2024 ROYAL ENFIELD CONTINENTAL GT 650: MR CLEAN

Considered the fastest growing motorcycle company in the world, Royal Enfield has released a sexy, cafe style motorcycle for 2024. The Royal Enfield Continental GT sports retro-inspired instrumentation, premium finishes and exudes timeless elegance. But, is it enough in the modern world? Is it really underpowered or pure motorcycling simplicity in a complicated landscape of motorcycles?

I have been riding this bike for a few days now and while it won't replace my Triumph, I am quite blown away by how much fun this bike is!!!

[@user-rk2nc8fg5t]

Спасибо за обзор я тоже люблю и обожаю мотоциклы и очень рад за Индию за то что постоянно совершенству ют мототехнику особенно роял энфилд знаменитая английская марка спасибо вам

I knew you would enjoy it :)

Not every bike has to be balls to the wall in terms of performance. I personally own a Royal Enfield Continental GT 650, and out of the bikes I have owned and ridden and yes even raced, this bike stands as a testament of elegance and grace in a modern motorcycle, that's affordable, and says something about it's rider. I am 67, and have been riding and racing motorcycles since 1968, and will never trade or give up my steed, the Royal Enfield GT 650, it's that great a bike. Think of it as art in motion my friend! 🏁🏁First on race day!

You are legend

[@ThePoisonDrummer]

You are 100% right on!

[@SeanMurphy00]

I’ve never owned a Royal Enfield but I admire/appreciate their efforts in making a line of cycles that are financially accessible to just about anyone. I’ve heard nothing but good things about the quality to price value as well.

[@TheHuckster100]

After not riding for 40(!) years I bought an RE Interceptor last year and I absolutely love it! So far, over 4000 trouble-free miles, and yes, I changed out the exhaust and the sounds is fantastic!

[@ThePoisonDrummer]

I have heard really good things about them!

[@nottheone1357]

I did the exact same thing but turned mine into a scrambler to ride forest fire roads. I just hit 4000 also but I did have the tip sensor give me trouble.

[@TheHuckster100]

@@nottheone1357That's awesome!

[@captaindoof9482]

I bought a Royal Enfield Continental Gt a little over a year ago, the same color in the video (Mr Clean). Added bar end mirrors, a single leather seat with cowl and some scorpion slip ons. It's such a fun retro style bike.

[@dragnar4743]

It's not fast as a sports bike, because it's not a sports bike. It's only purpose is to take you back in time, the feel and sound of this bike is just....💛💛

[@kevindarkstar]

It's not a sports machine, it's a time machine 😊

[@heritagehillsecurity8778]

Poetically accurate.

[@GaryShellberg]

I own a Triumph and a Royal Enfield, love 'em both. Enfield has come a long way the last few years !

[@gary1477]

I just bought a Royal Enfield Continental GT650 in Rocker Red. I think it looks beautiful.

[@knottytoob]

Oooh that thing is sweet esp. in that color scheme. Ride on brother.

[@knottytoob]

RE, BSA, Norton are all owned by Indian MC cos. :) Triumph-Bajaj is the latest venture w another motor behemoth from India. Interesting for sure but even gladder that they've kept these iconic brands alive. Might I add, for the better. Certainly seems that way and definitely rooting for the 'best is yet to come.'

[@cwTheDrummist]

Perfect timing! I was just talking to a buddy about Royal Enfield. Great video as always! 🤘

[@RenoLaringo]

One of the most beautiful engines out there.

[@blackskunk9034]

Oh yes, absolutely

[@stevepen]

Cool cruiser and I love the vintage vibe. And as always thanks for the chill honest review/content.

[@filipvrijders7994]

Nice video. I am riding since ‘87. I have a GT since 2021. It is the first bike ever that will stay. The most fun bike I ever had and I still love it as much as 3 years ago. Just put your mind back in the 60’s when you ride this: fun fun😂 Some people think only in horsepower. When they ask me how much HP, I answer 235 a ton (1000kg)😂 47 on 200kg. Just use every horse you need😊

[@nottheone1357]

I lived in Castaic for 25 years (where this was filmed) and when RE came out with the Interceptor and the GT in 2018 I immediately wanted one but riding on LA freeways isn't fun. I moved to Idaho with miles of mountain roads minutes away so I bought the Interceptor, turned it into a scrambler and ride it on forest fire roads. They are both great bikes.

