    The Royal Enfield Continental GT650 is the only affordable bike to offer a premium middleweight cafe racer experience. While it stays true to its roots, the GT650 also strikes the right balance between sportiness and everyday usability.

    Solid build, good power and pure fun on highways. Got it 1 year ago. No major issues so far. The seat could be a little softer but everything else is top class. If you love riding, you will enjoy this bike

    I love the sound the engine makes, especially when I have a long road ahead. The suspension of the bike makes me feel like I'm floating on waves when I'm off roading, and the exhaust gives the hum of a powerful beast. Overall, the bike excels in both the features and in looks.

    The Continental GT 650 is an absolute delight. Sure, it’s a bit on the heavier side, but the handling more than makes up for it. It feels stable and responsive.

    Buying experience was good and they showed good customer care . Long riding in a single stretch more than 100 mile is very tiresome but the bike is impressive

    Feels smooth, hits hard, and sounds like freedom, just how a Royal Enfield 'GT-650' should.

      Summary
      The Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 impresses with its powerful 648cc engine, stylish design, and comfortable riding ergonomics. Riders appreciate its smooth torque delivery and premium build quality. However, its heavy weight makes it challenging to maneuver in traffic, and limited ground clearance can be problematic on rough roads. Additionally, its fuel efficiency is lower than that of smaller cruisers, which may deter some buyers.
