Special edition Royal Enfield 650 twins unveiled to commemorate 120th Anniversary

Royal Enfield has been one of the most reputed motorcycle manufacturers not only across India but also around the world. The manufacturer had initially started the production of motorcycles way back in 1901 and this year (2021) marks the 120th year. To commemorate the special occasion Royal Enfield has unveiled two special editions of its 650 Twin motorcycles. The 120th Anniversary Royal Enfield 650 twins- Interceptor INT 650 and the Continental GT 650 were unveiled at the EICMA 2021.

Royal Enfield has clarified that the two 650 twin motorcycles will be limited to 480 units only and will be available in India, Europe, Americas and South-East Asia. This means that only 60 units of Interceptor INT 650 and Continental GT 650 will be sold in each region. Even though both the motorcycles have the same engine as the regular versions, they will receive a bunch of cosmetic updates and will easily stand out of the crowd.

What to expect from the 120^th Year Anniversary Edition bikes