[@adityavarma4415]

Love ❤️ from India 🇮🇳

[@jasonclack6170]

I've got one, Cam, power commander, filter and Verex pipes. It fly's and getting around 55 bhp at the rear wheel 😁

[@blackskunk9034]

Just ordered one to go with the INT650. Absolute blast. Great video.

I have one since 2019 March. Very Good VFM. Nice bikes. Nice feel. ❤

[@fleptorabrady9220]

ive a classic 350, GB grey. I love it. it needs 10 more horses to be the perfect bike which is why ill have to size up. but the looks and compliments i get. I just love it.

[@stanleyknife1967]

I think you summed it up pretty well.

[@timrachelmortenson6821]

Looks like a Sunday afternoon cruise type of bike. which is perfect for my needs.

[@ThePoisonDrummer]

Perfect for that.

[@Jackie_Rosewood]

Looks so classic and fun!!! I have a 2007 Honda CBR1000RR Repsol and I want to get something a little more like Sunday cruising and this looks awesome!! Thank you for sharing!!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@slimturnpike]

Well done. I've had an Enfield Interceptor 650 for five years and love it

[@blrmotorcyclesinc.]

Nice review video 👍 do try to review the Royal Enfield Classic 350 too, its got a different character and charm of its own.Cheers

Nice job, Rikki!

[@poisonfan1979]

Nice man I like it thanks for the video 😁

[@heritagehillsecurity8778]

Thank you for doing the ride review. The Royal Enfield price point is difficult to match. It is a beautiful motorcycle and there are many options to personalize it. I would really like it if your friend, offered for you to ride a RE Classic 350, then a RE Meteor 359, and share your thoughts. I really think you would enjoy doing it.And it would be viewed by many the world over. Thank you, be safe, and rock on. Edward C. in irvine, CA.

[@r.m7921]

Ain't nothing but a good time on an Enfield

[@SeanDuranMusic]

You never said the price... because I was looking at the Kawasaki Ninja 400... and I've only seen good things about it and their price at about 5k. They say the 650 is nothing like the 400. The fun, the excitement that you get from the 400. I've had 2 Yamaha 400, but started on a 250 rebel.

[@ThePoisonDrummer]

They are lows 7's OTD.

[@SeanDuranMusic]

@@ThePoisonDrummer thanks, café bikes have been in for awhile, that and bobbers. A stupid kid wanted to race me with his slow bobber, he was trying to do a burn out in front of my house, the thing was so under powered he couldn't even get it to spin. I have a s-10 V8 that does 0-60 4 sec and he was thinking it was going to be a race. I think I told him to come back when he has something faster. LOL.

[@robmackenzie8478]

bought interceptor bout a yr ago, great wee bike love it, had aftermarket cans when I got it, sounds awesome, fitted a wee screen and the best thing I did was fitted a 16 tooth sprocket to the front, makes a massive difference on highway.

[@stevef8065]

Great honest review…..I like your style. More reviews please

Own one myself and you described it very well... Excellent review 👍

[@MaryanneLeuschner]

Oh by the way Bro.. are you still making custom drums ?

[@CharlieHernandez-zy4ci]

I’ve looked into the Enfield 300 , looks very similar to the one you are reviewing.

[@thefredster__]

HELL YEAH DUDE

[@keithtarrier4558]

Cool!

[@jamesschneider3828]

My first bigger bike was a 1970 BSA 650 Thunderbolt. If I could still ride I would have an Interceptor. This bike is cool styling but I would prefer not having to lean over to grab the handlebar.

[@ralfybaby]

I sat on one at a dealership in New Jersey. the lean is very minor. Just about perfect in fact. At 6'2" and 245lbs I feel that I am a bit too big for it though .... although some ride a RE that are quite a bit bigger than i am.

[@danholmes1673]

Loving the bike reviews Rikki, especially these Royal Enfield ones. Toying with trading my 2005 Triumph Speedmaster for an enfield, just can't decide which model!!!

[@user-nc8rp4uc2v]

Lovely bike but I love the triumph bikes myself

[@sabyasaci]

Reasonably priced... So true...not cheap....

[@BlackdogADV]

I’m a Ducati, KTM, Husqvarna and bmw guy and I just bought a new Interceptor 650. I’m doing a Scrambler conversion on it with semi knobby tires and much more. These engines are over built and can handle a 865cc big bore kit without problems.

[@jangles1839]

Reminds me of a Honda 750 (I believe) that's so popular

[@MrTwangstaable]

Love poison, love royal Enfield, thisbis great.

