<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Royal Enfield has finally launched the highly anticipated Continental GT in India with an on-road price of Rs 2.05 lakh on-road Delhi and Rs 2.14 lakh on-road Mumbai. The Continental GT is the same bike that Royal Enfield had displayed at the Auto Expo 2012 by the name of Café Racer. Now, café racing, as a culture, evolved during the 1960s in the UK and involved motorcycle enthusiasts (the Rockers—a biker subculture) using stripped down, customised motorcycles to race between transport cafés. These sporty, souped-up motorcycles gave birth to the café racer genre. Low-set handlebars and rear-set footpegs—lending to a crouched down riding posture—were the hallmarks of these café racers. They were also very simple machines that could be customised easily to make them more responsive and quicker.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Café racers of the 1960s and Royal Enfield’s own 1965 Continental GT—the first mass produced café racer of its time—have been the main design inspiration for the current Continental GT. This bike has a stretched out low-profile fuel tank with knee recesses for the authentic period café racer look. Then, it has a flat sculpted racing seat with contrast stitching and bump stop along with rear-set foldable footrests. There are trimmed front and rear mudguards that add to the clean lines of the Continental GT. It also has an upswept exhaust that allows more ground clearance, especially required when you are cornering at speed. Royal Enfield has worked closely with Xenophya Design of the UK in order to ensure that the Continental GT doesn’t miss out on design details. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The new RE flagship will be sold in two colours, red and yellow only. Powering the Continental GT will be a single cylinder air cooled 535cc engine delivering 29PS of power and 44Nm of peak torque and will come mated to a five-speed gearbox. RE has developed the chassis in collaboration with UK based Harris performance. The front suspension has 41mm telescopic forks while the rear has Paioli twin gas-charged shock absorbers. The bike is shod with Pirelli Sport Demon tyres and brembo brakes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The Continental GT is manufactured at the company’s plant in Oragadam near Chennai. The company is expanding its manufacturing capacity to 2.5 lakh units by 2014.</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If there’s one thing very significant about the popularizing of custom motorcycles apart from the build, is the outstanding photography that’s being shot and shared. And if you are the one, who says bike builders don’t know where the shutter and focus belong, the best practice is to work with a professional photographer together. See Rajputana Customs, from the very beginning with the maximum attention and appreciations,they shows us the perfect combination of building a bike and shooting them.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The all new Soorma, was completed in mid october , 2012. A 350cc classic Royal Enfield has turned into this outstanding green bobber, Soorma – A combination of beauty and telent. And yes if you see closely, you’ll love the frame work, completely changed to eliminate the traditional rare shoks.</span></div>
<div>
<div style="border: 0px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Soorma AKA ‘Champion’ has been built for Mr. Manish Suri in Jammu. Vijay told us “Soorma AKA ‘Champion’ has been built for Mr. Manish Suri in Jammu. He wanted a full scale project…”. The hard tail frame was completely rebuilt for the bike. As you see the frame and forks were shaped out of . The shorten bikes exhaust comes with a great look and we can imagine how melodious she would sound.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 20px;"><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We are thankful to Vijay, for sharing the details of the custom built. “The Pint job detailing Nandu-ji and the koftgari & brass work have been done by our other karigars in Jaipur & Udaipur.” Apart from the engine we don’t find much similarity with the donor bike. They have completely changed almost everything and as a result you see another beautiful bobber by Rajputana.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Royal Enfield today kicked off a new motorcycle ride – The Tour of Tibet. This will be the third-ever international ride conducted by Royal Enfield.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The participants en-route to Tibet will constantly ride at an average altitude of 4500 mts above sea level for most of the duration reaching the Everest Base Camp (5200 mts above sea level) making this one of the most challenging Royal Enfield rides. The first edition of the Royal Enfield Tour of Tibet was flagged off from Lucknow from the Royal Enfield Brand Store at Badshah Nagar by Chief Guest Mrs Anita Singh, Assistant Regional Transport Officer for Mahanagar, Lucknow region. In this first edition of the Tour of Tibet 17 riders from India and abroad will be journeying through the scenic landscapes of India, Nepal and Bhutan for 15 days covering 2380 kms (approx).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Shaji Koshy, Senior Vice-President Sales & Marketing Royal Enfield said, “The Tour of Tibet is a brand new ride that Royal Enfield has introduced this year. We are offering our customers a new motorcycling frontier – Lucknow to Lhasa with the Tour of Tibet. This tour offers newer motorcycling destinations and a variety of riding terrains to the participants that will make the Tour of Tibet an experience of a lifetime. Such motorcycling adventures further strengthen the Royal Enfield philosophy and promise of providing pure motorcycling experience to our customers”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In its very first edition itself the Royal Enfield Tour of Tibet garnered some international interest. This year along with participants from India, the Tour of Tibet has 2 participants from Uruguay and one participant from Singapore.