Royal Enfield Continental GT 450

Introduction

• The upcoming Royal Enfield Continental 450 is a café-racer model with a 450cc engine.
• In fact, Royal Enfield’s 450cc platform will bring in many motorcycles along with this model.
• The 450 will join the 650 in the Continental GT brand of motorcycles.

Features & Equipment

• We can expect the Continental 450 to look identical to the existing GT 650.
• This means the styling clues will include the café-racer-inspired design.
• As a result, it will be a single-seater motorcycle with only the rider's seat.
• Moreover, clip-on handlebars are then a given.
• Then, the equipment list will include LED lighting, dual-channel ABS, and a Tripper Navigation system.
• It would be interesting to see if RE provides a semi-fairing as an optional accessory.
• On the suspension front, we can expect the GT450 to get telescopic front forks and a rear mono-shock.

Engine & Gearbox

• The new RE Continental GT 450 is expected to use the brand's single-cylinder engine.
• This will be a liquid-cooled setup though.
• And like the Himalayan 450, it could produce 40bhp of power and torque figures.

Other Upcoming Royal Enfield Models are the Himalayan 750, E Himalayan and Flying Flea S6 Scrambler
