Motorcycle journalist Roland Brown tests Royal Enfield's Continental GT on the single-cylinder café racer's international press launch, based at London's Ace Café
I've looked for the prices and the Enfield is more expensive in France (6100 Euros) than a CB500F Honda with ABS, a bullet proof engine and 47 HP (5900 Euros).
if you are trying to crack the USA market, a 500cc bike is NOT the way to do it. You need to start with at least 1200cc in order to even be relevant. The Triumph Thruxton and Bonneville are beautiful bikes but with only 865cc motor, they can't compete with the likes of the Sportster or Indian Scout.
Looks fabulous. I'd love one

A darling of a bike, but this isn't the sixties and … 29 bhp? in today's world? On today's roads?
