Royal Enfield is gearing up to launch the upcoming Guerrilla 450 on July 17 2024. And right before that, the bike has been spotted at a service center.
The bike spotted is the one with the yellow and black dual-tone colour scheme. The bike’s name is painted in black while the Royal Enfield badging is painted in a striking purple colour. It has a slash across the fuel tank and continues to the midsection as well and separates the yellow and the black colours in a coherent manner. Also, the manufacturer has teased the bike again on its social media handle, where a rider is seen performing a burnout. A white and blue colour scheme can be spotted slightly in the teaser. Royal Enfield has hidden a couple of easter eggs in the teaser. The number plate shows the word "GRR" which seems to be the nickname of the bike and is also one of the hashtags used by the manufacturer while promoting the bike. The "1901" number is the year when the first Royal Enfield bike was produced.
The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450’s round, triple-clamp mounted headlight, fork gaiters and the rounded tank design look similar to that of the Hunter 350, while the rear section with the tail light integrated turn indicators and the exhaust looks similar to that of the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450.
Powering the upcoming bike will be the 452cc, liquid-cooled Sherpa engine found in the Himalayan 450. The suspension setup consists of a telescopic fork and a monoshock, while braking duties are taken care of by disc brakes at both ends. The top-end variant will get the same round TFT instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity and Google Maps navigation seen on the Himalayan 450. The more affordable variant will likely get the analogue speedometer and a digital inset setup seen on the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650.
The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 is expected to be priced around the Rs 2.20 lakh - Rs 2.30 lakh (ex-showroom) mark and will rival the likes of the Triumph Speed 400, Husqvarna Svartpilen 401, Hero Mavrick 440, Harley-Davidson X440 and QJ Motor SRC 500.
