The updated Continental GT 650 takes its inspiration from the 1970s era of British motorcycling, with its cast alloy wheels and blacked-out aesthetic. Alongside its classically-styled, ‘50s and ‘60s-inspired predecessors, it recaptures the spirit of the cafe racer culture of the time and that of our own Continental GT 250. With its sculpted tank, eager attitude and tucked-in riding position, it carries all the hallmarks of a traditional café racer, making it perfect for carving up the back roads or having a ton of fun in the city.
The new, all-black Continental GT 650 streamlines the retro café racer with its subtle yet stylish aesthetic. The blacked-out engine and exhaust fuse seamlessly with the machine’s chassis, keeping the spotlight on its tank for a look that is guaranteed to make hearts race and heads turn.
The GT 650 showcases Royal Enfield's legendary parallel twin-cylinder engine, backed with an air/oil-cooled parallel twin configuration. The 648cc engine offers 47 horsepower at 7150 RPM and a maximum of 52 Nm of torque at 5250 RPM. A smooth throttle response throughout the rev range ensures sufficient power to make light work of the city traffic or carve up the corners.
