Royal Enfield started the Continental GT Cup in 2021 to make track racing more accessible to both newcomers and experienced riders. Those who make it to the grid will race on GT-R650 motorcycles, built to identical specifications to put rider skill at the forefront.

2025 Royal Enfield Continental GT Cup registrations

Selection to be held at eight venues

The Royal Enfield GT Cup provides an opportunity for Royal Enfield owners to race on track as well. The only criterion is a valid driving license. The participants can register in either the professional or amateur category based on their skill set and eligibility. 

At each location, the shortlisted riders will get access to a track for two days. Day 1 will consist of training with expert riders from the Royal Enfield Track School, and Day 2 will be reserved for selections based on the lap times of each rider. 

Royal Enfield will continue with its Pro-Am format that essentially gives amateur riders a chance to compete with professional ones. Also returning is the Twin-Power Trophy. In this series, each pro rider will be paired with an amateur rider to form a team, giving rookies an opportunity to learn from the professional racers.
