The Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 with alloy wheels have been revealed by Royal Enfield abroad. Owners have been requesting this function since since the motorcycles were introduced, and there have also been a few other updates to the well-liked bikes.
The black alloy wheels with tubeless tyres that come with this update are the main talking point because they should satisfy the owners’ fervent requests for this feature ever since the bikes were introduced. Thanks to the tubeless tyres, tasks like fixing a puncture or replacing a tyre should now be simpler.
The Super Meteor 650 appears to be the same LED headlamp that has been added to the 650 twins, along with a USB charger and switchgear from more recent RE models like the Hunter 350.
Both bikes have two new colour options in addition to the alloy wheels: Slipstream Blue and Apex Grey for the Continental GT 650 and Black Ray and Barcelona Blue for the Interceptor 650.
The exhaust pipes, engine parts, and bodywork are all done in black.
We anticipate the alloy wheel versions of the bikes to be released sooner rather than later given that the Interceptor 650 and the Continental GT 650 are key models for the Chennai-based marque in India.
Currently, only the blacked-out versions of the two bikes have the cast alloy rims. This upgrade is anticipated to spread to the remaining colorways or at the very least be made available as an accessory. These new colours are around Rs 6,000 more expensive outside of India than the top-of-the-line Mark 2 colour scheme for both bikes.
