  • The Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 has blown away the Indian motorist with its amazing value for money proposition and drop dead gorgeous looks. The 650cc Parallel Twin found in the Continental GT 650 is an absolute peach of a motor, the way the motor grumbles and roars is so rustic and analogue. Even though it looks old and retro, the Continental 650 is the most modern Royal Enfield motorcycle on sale today. It has many features like Dual Channel ABS, dual cradle framework and much more that makes it very safe and confidence inspiring to ride. Watch the video to find out more!

      Believe me as an owner, electronics will destroy bikes feel and soul......my friend has bought Ktm adv 390 and he says the electronic rob the feel of riding as all the errors are mostly corrected by traction control and that leads to a bad rider....ride new Duke 390(with TC and Quick shift up and down) and then ride 650 twins........and then let me know which is more engaging..... believe me you will fall in love with the character of this bike.....its just raw pure connection to the machine and nothing else.........feels surreal.

    Forgot one major con for this Conti. No Tubeless tyres nor alloys for 2.8 L ex-showroom. Being a legend more than 5 decades, RE failed to give it as at-least an option for their flag ship motorcycles. Literally the BS6 is for the change of cat-con for cleaner emission.

    • @TheDriversHub
      @TheDriversHub  Před 4 lety +2

      Yes, maybe tubeless was a needed upgrade, but alloys will just make the bike lose its overall look. The spoked rims look really nice and retro on our opinion.

    Getting the Delivery of My Continental GT 650 today. The Stock Tyres have been changed to Ceat Zoom Cruz F by the company which are clearly a downgrade. After few days of conversations with the customer service they said that the tyres have been changed (Clearly the Advertising of Pirelli Tyres is a misinformation now) and after asking for the compensation for the price difference in price of tyres they said that there would be no compensation as there is no Mandate or promise given by the company to provide Pirelli tyres only. The attitude of the showroom is also quite bad. They said "Lena ho toh bata do nahi toh dusre log wait kar hi rahe hain lene k liye" (New Kind of Dadagiri). So basically if tomorrow they say that now we have changed the chassis also from Harris performance to some local Manufacturer or Bybre Break with something local, while keeping the price of the bike same, we as common consumers won't be able to do a thing. Highly Disappointed with this attitude of the "Highly Esteemed" Bike Manufacturer.

      Their thickness is not adequate compared to other tires
      A small sharp object can punture it easily ( experienced this 3 days ago )
      I will myself move to Michelin after my current tires wear out

    Cool insights. But where are the riding gloves and knee pads?
    A helmet can do an aviator's job. Also a leather jacket will not protect you because of the lack of protection. So both are pointless, imo.
    We Indians shell out on the toy but overlook protection. Ah, hoping for the days where protection takes precedence over the machine.

      No it wont, i am 6 and 90kgs of muscle and fat (😅) it looks better on me that other 5.5 ft skinny ass MFs.😅😅
      But be serious on buying it as i came from riding my Apache 310 and friends rc390 all the time......the continental's clip-ons feels aggressive compared to Apache 310 rr's clip-ons but are relaxed compared to RC 390s clip-ons.
      It is especially tiering because the bike is heavy and turning handle at slow speeds is very very very heavy as compared to RC or Apache
      If you come from upright positioned bikes better go for interceptor 650 and add footrest extension kit by indimoto.
      (Interceptor has bad footpeg position)
      Also remember company stated fuel economy is 28kmpl but bike can do 32kmpl if ridden nicely on highway but in city company claimed 21kmpl falls apart and my bike churns out 14-18 kmpl in traffic.(that too if ridden lovingly)
