Scramblers, unlike sports bikes, adventure motorcycles, and street nakeds, were never designed from scratch. Historically, they were lighter, mildly stripped down, and more off-road friendly versions of street bikes.

Bear 650 is the 5th 650cc platform motorcycle from Royal Enfield - First four being INT 650, Conti 650, Super Meteor 650 and Shotgun 650

Considering it’s a scrambler, the INT Bear 650 also gets a slightly longer suspension travel with more ground clearance and a higher seat height. Royal Enfield has also fine-tuned the ergonomics. The handlebars sit on risers, and the footpegs are slightly forward-set for a more upright, elbows-up stance compared to the Interceptor 650.
