Royal Enfield has officially introduced the new Classic 650 Twin at EICMA 2024, marking the sixth model on its popular 650cc platform. Drawing inspiration from the Classic 350, this bike combines classic aesthetics with modern engineering.
The Classic 650 retains the familiar steel tubular spine frame, featuring a 648cc parallel-twin engine that delivers 46.4 BHP and 52.3 Nm of torque, paired with a smooth 6-speed gearbox equipped with an assist and slipper clutch. The bike’s suspension is handled by Showa forks in the front with 120 mm travel and dual shock absorbers at the rear, providing 90 mm of travel. It rides on 19-inch front and 18-inch rear wire-spoke wheels, complete with disc brakes and dual-channel ABS.
Styled for a retro appeal, the Classic 650 includes a round headlamp with position lights, teardrop fuel tank, dual peashooter exhausts, and a semi-digital console with Royal Enfield’s Tripper navigation. LED lighting, USB charging, and adjustable levers add modern touches, and riders can choose from four color options: Teal, Vallum Red, Bruntingthorpe Blue, and Black Chrome.
At 243 kg, the Classic 650 is Royal Enfield’s heaviest model yet. Built on a refined chassis from the Super Meteor 650 and Shotgun, it exudes both style and substance.
