To boost both performance and style, Harris Performance, a Royal Enfield subsidiary, provided billet aluminium triple clamps, fully adjustable clip-ons, rear set footpegs and a sleek fairing inspired by the Harris Magnum racer. This fairing incorporates a round LED headlamp with a clear screen, giving the bike a distinctive look.

The custom Continental GT 650 has an upgraded suspension system with NTR R3 fully adjustable rear springs and Nitron's complete cartridge front forks. It rides on Bridgestone Battlax BT46 tyres, mounted on 36-spoke wheels made by Central Wheel Components of Birmingham. The exhaust system, sourced from Baak, reduces the bike's weight by 12.8 kg, improving its performance. The vibrant livery, designed by Royal Enfield's in-house graphics team, is inspired by Alexander Calder's iconic BMW 3.0 CSL Le Mans car. Urban Rider enhanced the bike with new wiring, grips, mirrors and indicators, while Hel Performance upgraded the hydraulic lines with stainless steel braided lines. Additional custom features include CNC luggage holders and bags made by Fastec Racing and Malle London.
