        Expect the Continental GT to house a four-stroke, single-cylinder, 535cc, air-cooled and fuel-injected engine.

          Advice is a form of nostalgia.
          Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

                  A cafe racer per say is not a tourer bike

                  so it's bound to look weird with saddle bags

                  It will be interesting to see how the existing RE customers view this bike

                          I waited for this bike long enough and got tired, but boy it looks tasty and hopefully ride that way too. The ndtv link has good pictures and pretty much clears up everything. Brace for waiting periods, people who're going for this
                          It all begins with a thumb-start -- Oh, wait, I forgot the kill-switch

                              I'm generally a hater of REs, but the Continental GT has my attention. Interesting developements.

                                Exactly the same thought came to my mind when I saw the article

                                IMO the saddle bags are optional accessories and the test rider was using them to carry his belongings as he was travelling long distances. And really the bags dont gel well with the Caferacer
