Riding in the city is a specialist sport when it comes to motorcycles, particularly for sportier models like the Continental GT 650. In urban environments, the bike’s weight, turning radius, and low speed maneuverability are all important. Another concern is heat management in stop and go traffic, and air cooled engines are particularly vulnerable in this respect. The use of a GT 650 in congested areas can be greatly helped or hindered by the feel of the clutch and throttle response at low road speeds. Moreover, the riding position, as more aggressive than conventional motorcycles, could influence visibility and riding comfort in situations such as tight lines maneuver and stop at traffic lights. Riders also wonder how fuel efficient the bike is in urban conditions, and how easy it is to lane split or filter through traffic (if legal).
