    Royal Enfield Classic 650 Twin Name Trademarked – Launch In 2024?

    Royal Enfield Classic 650 Twin Name TrademarkedThe upcoming BSA Goldstar 650 is the most appropriate rival for Royal Enfield Classic 650 Twin owing to their respective genresOne of the most popular classic motorcycle manufacturers in the world, Royal Enfield, has been expanding its portfolio to include a variety of new motorcycles. These new motorcycles are also seen across a variety of powertrains too. Among the upcoming motorcycles is Classic 650 and it seems to have gotten its production-spec name finalised.Royal Enfield Classic 650 Name TrademarkedAmong the slew of Royal Enfield test mules, the most obvious ones to launch next are Guerrilla 450 (a stripped-down version of Himalayan 450) and Classic 650. As the name suggests, Classic 650 is a 650cc version of Classic 350. Now, Royal Enfield has finalised the name of this upcoming motorcycle and will be called Classic 650 Twin.The new name does a better job of establishing a distinction in naming scheme. Because both 350 and 650 use the word Classic in them. The distinctions, ‘650’ and ‘Twin’, in names, should establish a distinction. Royal Enfield did something similar with Super Meteor 650 as well, where we see 650 and Super being distinctions from their 350cc counterpart.Word mark they are going for is Royal Enfield Classic 650 Twin and the filing was done earlier this month on 9/5/2024. Word mark was filed by Royal Enfield’s parent company Eicher Motors Limited and the application status read ‘Formalities Chk Pass’ and is yet to be journalled.Royal Enfield Classic 650 Twin Trademark ApplicationWhat to expect?Royal Enfield Classic 650 Twin has been spotted many times now. Bike’s testing is in full swing and is likely to launch in 2024. It takes a similar design as its 350 counterpart, Classic 350, but looks proportionately carried over to fit the larger frame. The dual pea-shooter-style exhaust is finished in chrome for that classic look. Overall execution looks pretty nice.Speaking of frame, it is based on Super Meteor 650’s platform and not Interceptor 650’s platform. This chassis is also shared with the newly launched Shotgun 650. However, Classic 650 Twin is slightly under-kitted than Super Meteor 650 and Shotgun 650. Hence Classic 650 Twin might be positioned between Interceptor 650 and Super Meteor 650 in pricing.In that regard, we see conventional RSU telescopic front forks along with a conventional twin shock setup at the rear. Few 650cc motorcycles from RE (on sale & upcoming) get USD telescopic front forks and rear mono-shock suspension. Classic 650 Twin borrows the same tail light assembly from Classic 350, instead of more expensive 650s.Royal Enfield Classic 650 TwinClassic 650 Twin is spotted with LED headlights and is likely to miss out on Royal Enfield’s Tripper Screen as well. If Classic 350’s sales numbers are anything to go by, Classic 650 Twin has all the ingredients to be the best-selling 650cc motorcycle.Powertrains-wise, Royal Enfield Classic 650 Twin will get the same 648cc parallel twin oil-cooled engine from other 650s on sale. Performance metrics will be around 47 bhp and 52 Nm and this engine will get a slipper clutch and a 6-speed gearbox. More

    Royal Enfield Hires Ex-Ola, Ducati Personnel For EV Business – Electric Motorcycle Launch Plans

