Royal Enfield has taken the wraps off the Himalayan 450 at EICMA 2023 in Milan, Italy. It will replace the current Himalayan 411.
The Himalayan 450 is powered by a 452cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that puts out 39.47 BHP @ 8,000 rpm and 40 Nm @ 5,500 rpm. The engine is paired with a 6-speed gearbox via a slip and assist clutch.
The Himalayan 450 is based on a twin-spar tubular frame, with an open-cartridge upside-down fork at the front and an adjustable mono-shock at the rear. The bike rides on wire-spoke wheels with 21-inch rims at the front and 17-inch rims at the rear. The brake setup consists of a single 320 mm disc at the front and a 270 mm disc at the rear.
The standard seat height of the Himalayan 450 is 825-845 mm, but it can be lowered to 805-825 mm with the lower seat. The bike weighs 196 kg and comes with a 17-litre fuel tank.
In terms of features, the Himalayan 450 comes with a digital instrument console featuring a round TFT colour screen. It offers Bluetooth connectivity and has integrated Google Maps for navigation. The bike is also equipped with ride-by-wire, switchable dual-channel ABS.
The Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 will be launched in the Indian market on November 24, 2023. It will also be sold in Europe and the USA.