[@thomasholtkamp9904]

would be awesome if someone made a hardtail chopper kit for this. Always thought the choppers looked cool with parallel twins instead of a v twin. then again they would look cool to me with a bmw airhead engine too

[@jbfinishingsjellebilliau9054]

I have a honda rc42,the royal enfield is next on my list😎

[@coition9976]

How long has that dealer been there? When I lived in that area around 2007 Saugus’s Suzuki, and Santa Clarita Motorsports were the bike places.

[@peterfritzphoto]

Royal Enfield’s bikes are super appealing. When did you get into video and photography, Rikki?

[@ThePoisonDrummer]

Started on film in high school in a photography class. When I was able to afford something I got a canon Rebel and went to town! My how times have changed.

[@peterfritzphoto]

@@ThePoisonDrummer Yep, that’s a while ago. Ditto for me - film from the age of 12. I’m 56, now, and loving it as much as ever, but video has me hooked, now, too. I especially love coming up with unique ways to shoot action car vids.

[@frankmarkovcijr5459]

I have had my Triumph Tr-6 with a hard tail and magneto for 40 years. RE650 should have hydraulic valve adjustment and belt drive. My Sportster does, and all l do is change the fluids and filter.Belts last 100,000+ miles or more . The RE 650 was never made on British tooling. The old RE 350 pre unit singles were built on old worn out tooling.

[@ThePoisonDrummer]

100% correct!

[@Lee-70ish]

Performance? Nope High tech ? Nope Soul? Off the scale Character? Off the scale Retro? This and the 350 classic unbeatable. Pure biking no modes no fancy shit.

[@slowg8701]

They make big bore kits like an 865 or similar for them.

[@mockbattles]

Fly screen. S&S pipes. Stadium bar end mirrors.

[@jenniferanne4143]

A little off topic but, just wondering if you ever did the Love Ride. One of the guys in our club (Road Agents mc Detroit) named Squire (r.i.p.), used to always do the Love Ride every year out there. I rode to Arizona last summer as my farthest trip last year. From spring to fall I take a pretty good trip cross country somewhere about once a month. East, South, North, West...

[@jenniferanne4143]

This year is Kansas City MO, Sturgis SD, Nashville TN, Myrtle Beach SC, Orlando FL, cant remember where else, have to check my reservations, lol rock on Rikki ride hard

[@ThePoisonDrummer]

Yes. I have done the Love ride many times.

Check out the Classic 350 ! You will fall in love with it

[@BillMulholland1]

[@bryanjackson405]

I'm waiting for Norton to hopefully bring the Commando here to the states. I love the cafe racer style. Thought about building my own...but really dont have the time. Nothing else out there really interest me other than the Commando. I'm too old for the sport bike thing....been there done that. Harley - Fatboy and Indian Bobber are way over priced. Paying for the name! Triumph doesnt make anything that interest me.

[@jenniferanne4143]

Cool bike, I'll keep my Harley though, its much nicer, but i always loved the old British bikes triumph norton bsa royal enfield matchless vincent ..etc,... Had a 1971 Tiger 750.

[@MaryanneLeuschner]

it looks like a great bike .. yet after having a custom harley when I was 16 and then ditching it on the highway during the winter.. on the highway doing 60mph luckily I did not kill myself of the bike... hit black ice.. hell no one told me you are not suppose to ride a bike in the winter.. but needless to say have not been on a bike since and I am 55 now.

This is not 2024 model it is 2023 model I have also the same bike which I got in november 2023

[@jez6208]

All royal enfield bikes are totally different to the old ones. I don't think there's any dies or moulds etc used. Oldest motorcycle company in the world. Never went out of production. They built a factory in India in the 50's became it made more sense than exporting them. When R E went under in the late 60's/ early 70's, enfield India kept going. All the models from the last 5 or so years are totally new and different. Designed in England, built in India. Unbeatable for the price. 3 year unlimited mileage warranty. Can't go wrong. I didn't, I own one. 100 smiles per gallon. Easy! 😂😊

[@TheMaskedheel]

Don’t get why that guy wants to buy it if he wants to up the power. I own one. If I wanted something more powerful I would have gotten a Triumph.

[@rtatro8450]

Does it come with a free pair of hiking boots? 😁

[@shree397]

Yes, the bike is Indian, but it is inspired by British Cafe racers, hence it is called a cafe racer😅

[@barrydaly7174]

Can it do 3 figures easily? Yes it can . would you want to take it to the track? No you wouldn't. Does it make you feel good? Yes it does. Does it look beautiful ? Yes it does.... Top trumps BHP is juvenile BS IMO and misses the point of the real world Motorcycle experience.
