There's a special kind of excitement to watching something go from concept to reality right in front of your eyes, isn't there? Back in 2021, Royal Enfield showed up to EICMA, the single biggest international motorcycle event of the year, to show off its latest creation. Known as the SG650, the concept did what good concepts tend to do: Got people talking about it.
It was an auspicious debut. Pretty soon, it became clear that the SG650 was less the type of concept to solely grace posters on walls and more the sort that grows a chassis and an engine and starts to generate spark in three dimensions.
