The Royal Enfield Continental GT 535 originally launched in Yellow and Red paint schemes making it the first Royal Enfield motorcycle to be given a yellow option. The company later in March 2015 introduced a black colour option. The yellow coloured trim was discontinued in January 2016, and a green shade was brought in.
The Royal Enfield Continental GT 535 is powered by a 535 cc air-cooled, fuel injected mill coupled to a 5-speed gearbox. Essentially a re-bored version of the 499 cc mill seen in the Bullet 500, Classic 500 and Thunderbird 500, the engine is capable of producing 29.1 bhp of maximum power at 5,100 rpm and 44 Nm of peak torque at 4,000 rpm.
