Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 specifications

The Continental GT 650 is a cafe-racer styled motorcycle built around a 648cc parallel-twin engine paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox and an assist-and-slipper clutch. Cafe-racer ergonomics define the riding position: clip-on handlebars, rear-set footpegs and a teardrop-shaped 12.5-litre fuel tank. Dual-channel ABS is standard across all three variants.
 

Where the specification sheet genuinely changes is at the wheels and tyres, tied directly to paint choice rather than to model or trim level. Only two of the five colours, Slipstream Blue and Apex Grey, come with alloy wheels and tubeless tyres; the other three, British Racing Green, Mr Clean and Rocker Red, retain traditional spoke wheels and tubed tyres. Selected colours also gained an LED headlight and aluminium switch cubes in a running update.
 

On the road, Autocar India's review describes the handling as largely composed and communicative under all sorts of situations. The softer suspension introduced after the BS6 update robs the bike of some of its natural agility, and the stock seat turns uncomfortable on longer rides.
