Royal Enfield Continental GT for Sale — Enfield’s first Cafe Racer in 60 Years!

Launched as a tribute to the café racer era, it was Royal Enfield’s first cafe racer model for 60 years, and was the first in a line-up of performance-oriented machines before the arrival of the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650. With its classic styling, sculpted fuel tank, clip-on handlebars, and rearset footpegs, the GT 535 captures the spirit of 1960s British café racers while delivering a reliable and rewarding riding experience courtesy of fuel injection.

Powered by a 535cc single-cylinder engine, the Royal Enfield Continental GT’s low-slung profile and characterful engine makes it incredibly engaging on twisty B-roads and around town. Despite its modest displacement, the GT 535 provides enough torque and presence to inject some nostalgia into the minds of seasoned riders, while remaining accessible for new riders looking for a stylish and manageable introduction to the world of retro motorbikes. Its light weight, responsive chassis, and distinctive burble make it a standout option for riders who value charm and connection over outright speed. You’ll get the looks of approval on this GT over any super bike… 

The Continental GT 535 has become something of a modern classic—an important stepping stone in Royal Enfield’s 21st Century rebirth as a manufacturer of beautifully designed, character-rich machines. Whether you’re a collector, a weekend café racer enthusiast, or a new rider seeking timeless looks with engaging performance, this GT 535 offers an iconic slice of motorcycling heritage.
