Royal Enfield 650 Twin engine quality matches German makes

The Italian stallions do have a reputation but I'm pleasantly surprised by RE here.

BHPian thebengalee recently shared this with others.

The brand new Fortnine video shows the results of an independent lab testing the concentration of particulates in the engine oil of brand new engines. Royal Enfield ranks toe to toe with BMW. Bringing up the rear are Ducati, Aprilia, and Yin Xiang (a Chinese make). The Italian stallions do have a reputation but I'm pleasantly surprised by RE here. Well done, Team Chennai.

Here's what BHPian rarkit had to say on the matter:

It is already mentioned in the video but I would like to reiterate that the sample size was 1 for every company. While it is less likely that the results are wrong for every bike in the list it is highly likely that at least one bike may not be what these results suggest. Also riders style may matter a lot.
