Hats off to Royal Enfield for building a bike that I actually would like to own. First new bike I've had any interest in for a LONG time.

I feel exactly the same way. I have been looking for a nuts & bolts bike for years.

Royal Enfield has been knocking it out of the park recently. Super excited to see what they will continue to turn out in the future.

Royal ENFIELD brought 2 of these bikes to bikeshed fest and absolutely wiped the floor with everything. Great chatting to the guys on the film after the race too. Great work lads, an awesome looking and performing machine!

Yes they did,However it sorta helped having two ex GP riders ride them, against first timers.I watched as Paul Young, got off his bike and ran to the pits before he was recognised.I did though.

I thought your comment was a joke. That's really amazing that the Royal Enfields did so good, considering they aren't cheating with a giant engine or a 4 cylinder engine. They are only running 58 or 59 horsepower (I think?).

It should be a production model as soon as possible.

These bikes makes me sentimental and takes me back to those incredible exciting 60s and 70s when I started riding bikes! They are just beautiful!!

8:00, with this insanely good footage and insanely good soundtrack, this video is approaching FortNine levels of art. Outstanding!!

Great to see a bike that has so much British history, now being developed in UK by some of the smartest blokes in motorcycle design. Kudos to royal Enfield team, who are encouraging builder to modify and showcase their talents.

@ZebraZ ... Its a fate of RE weather it’s india or UK .... Porud of its British roots and design team in Uk .. proud of RE ... from India 🇮🇳

I love it. Royal Enfield really does get it. It’s nice to see a company talking with riders and sticking to the “roots”. Very nice or should I say “Nought tea”.

Great video guys, very well produced. I love how RE have this old school approach to customising / tuning etc in their modern development facility. Fantastic. Very pleased with my interceptor and ease of customisation.

The coolest bike company just got cooler! , and I want one!

Great looking bike. One of my favourites from the show.

Great editing and sound nice job celebrating these great engineers!

When is RE going to put this into production 😭😭😭

It's a pure 70's style racer, love it, it's my era.

Happy belated birthday, Harry!

my first bike was an enfield. They have a following even here in the states. Really cheap which is great and annoying at the same time. Theyre design department is kicking but though. Nice to see a company focus on the cheaper part of the market but stills allow you to look stylish!!

The exhaust sounded so beautiful.

Honestly the finished bike looks incredible, top work!

Stunning looking bike. With a huge scope to increase both power and handling. I LOVE RIDING MY GT650. KEEP UP THE FANTASIC WORK.

This is a giant step forward for RE. This must be an awesome company to work for. Hopefully they will make this machine available to the public, even if the owner has to build it.

That fairing looks beautiful!

I need that fairing for my CGT650. Gorgeous work.

Love the sound of the bike

Lovely sound and looks.

What an awesome looking and I'm sure performing bike. Great job of these guys. Even though the paint job does not match my taste, the overall appearance does. Instantly fell in love with this bike

Very Very Classy! Nice job.

Please produce more of the race edition 650 gt and by the way great job Royal Enfield I feel proud to own a Royal Enfield so hats off to this legendary brand and also to this amazing channel to bring it to us.

Great bike, would love to have seen it painted in a classic colour scheme.

Absolutely stunning, and beautiful bike:-)

What a bike! Now the engine needs some work to be done to match the looks! I like the triangle theme on the paintwork. Riding through leaves on that autumn road. Lovely! What I will be doing this very day!

Gorgeous!

This effort resulted in a gorgeous motorcycle! Hats off to those involved in the transformation. RE, if reading comments, the stock Continental GT needs a similar rear frame modification to match the lines of the seat. Although I largely prefer the GT, I am leaning toward the INT 650 simply because I find the rear of the Continental GT too clumsy in appearance.

Great video - add this bike to my list :)

The only missing thing is a pillion seat. Riding this without a pillion is shame. Looks awesome.

Ah!!! Love those Intake mod's

Sweet looker a blast from the past look a like , love it

Great audio editing: The spoken bits are nicely quiet, and then the software composed elevator music kicks in, blasting at four times the volume.

well done RE and Harris ...bring the bike to market, and I will buy

What a great bike😍i have the conti650 and i'm so happy with it

Looks fantastic. Please bring this to the US and I’ll be one of your first customers 👍

great looking bike, the colour scheme is on point. great video with great inputs from RE and lester Harris. where can I buy one??!?!?!?!?!

Bike looks awesome and colour, design. ,👌

Beautiful bike

Oooh looks sweet. I thought with their earlier tease we'd see a proper 700 cc cruiser from RE, but a track oriented RE? That i would have never imagined I'd see.

The styling reminds me of the Paul Dunstal bikes of the 60s and 70s. Looking great.

Why not just call it the Royal Enfield Harris GT ... And when can I get a road version

Well i am going to buy this bike i really loved it

sweet looking bike!

They need to build that fairing for the market and sell it on their site. This would make the GT a beauty.

