royal enfield continental gt 750 2026

Royal Enfield is poised to shake up the middleweight motorcycle segment with the highly anticipated Continental GT 750 in 2026. This new model is expected to replace the popular GT 650 and will feature a larger 750cc parallel-twin engine, likely a bored-out version of the current 648cc unit, promising a significant boost in power and torque (estimated around 50 HP and potentially higher torque figures). Spy shots suggest a retro cafe racer design, possibly with a semi-fairing and taking inspiration from Royal Enfield's GT Cup race bike, the GT-R 650. Key upgrades spotted include enhanced braking with dual disc brakes and alloy wheels with tubeless tires. While specific details on features like suspension (current test mules show telescopic forks, but inverted forks are a possibility) and advanced rider aids continue to emerge, the Continental GT 750 is set to be Royal Enfield's most premium and performance-oriented offering to date, positioned above the Super Meteor 650 in their lineup. Enthusiasts can expect a debut likely at EICMA 2025, followed by a launch in early to mid-2026, marking an exciting new chapter for the brand as it expands its 'R' platform with a range of 750cc models.
