The Royal Enfield 650 Twins are set to launch today in India at an event in Goa. Ahead of the launch, Royal Enfield has revealed that the 650 Twins will be available with 40 official accessories optionally.
On 18 September, a fully accessorised Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 was spied entirely undisguised. Out of the 40 official accessories, around 32 are shared between the 650 twins while 8 fitments are model specific. The fixtures will be available at launch, although those will be offered optionally.
