designed and handcrafted by the company’s teams across the UK and India. The
bikes feature a unique, rich black-chrome tank colour scheme which has been

at the company’s original 1950’s manufacturing factory in Thiruvottiyur,
Chennai, India. To complement the black chrome tanks, both the Continental GT
650 and Interceptor 650 will feature, for the first time, completely blacked
out components, with the engine, silencer and other elements in an array of
black colour schemes. The motorcycles will also come equipped with a range of
Genuine Motorcycle Accessories such as flyscreens, engine guards, heel guards,
touring and bar end mirrors amongst others in a black disguise to compliment
the overall design.
The 120th Year Anniversary edition

of Kumbakonam, Tamil Nadu, India. The 120th Year Anniversary edition Interceptor
650 and Continental GT 650s will also boast of the legendary Royal Enfield
