Royal Enfield Continental GT 750 revealed with new 743cc engine
By Areeb Khan
Royal Enfield has revealed the new Continental GT 750 at EICMA 2026, featuring a 743cc parallel-twin engine, twin exhausts, dual front disc brakes and three colour options. The motorcycle is expected to launch in India in 2027.
EICMA 2026 mein Himalayan 750 ke full specifications reveal karne ke saath-saath, Royal Enfield ne isi platform par based apna second model bhi showcase kiya hai, jiska name continental GT 750 hai. Continental GT 750 mein Himalayan 750 wala same 743cc engine diya gaya hai, although ismein kuch notable difference bhi dekhe jaa sakte hai. Other than this, both motorcycles ka feature-set bhi ek doosre se kaafi different hai. On the Continental GT 750, what is visisble? While RE ne abhi tak new Continental GT 750 ke specific details reveal nahi kiye hai, but images ko dekhkar kaafi kuch samajh mein aa jaata hai. First, although isme 743cc twin-cylinder motor Himalayan ke saath shared hai, Continental GT mein cable-actuated throttle diya gaya hai instead of the electronic throttle jo Himalayan mein milta hai. Other than this, Conti mein twin exhaust pipes bhi dekhe jaa sakte hai, whereas Himalayan mein 2-into-1 exhaust setup diya gaya hai. Himalayan 750 ka engine 55hp of power and 63Nm of torque produce karta hai, and expect kar sakte hai ki Continental GT 750 ka engine bhi similar power and torque figures ke around output produce karega.
Frame ka design 650cc version ke similar hi lagta hai, although larger motor ko accommodate karne ke liye ismein kuch changes important kiye gaye honge, ya phir ho sakta hai ki frame mein or bhi substantial changes dekhne ko milein. Suspension duties ke liye telescopic froks and twin shock absorbers diye gaye hai, dono hi preload-adjustable hai. But 650cc model ke progressive and gas-charged springs ke comparison mein, Conti 750 mein linear springs and conventional shock absorbers use kiye gaye hai. Other than this braking setup mein bhi ek major change dekhne ko milta hai, jahan front mein ab twin disc brakes diye gaye hai. Although Royal Enfield ne officially is baat ko confirm nahi kiya hai, but yeh braking units Himalayan 750 se directly carry forward kiye gaye lagte hai. Continental GT 750 mein jo switchgear diya gaya hai, woh Himalayan 750 jaisa hi hai, but ismein metal switch cubes use kiye gaye hai and display bhi thoda different hai. Neo-retro Conti mein twin-pod dash setup dekha jaa sakta hai, jiske bottom mein ek small TFT display diya gaya hai, along with two sweeping analogue needles. Is motorcycle ke saath three colour offer kiye gaye hai, Master Clean, Red Line and TT Blue. Pehle 2 colour options mein chrome finish dekhi jaa sakti hai and inke saath wire-spoke wheels diye gaye hai, jo tubed Veredestein Centauro ST tyres ke saath aate hai. However, last colour option mein alloy wheels diye gaye hai, jo tubeless tyres ko accommodate karte hai. Centre stand press photos mein dekhne ko nahi mila hai, although chances hai ki ise 650cc versions ki tarah accessory ke form mein offer kiya jaa sakta hai. Red and Blue colour options as a standard fitment par ek small quarter fairing ke saath aate hai, along with a more committed riding position. On the other hand, chrome colour option mein fairing nahi di gayi hai and ismein comparatively more comfortable riding ergonomics milte hai. All three colour options mein 18-inch wheels diye hai, along with a single-piece seat setup, jisme rider ke saath pillion bhi comfortably sit in ho sakta hai. However, pillion seat ke above ek removeable seat cowl diya gaya hai, jo need hone par remove kiya jaa sakta hai.
Himalayan 750 se abhi tak jo details disclose hui hai, unke basis par hum expect kar sakte hai ki Continental GT 750 apne 650cc sibiling, jiska weight 214kg hai, usse lighter hogi. India mein Continental GT 750 ka launch next year kabhi bhi ho sakta hai, although chances hai ki ise first quarter mein launch kiya jaaye. Iska ek reason yeh bhi hai ki Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 ko in the coming weeks mein MotoVerse event par launch karne wali hai. Flying Flea S6 production specification disclose Royal Enfield ne show mein apni second electric bike Flying Flea S6 ka production-spec version bhi showcase kiya hai. Flying Flea S6 ek scrambler hai and ismein long-travel USD fork ke saath rear mein monoshock setup diya gaya hai. Other than this, S6 mein 19/18 inch (front/rear) wire-spoke wheels dekhe jaa sakte hai, jo tubed tyres ke saath aate hai. Powertrain ki baat karein so expected hai ki Flying Flea S6 mein same powertrain use kiya jayega jo isse pehle C6 mein diya gaya tha, although S6 ke liye iski tuning different rakhi jayegi. Ek or major difference jo S6 ko C6 se different banata hai, woh hai iska chain drive setup. C6 mein rear wheel ko drive karne ke liye belt drive diya gaya hai, whereas S6 mein chain drive use kiya gaya hai. Colour options ki baat karein so Flying Flea S6 ko three colour options, Yellow, Grey and Carbon mein offer kiya jayega. Royal Enfield ki yeh electric scrambler next year se available hona expected hai.
