Some markets will receive the new Interceptor and Continental GT 650 Twins but India might have to wait a few extra months for sale and deliveries to start.

Royal Enfield took the wraps off the new Interceptor 650 Twin and the Continental GT 650 at the EICMA 2017. The most anticipated bike of the year, the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 Twin and Continental GT 650 Twin are a mix of neo-retro styling married to an all-new 650cc, parallel twin that was showcased just days earlier at the Royal Enfield UK Technical Centre at Bruntingthrope, UK. The character of the engine (see box) was one of the main focus areas says Royal Enfield. The fuel injected, air/oil-cooled motor produces 47PS at 7,100rpm and 52 Nm at 4,000rpm and is mated to a six-speed gearbox.