Gorgeous!!! 😍👍👍

Pls launch this as it is…❤ a beauty

i do own a 535 cgt,i LOVE IT, 500 single a true cafe racer, the frame is just amazing,bad point the brembo are discusting and the gabriel front fork is a way to soft,but make my day touch my RE

Love thoes forks....would lov the info,specs on em 👍👍👍

Love it!! 😍😍😍

Never thought a royalenfield would be scraping footpegs one day. But I bought an interceptor for practical reasons and i love it.

Superb.

Royal Enfield, the underdog brand. Taking on the big boys with style and heritage.

Love it!

Awesome Video. With all due respect to Lester Harris and the rest of the team members, do we see a Higher capacity Himalayan on the way?

Good start but where is the 850 cc model? And when will we see the "Scrambler"?

is there ANYWAY to get a seat cowl like that? preferably in white (or with the baker express stripes)?

Sir, I would love to know which ohlins front suspension have been used? Please provide the model name.

I think RE should let the Harris team focus on building and working on the KX 838 and probably a 1200. With its killer price points and brilliant heritage they will be the revolution needed in the motorcycling world.

It’s not easy, but it’s what we do. Classic !

French British japanesese European chinese now India don't scoff folks affordable bikes are making a return...from newly owning himalayan to sit along with my versys 650...cheers guys from dave

I am in love with the red one but there is one question bothering me - The profile of the fuel tank is almost vertical near the rider seat. Will it cause problem for the rider while encountering bumps or potholes at his sensitive area??

Listening to the American at the end of the clip only confirms my earliest suspicions. He describes the engine as having "a lot of metal" and being flexible in terms of upgrading power. I see a factory 750-850 cc coming out quite soon.

was there any chance of this being entered in the twins cup? would love to see an Enfield take it to the SV650s/ MT07s.

Love it! Build it. It WILL sell.

Very nice motorcycle looks great What size is the rear tire

How long did you make those guys make grinding sparks for the fill shots?????

will there be aftermarket part available from Harris ......I like the idea of it called the "Naughty T"......looking good guys beautiful looking machine

great to see a bike from the fifties looking like a bike from the seventies, now if only you could make it perform like a bike from this century you would be on to a winner

RE i think should do a race category here in aus. if they did i would be one of the first to sign up and race

Are these front forks available anywhere to purchase?

The speeding Lama on the Delhi- Pune Highway: RRRRRR . Om mane padme hum !

India well done . Royal Enfield the collaboration is Great works .. Mighty

Good work lads just make the headlamps square/rectangular.

When i showed the bike to my girlfriend, asking what she thought of it, she said it looked like it hit a deer xD, but i kinda like it!

It sounded as if it was going 10 mph. But was been ridden aggressively on a race track. Just like the good old days. Really nice. What Enfield should do is promote racing. A one make series for closed circuit racing a every man's race series cheaper and more fun. Also they could promote a rally or 24 hour style race held in India. Dehli to Varanasi or such like.

06:28 I was like: "Oh my f*cking God!" Amazing what Harris Performance did to this bike, expanding even further it´s capabilities!

Will this version be available for the Indian markets?

I'm in love

Let's see. Version 2 engine specs? Light weight rods, slipper pistons, reworked head with titanium valves and valve springs. Hotter grind camshafts, remapped ignition and injection. I suppose a pressurized air intake to match more robust injectors would help. Going to need to increase heat dissipation so a larger oil cooler or second cooler will be needed. Sounds like fun to me.

does it have a revcounter?

RE can capture whole international market with affordable ADV and Sports cruiser based on 650 architect with DOHC set up for free revving

I want one :)

Coooooool!

