Royal Enfield's new 650cc cruiser spotted testing

The upcoming Royal Enfield 650cc motorcycles could carry forward the same 648cc engine from the Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650.

The Royal Enfield 650cc Cruiser has been in the works from the Chennai-based brand for quite a while now. The motorcycle has been spotted in India and abroad in various iterations. Now, a fresh set of images, showcase the 650cc Cruiser undergoing testing in international markets.

As seen from the images, the spied twin-cylinder cruiser features centre-set footpegs and a lower positioned handlebar. The spy images also showcase three different variations of the Cruiser, mainly differentiated by the front forks, one is wearing a silver fork, another is black, and the third has golden forks. the motorcycles can also be seen riding either on spoke wheels or black alloys, depending on the variation. All three test mules though can be seen fully loaded with touring accessories, including a large front visor, a top box and a pair of hard panniers.

The upcoming Royal Enfield 650cc motorcycles could carry forward the same 648cc engine from the Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650. However, the engine is expected to be updated to suit the riding character of the Cruiser. Currently, the 650cc parallel-twin unit produces 47 BHP and 52 Nm and is paired with a 6-speed gearbox.