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The cavalcade of Royal Enfield riders will be en-route to Kathmandu for the first two days passing through plains. Once the riders cross Bhairava, they will enter the foothills till they reach Kathmandu on October 13. From Kathmandu onwards the riders will be on their way into the Lhasa, Tibet passing through the ‘lesser Himalayas’ where the riders will come across several sharp turns which are shaped like hairpins. This will be an unforgettable stretch for the riders as they will pass through 4 mountain passes which are all above 5000 mts. The riders are scheduled to reach Lhasa on October 20 where they shall rest for a day and get acclimatised and then will begin their ascent from Lhasa towards the Everest Base Camp (5200 mts above sea level) on October 22. The participants are scheduled to reach the Everest Base Camp via Shegar on October 24. On October 25, the riders would begin their descent and will continue from the base camp till Tingri. The entire stretch of Shegar-Everest Base Camp-Tingri will be an off-roading experience for all participants. The first Royal Enfield Tour of Tibet will culminate on October 26 once the riders reach Kathmandu.</span></div>

<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span class="article-leader">The 535cc Royal Enfield
Continental GT Cafe Racer will debut in the UK this month, and in India
soon after. Siddhartha Lal, CEO of Eicher Motors Limited is passionate
about the way in which he has turned Royal Enfield around. Speaking on
the subject with fervor and enthusiasm on India Business Report on BBC
World, Lal goes back to 1901 when Royal Enfield was the most favored
brand.</span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The much awaited Royal Enfield
Continental GT 535 aka Cafe Racer is looking ready to become the
fastest-ever mass produced bike from Royal Enfield ever. The bike has
also become the lightest production RE of recent times.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The GT 535 will be built around a
lightweight, double cradle frame that will help in keeping the weight
under a check. The upcoming bike is expected to be as much as 15kgs
lighter than the Thunderbird 500 TBTS.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The Continental GT 535 will be powered
by a single cylinder 535cc UCE engine that will boast of a bigger
throttle body and a larger piston (than the 500cc UCE motors). The new
535cc mill will also have a remapped ECU and a lighter flywheel. All
this would bestow the bike with enough juice to have a 150kmph-plus top
whack and decent in-gear acceleration. The bike will be shod with
Pirelli tyres and will sport a pair of Paioli gas-charged shock
absorbers at the rear.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">As can be seen in the pics, the bike
will have disc brakes on both the wheels. The upcoming 2014 Royal
Enfield Continental GT 535 Cafe Racer, in all possibility, would be
priced a little above INR 2 lakhs in Indian bike market. Stay tuned for
more info on 2014 Royal Enfield Continental GT 535 Cafe Racer India
launch.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Rumor has it that the bike will reach Europe and the US with a price tag
under $8,000 (€6,070) and in case October proves this right, we might
be looking at really nice sales figures before the end of the year. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is the news piece every Royal Enfield enthusiast has been longing to hear! The company today rolled out the first motorcycle from its new plant at Oragadam in the outskirts of Chennai. This is RE’s second production facility and has been constructed at an investment of Rs 150 crore for the first phase of the facility. The new plant was completed in just 11 months and is spread across 50 acre -- five times the size of the older plant at Thiruvottiyur near Chennai! With the new facility operational, waiting periods on some of the models are expected to go down from the present eight months to six months -- something that should come as a relief to to prospective RE bike buyers.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Speaking on the occasion, Siddhartha Lal, Eicher Motors Managing Director and CEO, said, “At Royal Enfield we have recorded a major milestone today with this plant at Oragadam becoming operational. Royal Enfield has witnessed a huge surge in demand in the recent past, recording a growth of over 50 per cent for each of the last two years. However, even as we start commercial production today, we have already begun working on the second phase of expansion at Oragadam, which will further increase the production capacity to 250,000 motorcycles in 2014."</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Apart from hiking production capacity, the new facility optimises production costs by merges relevant automation with human craftsmanship. A new CED (Cathodic Electrocoat Deposition) paint shop with a capacity of 600 motorcycles per day has been set up. Further, a robotic painting system and powder coating system have also been employed to reduce wastage.</span></div>

<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Royal Enfield, has launched its popular motorcycle Bullet with a new 500cc engine, in a new shade, called Forest Green along with some updates.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In terms of design, the Bullet 500 retains all the basic design elements of a <a href="http://www.enfieldmotorcycles.in/2010/05/royal-enfield-bullet-350-twinspark.html" target="_blank">true-blue Bullet</a> but gets additions like new pillion grab-rail with a cushion end, all new pilot lamps which Royal Enfield calls “Tiger Lamps” and old-school-inspired classic tail lamps. The new bike also gets the Royal Enfield Winged badge which has been finished in a gold and silver livery to complete the vintage look of the bike. For better stability and a meaty stance, the bikes gets 19-inch rims up front which are shod with 280mm disc brakes. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Powering the beast is the same 499cc mill as found on the <a href="http://www.enfieldmotorcycles.in/2009/12/royal-enfield-classic-500.html" target="_blank">Classic 500</a> though Royal Enfield has dropped fuel-injection from it (as rumoured earlier). The four-stroke, twinspark, air-cooled engine pumps out 26.4PS @ 5,100rpm and torque of 40.9Nm @ 3,800rpm. Power is transmitted via a five-speed gearbox and the bike gets electric starter as standard. Royal Enfield has dropped the fuel-injection because a lot of traditional Bullet followers felt it was comparatively unreliable and also the engine didn’t feel the same in contrast to the carburetted version. Royal Enfield haven’t revealed prices yet but it is speculated to be priced lesser than the fuel-injected 500.