Royal Enfield's electric sub-brand, Flying Flea, has begun delivering its first electric motorcycle, the FF.C6, to customers. The long-anticipated entry into EVs by the storied Indian brand has finally become reality.
The Royal Enfield we know, releasing an electric bike, has me unable to stop being excited even before I've seen the spec sheet. A design that fits an electric powertrain into a classic look is exactly the part that gets me. I'm genuinely curious what kind of ride quality they've aimed for compared to a conventional engine bike.

Is 'Flying Flea' an old model name?
It's the name of a lightweight airborne bike from the war era, a classy revival.
The issue is price. Their strength is being cheap, so can they keep that up going electric?
Even with a storied name, if the price is hobbyist-only territory it just won't sell in the end.
Is there really a crowd asking Enfield for an EV? That thump is the whole selling point.
An Enfield with zero thump is a whole different thing, splitting it off as its own brand was the right call.
For a classic-focused brand to put out an EV feels like a meaningful step.
An air-cooled single-cylinder company doing an EV, huh. Sign of the times, though I don't hate it.
Enfield's EV finally getting delivered. 'Flying Flea' is such a cool name.
