    Title: "Royal Enfield GT

    Cylinder bikes 

    What is it? a nod to the stripped-down cafe racers that zipped around london in the 1960s, The 2021 royal enfield continental gt 650 is a new bike with throwback style and a warmly rumbling heart — an air-cooled, 648cc parallel twin engine.Is it new?yup, But it’s been in the works for a minute.Royal enfield announced its first twin-cylinder bikes since 1970 — the int 650 and the continental gt 650 — in the fall of 2018.The third editions of both bikes hit dealers this past fall, And we finally got some seat time in november 2020.What makes it special?if i may be shallow for a moment, One thing that really stands out about this bike: its looks.The compact curves, Bubbly gas tank and shiny chrome are simultaneously gorgeous and delightfully retro.They combine to recall a simpler time, When we didn’t need fancy electronics, Touchscreens and gps to saddle up and hit the open road.You know a bike has nailed that vibe when multiple people ask how old your bike is — and are gobsmacked when you tell them it’s new.

    Thrilling Performance with Classic Elegance 

    " The Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 combines amazing dynamics with classical styling to bring to the motorcyclist the best of the two worlds. Customers fall in love with the parallel-twin performance engine that powers a dynamic ride in both the thick city traffic and along all open roads. The cafe racer style, paired with the addition of dual-channel ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) contributes to a biker being hit by a simple yet beautiful bike. Nevertheless a minority of supporters note the shortcomings with the seat comfort for the trips that take too long and recommend a faster improvement in suspension tuning for a softer ride."

Talking about the safety it provides disc brakes on both the front and rear wheels provide strong stopping power.

    power no doubt, but looks is just ok 

    " The Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 is magnificently charismatic and attractive as ever, this motorcycle deserves a high note from riders. By torquey parallel twin engine, the bike proves having a truthful nature of such patterns, among them is playful at rough and accords the rider with a comfy and enjoyable experience. The people earn laurels for the instrument because of its good seating, retro design, and both dual-channel ABS and slipper clutch, which are modern. Nevertheless, some riders point out that vibrations at higher speeds need to be addressed and propose fuel-efficiency enhancements for longer trips. Follow-up: Ensuring that these issues get resolved should be a priority for manufacturers if they want to ensure that these vehicles gain a wide acceptance and commercial use."
