of clip-on bars, double cradle frame, twin shocks, and air-/liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine. What may not be so obvious is this motorcycle’s chassis is well balanced and stable while the engine produces plentiful low-end torque. Whether riding your favorite canyon roads or taking the tightest street corners, beginner or novice riders will have fun tucking in aboard this vintage-styled machine.

2019 Royal Enfield INT650

2020 Triumph Street Twin .
The Triumph Street Twin is a 900cc parallel-twin-powered standard motorcycle that is one of Triumph’s best-selling modern classics. From our 2019 coverage, “The reason for its success, Triumph says, is a mix of entry-level price (for the British brand at least), classic looks, and easy demeanor.” This 2016-introduced ride includes features like Brembo four-piston front brake, two riding modes (Rain and Road), ABS and traction control, LED rear light, torque assist clutch, cast aluminum spoked wheels, ride by wire, USB charging socket under the seat, and an immobilizer (transponder in the key) for extra security.
