Royal Enfield Showcases Customized Himalayan & Continental GT 650

Royal Enfield recently showcased three different custom models based on the Continental GT 650 and Himalayan at Bike Shed London. It is one of the UK’s biggest custom bike shows. The two models based on the GT650 are keeping the cafe racer profile alive while Himalayan has turned into an entirely different beach tracker. The details regarding the engine were not shared for any of the examples while one can expect performance boost through the use of lightweight parts and custom exhaust systems with exciting muffler positions. The RE Himalayan now comes with an extra-wide rear tire with custom alloy wheel, USD front forks with a golden finish and four-piece headlight with a negligible windscreen.

The cafe racer options are painted in two different themes, with the first one showing bright paint with dual tone body finish. The rear half is mostly single tone while the front comes with a shade of red and dark patches as the pattern. The motorcycle now features a wind-protection cowl and fairing can be seen flowing gently to the engine area. The retro-modern appeal is further compensated by the USD golden forks and spoke wheels.

The second Continental GT 650 is black-themed and available with additional disc brakes, massive dual exhausts on the one side and futuristic tail area with a unique design. The front forks are finished in Black while the rear area seems empty due to the thin seat. The 648cc, twin cylinder engine on the motorcycle is good for 52 Nm of torque while Himalayan is using 411cc, single cylinder engine with 32 Nm of torque output.

Most Popular Answers for Continental GT
Which one is better between Honda CB350RS or the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650?
2023-09-19 05:34:53 AM

Both the bikes are good in their own forte. the CB350RS seems like a bit of a missed opportunity from Honda. It could have used the capable foundations of the H’ness to create a more unique motorcycle with a more well-defined identity that would’ve appealed to an entirely new and different audience. Instead, it’s taken this middle-of-the-road approach and created a halfway house that we find hard to recommend to anyone except museum curators. On the other hand, the Continental GT 650 is a fun-to-ride cafe racer. The GT’s sporty riding position makes it much more suitable for twisty mountain roads and even high-speed straight-line blasts. To top things off, the twin-cylinder motor provides the performance and refinement that the 535 simply couldn’t.

Checking the engine oil level in your Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 is easy and only takes a few minutes. Firstly, you will need to locate the oil dipstick. This can be found on the right side of the engine block. Once you have located the dipstick, pull it out and wipe off the excess oil on the dipstick with a paper towel. Once it is clean, re-insert the dipstick and then pull it out again. This will give you a more accurate reading of your oil level. If the oil level is between the two marks on the dipstick, then your oil level is good. However, if it is below the lower mark, then you should add more oil to your engine.
