Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 2018

Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 2018

Visually, the new Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 is closely related to its single-cylinder sister Continental GT 535, but technically it takes a huge step forward. The parallel twin-cylinder engine with 48 hp and 53 Newton metres of torque is lively and refined, the handling is surprisingly stable and the brakes are also convincing. Electronic features are in vain, but the wonderful cafe racer look remains absolutely authentic. The price should also be set so low in Europe that Royal Enfield should no longer be a quirky exotic.

Agile and refined powerplant

cool two-cylinder sound

comfortable seating position

stable handling

good brakes

wonderful old school look

reasonable price

classic round instruments.

ABS not quite sensitive, no electronic features - in case anyone needs them...
