Built for Off-Road Capability
To reinforce its scrambler persona, the Bear 650 is equipped with switchable ABS, allowing the rear ABS to be turned off for better handling on uneven surfaces. This feature provides the Bear 650 with a notable advantage in off-road conditions compared to the Interceptor 650.
Performance and Design Updates
Powered by a 648cc twin-cylinder engine, the Bear 650 produces 47.4PS at 7,150rpm and 56.5Nm at 5,150rpm, offering a slightly higher torque output than the Interceptor. The introduction of an inverted fork at the front replaces the Interceptor’s telescopic fork, improving stability and handling.
