    Royal Enfield 650cc Bobber Concept SG650 Debuts At EICMA 2021

    Royal Enfield SG650 Concept At EICMA 2021Royal Enfield has unveiled an all new 650cc motorcycle concept at the 2021 EICMA show in Milan – It is expected to be launched next year in India
    Back in 2018, Royal Enfield had unveiled bobber-styled Concept KX at EICMA. ‘838’ engraving on the engine indicated that the motor was of 838cc capacity. While Concept KX is not going into production stage anytime soon, its core design format will be utilized for the new 650cc cruiser from Royal Enfield. The latter has now made its global debut as SG650 at 2021 EICMA.
    After unveiling their 120th anniversary edition of Interceptor 650 and Continental GT650, Royal Enfield has now revealed an all new 650cc motorcycle concept called SG650. It is an all new motorcycle, which is likely to be transformed into a production spec bobber sometime next year.

    Royal Enfield 650cc Bobber Concept – SHOTGUN
    Retro-styled Royal Enfield 650cc bobber is equipped with features such as round headlamp, round rear-view mirrors, teardrop fuel tank design, single seat, dual exhaust and broad rear fender. Users can expect a comfortable riding stance, made possible with wide, elevated handlebar and forward-set footpegs.
    It is seen with dual instrument pods, a larger unit on the left and a smaller one on the right. The latter is Tripper navigation display unit, which was first seen with Meteor 350. It is possible that the 650cc bobber SG650 can get a new range of connectivity features. This would be expected from a premium bike that will be positioned above 650 twins in the company’s line-up.

    RE 650cc SG650 Bobber engine
    SG in the SG650 likely stands for Shotgun. Royal Enfield has trademarked the name Shotgun for an upcoming motorcycle. It is likely that the SG650 concept becomes Shotgun 650 upon launch. Powering the new Shotgun 650cc bobber will be the same 648cc, parallel twin motor that does duty on Interceptor and Continental GT. It makes 47 bhp at 7150 rpm and 52 Nm at 5250 rpm. It is mated to a constant mesh 6-speed gearbox.

    The engine has been designed for real world riding conditions. It suits city streets as well as effortless cruising on open roads. It is possible that the engine could be tweaked slightly on 650cc bobber to make it more suitable for long distance touring.
    While 650 twins have standard telescopic forks at front, the new 650cc cruiser is expected to get USD forks. In that case, it will be the first Royal Enfield bike to get this feature. USD forks will allow better handling and safer braking at high speeds.

    At the rear, the bike will get standard twin shock absorbers. Braking system could be the same as 650 twins – 320 mm disc at front and 240 mm at rear. Dual-channel ABS will be offered as standard. In India, Royal Enfield 650cc bobber is expected to be launched at around Rs 4 lakh (ex-sh). It will be a pretty good deal at this price point. The SG650 upon launch will also be sold in several international markets.
    Royal Enfield is also expected to launch a cruiser based on this bobber concept sometime next year. It remains to be seen the type of response the 650cc bobber cruiser generates. On its part, Royal Enfield will surely be looking to achieve the same level of success and popularity, as associated with 650 twins. More

    New Honda CB150X Vs CB200X – ADV Motorcycles Compared

    New Honda CB150X. Image – AutonetmagzPriced at IDR 32 million (around Rs 1.67 lakh), Honda CB150X is more expensive than the India-spec CB200X which is offered at Rs 1.44 lakh (ex-showroom)
    Honda recently added a new adventure tourer to its lineup which will serve as the entry-level model to the CBX range. The new CB150X beats CB200X to become the smallest adventure tourer by the Japanese brand. This bike made its maiden appearance recently at the ongoing 2021 Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS).
    Like the India-spec CB200X, the Indonesia-spec CB150X is more of a road-biased tourer than a full-fledged adventure bike. Both these bikes draw parallels to each other in a lot of ways. Let us look at some of them to distinguish these motorcycles apart.
    Honda CB200X
    Honda CB150X Vs CB200X – Design
    Both CB200X and CB150X are clothed versions of their respective naked counterparts- Hornet 2.0 and CB150R and flaunt a similar design philosophy of Honda’s CBX range. However, there are subtle variations that sets them apart. For starters, the front beak in CB150X is more pronounced than the one in CB200X, in addition to a taller windscreen in the former.
    Side panels on CB200X look sportier than CB150X. While both motorcycles feature beefy fuel tank extensions, the ones in CB150X look slightly more premium thanks to a brushed metal-like finish. Another major anomaly is that CB150X carries a much larger engine bash plate with a metallic finish in comparison to the smaller non-metallic unit in CB200X.
    Honda CB150X Vs CB200X
    Exhaust canister in CB200X is more stubby than the full-sized upswept unit in CB150X. This also helps the latter in water wading capabilities. Further, CB150X gets a ground clearance of 181mm, which is 14mm more than the CB200X. That said, the saddle of the former is more accessible at 805m in comparison to the seat height of 817mm in CB200X.
    Hardware Specs
    Both CB150X and CB200X are underpinned by a diamond-type frame. Suspension duties in CB150X are carried out by 37mm Showa inverted front forks with 150mm travel and a Pro-Link rear mono-shock. In CB200X, suspension setup comprises USD front forks and a rear mono-shock, although it might offer a little less travel than the setup offered in CB150X.
    Braking duties are handled by disc brakes at both ends in both motorcycles. Further, both ADVs ride on 17-inch alloy wheels which are of similar design. However, the ones rolling under CB200X are shod with slightly fatter 110-section front and 140-section tyres instead of 100-section front and 130-section rubber in CB150X. A 12-litre tank capacity ensures fuel supply in each motorcycle.
    Honda CB150X Vs CB200X
    Features & Engine Specs
    In terms of features, both CB150X and CB200X get all-LED lighting and a fully-digital LCD instrument console. Unfortunately, neither of them offers any kind of connectivity options but the one in CB150X offers more information and readouts than CB200X.
    The most critical difference lies at the heart of both these motorcycles. CB150X is powered by a 149.16cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine derived from CB150R. Although Honda hasn’t revealed exact engine output in the ADV, in the naked streetfighter, this motor kicks out 16.5 bhp at 9,000rpm and a peak torque of 13.8 Nm at 7,000rpm. This unit is paired with a 6-speed gearbox.
    On the other hand, CB200X is powered by a 184.4cc fuel-injected single-cylinder, air-cooled engine which is mated to a 5-speed gearbox. This unit pushes out 17 bhp at 8500rpm and 16.1Nm of peak torque at 6000rpm. More

