Will be available in two colourways
Aside from that, it gains a new USB port, allowing the rider to charge their mobile device while driving. It has new leverages as well. The Black Ray and Barcelona Blue colorways of the Interceptor 650 are now available. Slipstream Blue and Apex Gray paint schemes are available for the Continental GT 650. There are also black-out elements in this. Its engine casing, head, and exhaust pipe have all been blacked out.
What are the major changes?
However, the most significant change made by the brand is the addition of alloy wheels. Customers have been requesting alloy wheels since the 650 Twins were first introduced. Until now, the motorcycle was only available with spoked rims and tube-type tyres. If a person is punctured in such a situation, it is extremely difficult to heal.
What to expect now from Royal Enfield Motorcycle?
Both of these bikes are due for an update. When it is released in India, the motorcycle will be OBD2 compliant. The 648cc air-oil cooled parallel-twin engine will remain standard. It will continue to produce 47bhp and 52Nm of peak torque. The transmission in use is a 6-speed unit with a slip and assist clutch.
