Pros and Cons in comparison
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.
Yamaha XV 950 R 2014
Visually, the Yamaha XV950R does everything right - it stands out from the wide variety of cruisers with its sporty touch. In riding, however, it does not stand out significantly from the competition. The XV950R also has the usual problem with low lean angle clearance, which is not helped by the firmer tuning of the chassis.
