Is Bear 650 really the Best Royal Enfield? I rode them all to find out

VIDEO DESCRIPTION
I test rode and Compared Royal Enfield Bear 650 with Interceptor 650, Continental GT 650, Super Meteor 650 and Shotgun 650 to pick the best one especially for riding in the US, UK, Australia and other western countries. I compared them on Performance, Prices, Fuel Efficiency, Accessories, exhaust notes, suspension, brakes, tires, reliability and maintenance among other things.
