Royal Enfield has been on the rise for some time now, and the brand has been developing its model range. In the 650cc class, the Interceptor and Continental GT 650 were both RE’s main mid-range offerings until the launch of the Super Meteor 650. Bringing the standard model and cafe racer into a more modern era. RE has brought a series of updates to its original 650 bikes with hardware upgrades and new looks for 2024 as standard equipment. 

Both retro models received LED headlights. Still round in shape, but now with a bright white light, the upgrade will increase the premium factor of the two bikes.

No updates have been made to the engine or other hardware for these bikes, so we still get the classic RE performance with a 647.95 cc twin-cylinder engine with 46.8 horsepower, six-speed manual transmission with slipper clutch, a 320 mm disc at the front, a 240 mm disc at the rear, anti-lock brakes at both ends, standard forks at the front and twin gas shock absorbers at the rear.

Like the Super Meteor, the Chennai manufacturer has also gone further with its switches, opting for a new set of switches on both sides to revamp the cabin and other contact points on the bike. The handlebars and ergonomics of the Interceptor and Continental GT 650 remain unchanged, with the exception of the updated seat, which Royal Enfield claims is better than that of previous years. For this update, more padding equals more comfort, so RE decided to add a little more comfort this time.

Next comes the USB port. While it could be argued that this port takes away from the classic, simple appeal of the 650, I’d say it’s definitely a convenience feature that any modern driver shouldn’t ignore. The port is a USB type A unit, which is used to charge the cell phone. When not in use, a waterproof flap keeps it away from moisture and dust.

Finally, no updated RE model would be complete without this, but a new set of paint schemes and hardware options. Potential buyers of either 650 will be able to select one of the two finishes offered by the classic brand. There are also variants for both models that will be fitted with spoked wheels, chrome engine covers and chrome exhausts. If you don’t prefer a more discreet look, variants with alloy wheels, black engine covers and black exhausts are available.

As for the price in France, the Interceptor 650 will cost €7,390. Meanwhile, the Continental GT 650 goes for €7,690.