India’s love for Royal Enfield needs no introduction. While the whole world shunned these retro motorcycles, the Indian market helped the brand grow from a humble 50,000 units annually in 2010 to registering over 50,000 units in a single month! Today Royal Enfield does not sell mere motorcycles. In fact, they sell lifestyles! The company wants to become a dominant force in the global middleweight motorcycle market. Here are the upcoming Royal Enfield motorcycles which the brand is working to rise towards global domination: Royal Enfield Meteor Royal Enfield Concept KX Bobber The Royal Enfield Meteor is expected to be the production variant of the Royal Enfield KX Concept Bobber. This prototype was unveiled at EICMA 2018. The KX concept draws inspiration to a V-twin Bobber style motorcycle the company previously retailed. Royal Enfield has also recently patented the Meteor brand name for the European market. The concept from EICMA 2018, the Royal Enfield Concept KX Bobber concept flaunted a brand new 838 cc V-twin powerplant. The engine has a bore of 80 mm and a stroke of 83.4 mm. Besides that, the engine has a claimed maximum power output of 90 PS. Also, the engine was coupled to a 6-speed gearbox and ride-by-wire throttle system for a linear power delivery. The Royal Enfield Concept KX Bobber was fitted with 19-inch wheels and shod with knobby Maxxis tyres. Royal Enfield Concept KX Bobber has a wheelbase of 1,530 mm and has a ground clearance of 128 mm. Also, the seat height of 760 mm, if enters production, will make for a great motorcycle, thanks to easy accessibility. The Royal Enfield Concept KX Bobber uses a girder fork type front suspension. A single damper and an under-seat link-type monoshock at the back. The production variant though may get standard telescopic fork or upside-down fork in the front instead of the girder fork. We expect the Royal Enfield Meteor based on the Concept KX Bobber to be launched sometime next year. Royal Enfield Himalayan 650 Royal Enfield Himalayan One of the most uncharacteristic yet delightful Royal Enfield out there, the Himalayan is soon to get an open heart surgery! Yes, the Chennai based manufacturer will take the powerplant from the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 and introduce it to the Himalayan. Of course, we expect several mechanical and cosmetic updates to be made. In its present tune the 411 cc LS engine from the Royal Enfield Himalayan produces 24.8 PS of power and 32 Nm of torque. The parallel-twin 648 cc mill from the Interceptor 650, in its present tune produces 47.5 PS of power and 52 Nm of torque. Royal Enfield claims that 80% of this torque is available from a low engine speed of 2,500 rpm. That will make the Royal Enfield Himalayan 650 a very capable off-roader, producing the required amount of pulling force right when you need it! In terms of features, the Royal Enfield Himalayan 650 may continue with the same analogue-digital instrumentation. This unit is fairly comprehensive and even houses a magnetic compass for those who like to take the road not taken. We would also love to see a switchable ABS, at least for the rear wheel. The Royal Enfield Himalayan 650 may hit production form by mid-2020. The bike will also get an updated chassis and an improved suspension system. Royal Enfield Flat Tracker 650 Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 Spotted recently for the first time, the Royal Enfield Flat Tracker 650 utilises a reworked version of the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650. The senior management has been previously known to want multiple versions of motorcycles from the Royal Enfield 650 Twins platform. A Flat Tracker though comes as a pleasant surprise. The Royal Enfield Flat Tracker 650 will continue with conventional telescopic fork up front. However, we believe that the engineers will be upgrading from the existing setup. Also, the rear will get a monoshock with adjustable preload. The engineers will also stiffen up the handlebar a bit so that it can take a beating. Besides that, the Royal Enfield Flat Tracker 650 will get alloy wheels and knobby go-anywhere tyres. The test unit spotted recently was seen sporting S&S exhaust system. But we do not expect them to hit production in order to keep costs under check. Royal Enfield can continue using its subsidiary Harris Performance to stiffen up the chassis. The 648 cc oil cooled parallel-twin engine too will be re-tuned to meet the demands of a flat tracker. We would also love to see Royal Enfield up the ante on this front by increasing the performance output. A Flat Tracker will also allow Royal Enfield to get back to competitive racing at American Flat Tracker championship. A sporting event where both Harley-Davidson and Indian Motorcycle is gaining recognition. We expect the Royal Enfield Flat Tracker 650 to make it to production around Auto Expo 2020. However, the bike will be priced at a premium. Royal Enfield 250 Yes, Royal Enfield is finally planning to introduce a smaller and more affordable product. Several media reports point out to an upcoming quarter-litre Royal Enfield badged motorcycle. The ongoing economic downturn in India, has hit the company hard. A more accessible product will help more new customers to be a part of the Royal Enfield family. Precious little details have emerged about the Royal Enfield 250. We are not sure if the new motorcycle will be introduced under the existing brand names or something new. However, we believe a Royal Enfield Bullet 250 can do wonders to the brand. The engine can trace its origins to the Royal Enfield Bullet 350. The latter, in its present BS-IV iteration, is powered by a 346 cc air-cooled engine. This push rod powerplant is capable of producing 20.07 PS of power and 28 Nm of torque. Of course, fuel injection will be standard in the upcoming BS-VI complaint Royal Enfield 250. Also, the suspension system will continue to be conventional telescopic fork in the front and dual springs in the rear. Besides that, we expect the present design elements to be carried forward in the Royal Enfield 250. Brakes too will be in the same configuration, a disc in the front and a drum in the rear. We expect the Royal Enfield 250 to take at least a couple of years before breakig.

Apply many mod but just keep it Royal 👑

If I still lived in Belfast I'd serioulsy consider a 650GT for a daily ride. Just enough power for a city and at that price you wouldn't mind getting a few scratches on it. I may still consider one as a project bike when they hit the 2nd hand market. That special is stunning though.

With the retro scene how it is right now, why not start a race series on the 650 platform? I know I'd love to watch a grid of 20 of those bikes hooning around the uk tracks. Hell, Make it affordble through the thundersport series and I might even be tempted to join!

Stunning bike!!! But; what will be the price?, I strongly believe that all the “buyers” down the comments will change their mind when the price came up!!

I like some Royal Enfield and this one looks quite nice except the tank could be improved a lot.

India need more bikes like this design, good design.

What tires are those?