    Royal Enfield Himalayan Electric ConceptFor best outcomes, Royal Enfield is developing its EV lineup as a separate vertical, managed by a dedicated team of engineersWhile Royal Enfield is a popular global brand, the transition to electric presents significant challenges. This is especially true for the electric motorcycle segment that hasn’t shown any strong market response. Royal Enfield is investing significant time and efforts to ensure that its electric motorcycles are a class apart and not merely an ICE to EV project.Royal Enfield electric motorcycle launch plansAn exact launch timeline has not been provided. However, Royal Enfield has stated that its first electric motorcycle will not be launched in the current financial year. Eicher Motors’ managing director Siddhartha Lal said that currently there’s not much demand for electric motorcycles.Royal Enfield Electric Motorcycle RenderLal also talked about design and development challenges, especially related to battery packs. Essentially, viability of electric motorcycles will increase when battery packs become cheaper, smaller and lighter. He further mentioned that they have something interesting coming up that can be potentially helpful in their development process. But specific details have not been provided.Royal Enfield has created a strong electric vehicle development team to fastrack its EV plans. The team comprises a few hundred engineers. Research on newer, advanced battery packs could be one of the key focus areas for Royal Enfield. With a technology developed inhouse, it becomes easier to manage costs and introduce changes whenever required.Royal Enfield Himalayan Electric ConceptWhile a launch timeline is not available, it is apparent that design and development work is going on in full swing. Royal Enfield has made significant progress in their EV journey. They have a complete blueprint of the product plan and its future roadmap. Challenges linked to the battery pack will probably be sorted in the near future. It will allow development of more practical machines that can appeal to the mass market. Something similar to electric scooters that are registering bumper sales month after month.Ex Ola, Ducati personnel onboardedIn its efforts to create a world-class product, Royal Enfield has hired some top executives. The electric vehicle development team is led by Umesh Krishnappa, who had earlier served as the CTO at Ola Electric. Ola electric scooters are currently the top selling electric two-wheelers in the country. Another key hire is Mario Alvisi, who had earlier worked with Ducati as the Chief Growth Officer for the company’s electric vehicle business.Royal Enfield EV product detailsAt last year’s EICMA, Royal Enfield had unveiled their Himalayan EV prototype. This prototype is being used to test various electric powertrains and other parts and components. Royal Enfield is also working on L1A and L1K EV products. The former could be one of the lightest electric vehicle platforms. It derives inspiration from the Flying Flea petrol powered motorcycle that was used in World War II by the British Army.In its EV journey, Royal Enfield has also partnered with Stark Future. The Spanish company focuses on manufacturing high-performance electric motorcycles. Royal Enfield has acquired a ~10% stake in Stark Future and has plans to co-develop electric motorcycles. Royal Enfield electric motorcycles will be initially manufactured at its existing plant. Later, production capacity will be increased via a new plant in Cheyyar, Tamil Nadu.Source More

    Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Clearest Spy Shots Leaked Online

    New Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 SpiedThe Roadster style Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 will rival the likes of Speed 400, Honda CB300R, Yezdi Roadster, Harley X440 and Mavrick 440Ahead of launch, Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 (previously speculated to be called either Scram 450 or Roadster 450) test mules have been making rounds around company’s facilities in Tamil Nadu. The recent images of upcoming Guerilla 450 show the bike in utmost clarity and it seems to very close to production. Let’s take a look.Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Clearest Spy Shots EmergeIndia’s most successful and iconic classic bike manufacturer, Royal Enfield, has stepped into a new era of engineering capabilities with the launch of Himalayan 450. This motorcycle debuted a capable new platform powered by Sherpa 450 engine. Second instalment of the RE 450 saga will emerge in the form of Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450.Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Clearest Spy ShotsThere have been multiple instances of Guerrilla 450 sightings from the past couple of years now. Royal Enfield has been developing Guerrilla 450 alongside Himalayan 450. However, only the Himalayan 450 has broken covers and Guerrilla 450 has yet to.Recent spy shots from Drivespark are some of the clearest and show many new attributes that were not visible in previous spy shots. For starters, we can see a new fuel tank, which is different to the one we saw on Himalayan 450. So capacity is likely to be less than 17L seen on Himalayan 450.Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Clearest Spy ShotsThere is quite a bit of camouflage seen on the bike to hide its identity. But the bike’s main frame and subframe are exposed and are almost identical to that of Himalayan 450, sans the added structures to mount luggage, panniers and the likes.Royal Enfield Scram 450 (Guerrilla 450) RenderChanges in componentry include RSU telescopic front forks with gaiters, a roadster-style handlebar, a single-piece seat, along with smaller wheels than Himalayan. These wheels, however, are alloy wheels and come fitted with road-biased tubeless tyres. Also, they’re fatter than Himalayan’s too.What to expect?Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 lacks a front windshield and the beak. Overall design fits the Roadster genre perfectly and is a handsome-looking machine. Round ORVMs, round LED headlights lend it that necessary neo-retro look. Other cycle parts like fancy swingarm and large disc brakes with dual channel ABS are seen on Guerrilla 450 as well.2024 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Logo TrademarkedPowering the bike, we have the same Sherpa 450 engine. This engine is the first from Royal Enfield to pack modern engineering like DOHC 4V head and liquid cooling. 6-speed gearbox, slipper clutch, ride-by-wire throttle and other attributes are first for any single-cylinder Royal Enfield too.Source More
