The Royal Enfield is continuously expanding its portfolio with new machines and in the midst of new launches, it looks like RE can't keep its upcoming projects a screy anymore. A new 750cc machine was recently caught red-handed, growling on the road, powering what seems like the next-generation variant of the Interceptor and Continental GT!
Yes, you read that right. Royal Enfield's 650cc twin-cylinder is growing.
From the spy images of the motorcycle shared by media publications, we can say for sure that Royal Enfield’s new 750cc is already turning heads even before it made an official debut! That seems like a great addition after the latest Bear 650, Guerilla 450, Shotgun 650, Classic 650, etc.

Royal Enfield Continental GT 750, Interceptor 750 happening?
It looks like Royal Enfield is gearing up to update its 650cc Continental GT and 650cc Interceptor models with new 750cc engines. A proper cafe racer-style Royal Enfield motorcycle has been spied on the road and the images from Rushlane are giving dopamine hits to RE fanboys. This is because it’s expected to be the first Royal Enfield capable of crossing a top speed of 200 km/h, thanks to its slightly bigger and more powerful engine.
As of now, the available images showcase a proper cafe racer motorcycle.

What we know about the new Continental GT
The upcoming Royal Enfield machine has the entire cafe racer community buzzing and for good reason. Hidden behind a burly, Monza-style front fairing, it’s clear this motorcycle means business. The fairing stretches all the way back and it is reminiscent of the custom Continental GT designs that have become iconic in the world of cafe racers.
This time, Royal Enfield may launch the Continental GT with café racer fairing as an accessory. The side profile shows the black 750cc engine. Everything about the ergonomics screams performance, with a sporty setup that’s built for speed.
From the side profile, you can spot the aggressive clip-on handlebars and rear-set footpegs, signs of a machine crafted for tight cornering and the thrill of the open road. But it’s the fuel tank design that truly speaks to the soul of this bike. It’s been crafted with cafe racing in mind, a nod to the past but with modern flair.
As we take in the details, we also see the dual exhausts similar to the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650. This new 750cc machine is shaping up to be a true homage to cafe racer culture but with an edge that could very well make it one of the fastest machines in the Royal Enfield lineup.

Does the new engine make a big difference?
The new twin-cylinder 750cc engine is expected to produce 5 to 7bhp more than the previous twin-cylinder 648cc engine. The company has apparently increased the size of the bore to achieve more cubic capacity. Thus, the new motor could produce around 47bhp of peak power and 52Nm of peak torque.
The new 750cc engine could be part of other Royal Enfield models, such as the Super Meteor, Classic and Shotgun in the future. We expect the upcoming bikes to be released by 2025-2026.
