Royal Enfield Continental GT Cafe Racer 500 Price in India : Rs.1,50,000/- Expected
Royal Enfield Continental GT Cafe Racer 500 Mileage : *Approx 30 km/PL
Royal Enfield’s highly awaited and their first ever performance CafĂ© Racer motorcycle, was spotted testing recently in Karnataka. This bike will called the Continental GT, has been quite a hit at the 2012 Indian Auto Expo where it was showcased last year with the public has showing quite an interest in it

















The production version of-course does have a lot of changes to the original version displayed at the Auto Expo 2012 making it a more affordable version. Yes, some would complain that it has lost a bit of its classic sheen and the final or shall we say ‘almost’ final version we see here is still a pretty good looking package and will appeal to a large variety of people.
There are of-course some changes in the production version from the concept you see here in the photographs. The Ohlins suspension at the rear will be replaced with a more cost efficient one from Paoli and adjustable rear seats are added. The engine on the Royal Enfield Cafe Racer would be powered by a single cylinder 535cc Unit Construction Engine (UCE). Although the existing 500cc engine on other Royal Enfield models put out a rather low peak power, the Cafe Racer engine with its slightly higher capacity is expected to have a engine tuned for better power in the range of 34BHP. Key features apart from the obvious Cafe Racer design include Brembo brakes, clip on bars, dual instrumentation, bar end mirrors, rear sets, 7″ factory headlamp and a tuned race pipe.