It will be unveiled as Super Meteor and could borrow some styling bits from Meteor 350. As for the hardware, Super Meteor will be using the same engine as 650 twins.
    The bike has a retro profile with features such as round headlamp, round rear view mirrors, and broad rear fenders. A large windscreen can be seen at front, which is both functionally and visually relevant. Users can expect comfortable rides, as the bike has forward-set footpegs and ergonomically placed handlebar.

    2022 Bajaj Pulsar RS 250 On New Gen Platform – Render In 6 Colours

    2022 Bajaj Pulsar RS 250 – Render
    Bajaj will be gradually phasing out the older generation Pulsar motorcycles with the new-gen models in the future which may comprise a Pulsar RS 250
    The launch of the new Pulsar 250 siblings- N250 and F250 has set the podium for Bajaj Auto to bring in the new generation Pulsar models. Two decades back when the Pulsar sub-brand was launched, the company started with Pulsar 150 and Pulsar 180. This time around Bajaj has taken a top-to-down approach by launching the biggest model first.
    The Chakan-based bikemaker has revealed that there will be multiple new models based on the new chassis which will be replacing the older generation of Pulsar models. With two iterations of the quarter-litre Pulsar already hitting the market, Bajaj might contemplate a third one by introducing Pulsar RS 250.
    A fully-faired version of Pulsar 250 might complete the flagship lineup of quarter-litre Pulsars. The RS 250 would sit right on top of the Pulsar portfolio as the most premium model followed by the semi-faired F250 and the naked N250. Pulsar 250 has been digitally re-imagined as a fully-faired sports bike by design artist Pratyush Rout wrapped around multiple colour options.
    2022 Bajaj Pulsar RS 250 – Digital Rendering
    The digital renderings of RS 250 show a few visual similarities with its semi-faired sibling like the same single-beam projector headlight flanked by twin LED DRLs. Unlike F250, RS 250 flaunts a fully-faired body that covers most of the internals and running gear and only exposes a part of the engine, frame and rear subframe. The motorcycle also gets a chunkier front mudguard thus enhancing its ‘big bike’ appeal.
    2022 Bajaj Pulsar RS 250 – Render
    Another visible variation is a larger front windscreen which would provide greater protection from wind blasts at higher speeds. The fuel tank in RS 250 looks a lot beefier than the one in F250 or N250 and mimics contemporary high-end sports bikes. The tail section is identical to the current 250cc Pulsars with a slightly raked pillion seat and split grab rails.
    Other visual similarities include a split-seating setup, a stubby exhaust canister, an engine underbelly cowl and a rear tyre hugger. Colour-coded alloy wheel rims have been carried forward from the 250cc siblings that add to the visual appeal of Pulsar RS 660. Design of the alloy wheels has been updated as well which provides further distinction between F250 and RS 250.
    Similar mechanicals to N250, F250
    Powering RS 250 will be the same 249cc single-cylinder, SOHC, two-valve, oil-cooled engine which kicks out 24.5 bhp and 21.5 Nm of peak torque. This engine is paired with a five-speed gearbox with assist and slipper clutch. Hardware configurations of the motorcycle also appear to be identical to the other two siblings.
    This includes a suspension setup that comprises 37mm telescopic forks at front and mono-shock at rear. Braking duties will be handled by single disc brakes at both ends aided by a single-channel ABS. Whether or not Bajaj will introduce such a motorcycle in future can only be verified by the company.
