OUR REVIEW:
The Continental GT 650 delivers an exhilarating ride with aggressive acceleration and a true café racer charm. Its retro design and sporty ergonomics make it a joy on open roads, but it feels heavy in traffic. While handling is stable, braking could be better, especially on downhill rides. Despite minor drawbacks, it remains a stylish and performance-packed machine for enthusiasts.
