An Australian outlet has published a test ride review of the new 650cc version of Royal Enfield's iconic 'Bullet' nameplate. The Bullet name traces its history back to the 1930s. The review describes the new Bullet 650 as carrying that traditional badge into the modern era, with comfort, performance and braking suited to contemporary riding.

Just hearing the Bullet is becoming a 650 already has me reacting. Against the traditional single-cylinder lineage, this time it's carrying a parallel-twin 650. Even with the same nameplate, I'm dying to line up the spec sheets and compare exactly how the design philosophy underneath has been updated.

I'd like to compare it against other test rides too, in case the reviews differ between Australia and the UK.

If comfort is factored into the review too, it sounds like it could hold up well on a long tour.

It's genuinely impressive that a nameplate running over 90 years is still active with new models today.

Since it says it has modern braking power, it's probably evolved from the old-school drum brakes.

The move to disc brakes was already well underway before, so it's probably been strengthened further on the 650.

Hearing it again, the history going back to the 1930s really gives the Bullet a whole different level of weight.

That balance of preserving tradition while matching modern performance—Royal Enfield really is skilled at pulling that off.
