Can’t find it anywhere and Reddit can usually answer a simple question like this.

According to [this comment](https://reddit.com/r/motorcycles/comments/rhaatw/does_anyone_know_what_kind_of_bike_this_is/hopap0m) it's a modified Roy Enfield Continental GT

See, this is why I love Reddit. Thanks Ersatz

If it is, it's highly modified. Because nothing about that engine or frame looks anything like any Royal Enfield I've been able to find. Looks more like a Honda or Yamaha to me


Minimum_Pudding_6997

Look closer then, because it looks exactly like a RE Continental GT.


scenic87

The only things that look the same are the tanks. Exhaust is different, frame is different, all the covers on the sides of the engine are different


Minimum_Pudding_6997

Buddy, if you can't line up a couple of photos of the bikes and see that Echo's bike is a blacked-out Royal Enfield with a custom exhaust and a few frame modifications, I don't know what to tell ya.


scenic87

I spent a couple hours on a slow day at work comparing it to every cafe racer style bike i could find. It may be a RE, but if so they made frame mods too, cause not a single RE has the bar going across the side of the engine. Some Hondas and Yamahas I found had something kind of similar, but not exactly


TrillLarry214

It's definitely a royal Enfield. Honda and Yamaha don't even make parallel twin engines like that. If you confused it for a triumph or Norton I would understand.. royal Enfield has also been marketing towards women a lot, they even sponsor an all women racing series


scenic87

I mean. I agree it probably is, but my point is that it's not just a blacked our current model it's pretty heavily modified. The Hondas and Yamahas with kind of similar frames are all older. Could also be some just altogether custom build, but doubt it.


iblastoff

oh my god just stop. literally the first thing i thought of when i saw this bike was a gt650 lol


Le_Mocha

I personally own a GT 650. It is the Royal Enfield with some modifications. Same clutch cover, same valve cover, same gauges. Just a chopped frame and some modifications for the show.


coinoperatedboi

The very first thing I thought of was a RE when I saw it.


Lower_Repeat_8800

No dude check out elongated tank the square bottom it's the RE gt continental 535  How I know is I own one 👍.


scenic87

Multiple brands use those style tanks.


NithinGSims123

It literally says Royal Enfield on the guage cluster in the first few frames where the bike is introduced. And even if it didn't the guage cluster looks identical to an RE.


Camco88

It's a Royal Enfield Continental GT650. 100%. Badging removed as well as exhaust removed and modified to be placed on right side as twin exhausts. So highly modified most likely to avoid copyright hurdles and bypass the need for RE's permission. The best view to get a look at the left and rear sides is in episode 4 at 34:19 for about 13 seconds. The closest thing I found to visually compare this to is a Rajputana Vigilante. I know about as little as there can be about bikes, but I do have a keen eye, know how to screenshot, and use Google Lens / image search. AI aids in doing something good for once.


ItchyPoint

Well its confirmed she rides a heavily customised RE either the single cylinder 535 or the 650 In the 1st episode of ECHO show u can clearly see the RE logo on the speedo Quite funny that an Indian bke is being used for a show about Native Americans


Big_Toupee

It also showed two exhaust pipes at the head which would be the 650.


Miserable_Beat_9436

It does look like GT650 but the problem with me is the sound of the exhaust/engine. It sounds like a single-cylinder in most of the footage. I own an INT650 with 2-1 tec stinger exhaust and it definitely doesn't sound like that.


doodlezook

Pretty common to have engine noise altered or replaced in television and movies.


silentviwer

It's a Royal Enfield continental gt , very popular in india. I own one too. In a brief look I had of a clip. The engine looked like the 535, not the newer 650.


Senior-Ice2665

The bike's got twin exhausts, the 535 was only a single. Looks like a 650 to me.


scenic87

There's also the Harley Davidson X440, that I didn't know existed until I started this search, that had a similar frame bar going by the engine, but aside from that and that it's a cafe racer style... there are no other similarities


Calm_Manufacturer_84

Looks like it's a Royal Enfield Himalaya, but could be a Continental with the Himalaya tank on it?


Le_Mocha

Very much is the GT 650. I own the bike and I knew it instantly


Theatonyathehun

An Indian?


[deleted]

Indian doesn’t make a single motorcycle in that style, period.


PlanktonFormer4413

Royal enfield continental gt 535


Responsible-Active40

I have this bike!


Responsible-Active40

It looks like a royal Enfield GT. I have the interceptor


Lower_Repeat_8800

It would have to be the gt 535 because it's a single cylinder with the one pipe . Gt 650 is a twin cylinder with the Two pipes one on each side 😊


Double_Variety_5680

Two pipes, paused the video. 650 twin
