Royal Enfield Classic 650 – The Legend Evolves
The Royal Enfield Classic 650 marks a new chapter in the brand’s legendary Classic series — combining the elegance of vintage design with the strength of modern engineering. Drawing inspiration from the iconic Classic 350, this new 650cc model takes refinement, performance, and comfort to an entirely new level.
Engine & Performance
At its heart, the Classic 650 houses a 648cc parallel-twin, air/oil-cooled engine that produces around 47 PS of power and 52 Nm of torque. This refined motor is paired with a 6-speed gearbox and an assist & slipper clutch for smoother shifts and effortless control, whether cruising on highways or gliding through city streets.
The twin-cylinder engine is known for its linear power delivery, offering a smooth and relaxed riding experience. Its characteristic exhaust note — a deep, throaty twin growl — enhances the sense of freedom and heritage that Royal Enfield riders love.
With fuel injection technology, the Classic 650 ensures excellent throttle response, reduced emissions, and consistent performance, making every ride more efficient and exciting.
Design & Styling
The Royal Enfield Classic 650 retains the timeless look of its predecessor while introducing subtle modern updates. The bike features:
A teardrop fuel tank with hand-painted pinstripes
Signature chrome-finished twin exhausts
Rounded LED headlamp integrated with “tiger-eye” DRLs
Wire-spoke wheels that emphasize retro charm
Curved fenders and classic metal side panels for authenticity
Every inch of the motorcycle reflects craftsmanship — from its polished aluminum switchgear to its premium paint finishes available in multiple elegant shades such as Chrome Red, Black Pearl, and Royal Green.
Comfort & Ergonomics
The Classic 650 isn’t just about looks — it’s designed for long-lasting comfort. The wide handlebar, neutral footpeg positioning, and well-cushioned seat ensure an upright riding posture suitable for both city and highway rides.
The ergonomic seat height of 800 mm and spacious seat design make it ideal for riders of different heights. The bike’s dual-seat configuration with the option to remove the pillion seat adds flexibility for solo touring.
With high-quality suspension — 43mm front telescopic forks and twin rear shock absorbers — it soaks up bumps with ease, ensuring a smooth and stable ride on rough Indian roads.
Chassis, Suspension & Handling
Built on a tubular steel frame, the Classic 650 offers excellent balance and rigidity. The bike’s geometry has been fine-tuned for superior stability and predictable cornering.
The 19-inch front and 18-inch rear wire-spoke wheels, combined with premium tubeless tires, ensure grip and control even at higher speeds.
The overall ride quality is plush and confidence-inspiring — true to Royal Enfield’s cruiser DNA.
Braking & Safety
The Classic 650 comes equipped with 320mm front and 300mm rear disc brakes, paired with dual-channel ABS for consistent and controlled braking performance.
This system prevents wheel lock-up during hard braking, enhancing safety on both wet and dry surfaces. Combined with the bike’s weight distribution and stable suspension, it ensures a secure and enjoyable ride at all times.
Technology & Modern Features
While maintaining its old-school soul, the Classic 650 embraces the future with a host of smart features:
Tripper Navigation system for turn-by-turn guidance via smartphone connectivity.
USB Type-C charging port for on-the-go convenience.
LED lighting setup including headlamp, tail lamp, and indicators for better visibility.
