The Royal Enfield Twins have finally landed in Australia and today I got to spend the afternoon on both Continental GT 650 Cafe Racer and the Interceptor 650 from Royal Enfield.

James from Penrith Motorcycle center popped these 2 bikes in the van and drove them to the Northern Beaches for me to test.
