Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 Price in Bishnupur

This is an honest review of the new continental Gt 650 (2023 Model) and I have not preferred any brand while writing this review. This review is for all, basically, a family man who needs a powerful but not a Chapri kind of bike. As belong to a middle-class family, a person does want to drive a powerful bike with a good road presence(you can say a superbike) but to afford it, is not a pocket-friendly matter. At that moment Royal Enfield offers you the Cont. GT 650. I have researched for over 6 months about which bike to own. First I looked for another bike from the 650 segment with a two-cylinder engine setup, but three things prevented me from buying it, 1. cost of the bike 2. Pillion sit height 3. Maintenance cost. Being a husband my wife and being a father my daughter does not like the (KTM kind of) heavily elevated pillion seat. So I need to look for the low-height pillion sit option, with plenty amount of power. By noting all the points I consider this bike. Though it is a naked cafe racer ( As earlier, I only like sports kinds of Motorcycles) it attracts me because of its road presence and chunky powerful engine and comfortable single pillion seat. Yes, still in 2023, it does have good public attention. I do Sunday rides with a group of people and trust me it has respect on the Road. Now comes to some pros and Cons.
Pros:
1. The power, it is easy to cross 100 km/hr even if you do not notice it when it crosses the speed
2. it has a really good Road presence
3. New tubeless tyres are really good
4. Dual Channel ABS is working so that you have more confidence while breaking
5. you can have a superbike kind of feeling while riding it
6. Smooth Double Cylinder engine it offers within this cost ( on the road is 450000)
Cons:
1. Before 1st servicing it gives you only 10-11 km/l mileage after that max to 25 km/l which I think would be better as the Honda 650 gives the same mileage with 4 cylinders.
2. The engine hits too much, but after servicing it will get down but not that much.
3. Instrument Cluster may have more information with its round classic looking style
4. Should have a double stand, which you miss, at the time of oil changing
5. Nowadays even low-budget bikes offer LED tail and indicators, which also misses
6. The rear tyre shall have at least 140 sections ( currently it is 130 sections)
7. And last but not least the weight. I am 6ft in height with a weight of 85 kg still, I have to fight to handle it while the bike is parked.

About the Reviewer

It's a great and budget-friendly cafe racer bike that is very popular on road trips and also local riding, the way of looking royal enfield continental GT650 is a killer machine, a nice overall, and the shifting gear and road task is way better than other bikes, but problem is pillion, it is a single riding cafe racer bike, fine with the 650 cc machine but royal Enfield manufacturer need to set them as soon as possible and remanufacture a safe and comfortable bike to be the best cafe racer bike and that will be really happened I guess

About the Reviewer

Very satisfied. I'm long tour on this bike 440 km in 1 day. but no issue. the bike handles better. and the retro look is so attractive. The road reactions are so nice. the bike sound is very good, and you can change the exhaust, red rooster bass is very beautiful. but engine heat very short time.so you can buy this bike and every day ride this bike.