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The latest offering from Royal Enfield came as a surprise for many Bullet lovers as they were expecting company's much-anticipated <a href="http://www.enfieldmotorcycles.in/2012/12/studio-shot-of-india-bound-2013-royal.html" target="_blank">Cafe Racer</a>. However the new bike too does not disappoint its loyal customers.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Royal Enfield, a name which is celebrated for its Bullets, will offer the brand new bike in a new green colour and is expected to roll out the Bullet in coming months. There is no information available regarding the pricing of the new Bullet.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Initially, the new model Bullet will be available only in the major markets of Royal Enfield like Punjab and Kerala.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The much-awaited bike Cafe Racer, which is powered by a 535cc engine, is reportedly gearing for launch by the end of this year. It is expected to generate more power and torque than the company's Thunderbird and Classic. The company is yet to reveal the pricing of this model for India. As per earlier rumours, the model is likely to fall in the bracket of ₹2 lakhs.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you could recollect, we had posted <a href="http://www.enfieldmotorcycles.in/2013/03/royal-enfield-classic-500-spied-arai.html" target="_blank">spy shots of a group of Royal Enfield</a> motorcycles on their ARAI test run through the streets of Pune. With visually no difference whatsoever in the existing lineup of the Classic range and the test mules, we were wondering as to what was cooking at the Royal Enfield headquarters. The best we could assume was that Royal Enfield might be testing a carbureted and cheaper variant of the Classic 500.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Royal Enfield has released a teaser banner of the new and upcoming Bullet 500 on its website. The teaser shows a simple and classic Bullet design, with a new Forest Green body colour, which is placed between the Sea Green offered with the Classic 500 in India and the Battle Green that is on offer in international markets. Royal Enfield is reintroducing the Bullet 500 name after a decade, when the 24 PS AVL-engined Machismo 500 replaced the earlier model. Since then we have been offered the Classic 500 powered by a 27.5 PS engine. The exact launch date for the new Bullet 500 has not been confirmed. Royal Enfield followers who wished for a Bullet in typical vintage green shade would be the most happiest as Royal Enfield plans to introduce the motorcycle in forest green colour.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It is expected that the Bullet 500 will cost around Rs. 1.4 lakh which is Rs. 20,000/- less than the Classic 500.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Rumors on the interwebs saw Royal Enfield planning to enter once more in the quarter-liter class with a new motorcycle which was to compete with the similar machines Honda or Bajaj are already selling in India and adjacent markets quite successfully. Learning about this, Royal Enfield themselves squashed the rumor in a very firm manner.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">While 250cc bikes wearing the Royal Enfield have been in production since 1911 through 1967, the company is now focused in bigger displacement bikes, with the smallest being a 350cc model. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Even more, Royal Enfield is trying to project a different image, and building up a reputation of solid, very reliable bikes suitable for daily riding, and thus tap into the mainstream sales.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Royal Enfield adds that the announced Cafe Racer 535 is the only bike which is scheduled to be launched any time soon, and this is an altogether different story. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The Cafe Racer 535 will be more powerful than existing half-liter bikes such as the Classic or Thunderbird, will sport new chassis and suspensions and will also have updated exhausts cam shafts and all.</span></div>

<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Recently the RE Classic 500 was caught on camera going through the ARAI Test at Pune. Although by looking at the pictures there does not seem any visible design or styling changes but instead could be some internal changes. There were speculations about a carb version of the Classic 500, but not sure if this is it. Also there are a lot minor issues like oil leaks, heavy vibrations at high speeds, problems in starting in cold weather conditions, poor weld quality and some electrical problems that the owners face.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Although it’s the love of the RE Classic 500 for which the owners still love their bike and accept it even if there are some flaws in it, well there flaws in everyone, but you don’t stop loving them. RE might have fixed all such small problems in its newer version of the Classic 500. So far all we can do is wait for some more news, but these images do mean that RE is concerned about its owners an want to live up to their expectations otherwise why test bike that are already in the market.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">One thing that we couldn't help but notice, none of the test riders is wearing a helmet, now that`s just not expected from such an esteemed organization like ARAI. Especially when the bikes are tagged, “On Test by ARAI”.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Lastly, these are just a limited set of speculations we can make at the moment. But we’d like to ask our readers their assumptions about these C500s on the ARAI test. Is there anything apart from the guesses made above that you could think of? Do let us know.</span></div>
