Gear Up For A Sporty 650cc Cruiser From Royal Enfield

It is no secret that Royal Enfield has been working on a cruiser based on the 650 platform. Likely to be called the Roadster 650, the bike has been spotted testing in near-production avatar a couple of times. Now, another test mule has been spotted with subtle changes, hinting that the manufacturer will be offering a sporty variant of the cruiser.

The first thing that’ll grab your attention is the absence of chrome. While the Roadster 650 spotted testing had chrome exhausts, instrument cluster and headlamp cluster, the sporty variant ditches all of that in favour of an all-black treatment. Upon closer inspection, you’ll notice that the bike also sports a different headlamp bezel that the Roadster 650. Even the tank and alloy wheel design isn’t the same as seen on the Roadster 650 earlier.

The Royal Enfield Roadster 650 is expected to arrive in the second quarter of 2021 and the sportier variant is likely to accompany the cruiser. The Roadster 650’s price is likely to start from Rs. 3.5 lakh (ex-showroom). The bike will take on the Kawasaki Vulcan S in our market.
