Retro Racing Revived - The Royal Enfield Continental GT Cup

 

For the first time in India, Royal Enfield introduces a new retro racing format that is accessible and engaging. Inspired by the purist racing culture of the 1960s, the Continental GT Cup series is safe and fun. Our thoroughbred, race-prepped machines are devoid of any electronic rider aids to ensure it is the rider's skill that is rewarded. Centred around the exciting but unintimidating Continental GT 650 and with affordable entry costs, the Continental GT Cup is within reach of everyone who dreams of competing in classic motorcycle racing.
